T+O+M BLOG

In case you missed the T+O+M Talk video, here's a summary from Jade McNamee on recruitment activity for Investment Management at the start of 2023. 

• After a busy start to the year, hiring needs are starting to slow down, a trend that is predicted to continue for the rest of the year

• Salaries are beginning to stabilise as a result of fewer jobs despite it still being a candidate short market, so candidate should adjust their expectations accordingly

• As well as being open about what skill sets are being sought, employers should conduct quick and concise interview processes and outline the selling points of their company if they want to secure high calibre candidates.

• Recent mergers and acquisitions in the superannuation space is leading to plenty of project work

• The skills sets currently in demand are:

  o   Tax Accountants – in the run up to year end

  o   Programming skills for more analytical roles (VBA, Python & SQL)

  o   Technical and Systems
