Commerce & Industry Temporary Recruitment Market Update

Thu 15 May 2008

Recruitment Market Update - Kira Owen, Director, Martin Ward Anderson

The impact of an uncertain economy has resulted in higher demand for Commerce and Industry temporary workers as we continue to witness the movement of quality candidates from sectors more directly affected by the market. Whilst recruitment within Commerce and Industry as a whole is withstanding the fall out of uncertain market conditions, there will undoubtedly be an impact on the recruitment requirements of certain organisations. The demand appears to be in change management, cost and performance analysis projects or systems implementation alongside traditional temporary requirements. The question of recruiting rightly and wrongly will become even more business critical as the market waits to improve.


The London temporary and contract commerce and industry division of Martin Ward Anderson has enjoyed some of the fastest year on year growth over the last 3 years. Martin Ward Anderson's ability to attract, develop and retain recruitment consultants means that we boast over 50 years of financial recruitment experience as a division, providing a quality, efficient and cost effective service to all our clients.

Whether it be a large multinational with high volume finance job requirements or a smaller business in need of a one off temporary or interim senior accountant; success has been driven by the team's ability to tailor services and provide outstanding candidates to meet the needs of our commerce and industry clients such as  BP, Live Nation, GSK, GKN,  BT, Carphone Warehouse, Shell, Anglo American, VISA, Reuters, Innocent Drinks, John Freida, GE.

Please don't hesitate to send us a vacancy, or to discuss your recruitment requirements, please call us on 020 7747 9500 or email Kira Owen directly.

Kira Owen
Operations Director, London, Commerce & Industry
