Redundancies are slowing and the companies who have made people redundant in the last year have re-structured and discovered they need new talent to move their business forward
Delta Consultants, a recruitment specialist for commercial appointments in science, medical devices and process engineering, says it has experienced a busy time in the last month with numbers of new vacancies rising rapidly.
Ann Pinn, managing director, says: "We had a quiet March and April and then more companies started to recruit and now the vacancies are coming in in a steady stream.
"Although redundancies are still happening, they are slowing and the companies who have made people redundant in the last year have re-structured and discovered they need new talent to move their business forward. "We, in recruitment, are the first to feel any positive trends or upturns in the economy and this is good news. "Even the engineering sector which has been quiet for a while is starting to recruit again.
"We are very positive about recruitment for the rest of 2003."
