Even though there are still restrictions due to COVID there are still over 180,000 jobs available right now in the UK, waiting for the right candidate. The world is getting more used to working from home or adapting to its environment. Even with the impact of COVID-19 still looming over some companies’ heads, a lot of businesses have just taken the opportunity to move and adapt into this new world and look for the right people to fill roles that they now need, that they may have never needed before,

So, after researching the current market, these are the current sections that we have found are going to be popular during February and are currently looking to hire new employees.

Programmers and Software Developers

As this pandemic has taken over the way people conduct their lives, there has been a big push for companies to adopt a more digital way of working. This means that people who are good developers, software engineers and programmers are being picked up for very good salaries because of the skills that they possess and how that, in turn, can help companies during this business shift.

This ranges from people that are IT-based to individuals that are willing to learn the skill to further themselves. Education like this too can be done online so there is even a possibility of moving into that area even if you do not have the qualifications yet.

Examples of companies that are currently looking for people in these roles:

Sky

Samsung

Marks & Spencer

Health Services and Residential Care

Job roles in the health service are usually in high demand but there are more and more people needing help from care workers and health specialists so this demand is only increasing. Also, the wage regarding this work is increasing too which is making it more appealing to the general market.

Though this is not seen as the easiest career path for people to take, it does have a very fulfilling side that a lot of people who move into this sector do love.

Examples of companies that are currently looking for people in these roles:

NHS

Shaw Healthcare

Waverley House

Graphics Design / Designers

With the world moving more towards the internet than ever before, it has opened a whole new world for graphics designers to make a better income with the job that they love. Whether this is logos, website design, banners, social media content and much more there is an array of skills that can be utilised for most businesses that conduct any sort of business on the internet.  

Also, there is a wide range of salaries that are available in accordance with the skill level of the individuals. This is amazing as there is a lot of potentials for people to grow within their roles and attain better salaries.

Examples of companies that are currently looking for people in these roles:

Boohoo / Karen Millen
