Has your salary gone up?
Last month, TravelMole reported the good news that average salaries and job vacancies in the UK travel industry are both on the rise.
Latest figures from London-based recruitment firm C&M showed that after a slight fall in March, travel job salaries rebounded strongly in April to rise by 1.44%.
Year on year, salaries have risen 15%, although the three-month average figures (which commonly produce a more reliable indicator of recent trends) showed a gentler rise of 8% year on year.
So, in our latest TravelMole Poll, we thought we’d find out if you were reaping the benefits of this trend.
We asked you: Travel salaries rise again – has yours?
In response, 38% of you said "yes," but sadly 62% of you said "no."
For those of you who said "no," perhaps now’s the time to ask your boss the question. Good luck.
