Travel job placements at second-highest level ever in April
Travel industry job placements remained at historic highs in April, according to the latest figures from C&M Travel Recruitment and C&M Executive Recruitment.
Despite falling 14% from March’s record high, April recorded the second highest number of travel job placements since the index began in January 2012.
Last month’s total was up by 48% from April 2019, and by 30% from April 2018.
Following an all-time high in March, there was a dip in newly created travel jobs in April.
However, last month’s figure was still above pre-pandemic equivalents at 33% from April 2019.
Similarly, after March’s eight-month high, candidate volumes also slipped back in April to record their lowest monthly figure of the year so far.
However, volumes were still up by 27% from April 2021.
Barbara Kolosinska, Managing Director at C&M Travel Recruitment and C&M Executive Recruitment, said: “2022 continues to be a record breaker with more new jobs being filled in the past two months than we have ever seen before.”
“The market is extraordinarily busy at the moment.”
