INSIGHTS
Levels of growth experienced were the strongest since
2008 and we witnessed consistency throughout the
year in terms of hiring in both contract and permanent
requirements…Early indicators from IT departments
suggest that the evolution of virtualisation, business
intelligence, cloud computing and analytics are going to
be growth areas for 2013.

UK OVERVIEW
Welcome to the Hudson IT Salary & Employment
Insights for 2013. We will give you an overview of all
our UK results before focusing in more depth on the
IT market. As your trusted advisor, we take pride in
our comprehensive understanding of the recruitment
business and factors affecting it including the
expectations of organisations and their people.
The challenging market conditions faced by UK businesses
in recent years show little signs of easing and businesses
are being encouraged to adapt to these conditions. Over the
next 12 months, UK organisations need to equip themselves
with the people they need to move through the next phase
of their economic cycles. Never before has it been more vital
and beneficial for organisations and job seekers to align
their expectations.
To ensure we have a complete understanding of how
organisations feel about the upcoming year, we surveyed
employers and employees to ascertain what impact the
challenging economic environment is having on businesses.
We looked at its effect on work practices, compensation and
benefits and, importantly, employee engagement, morale,
loyalty and job seeking behaviour.
The survey revealed that workplaces are under stress and
employees are expected to shoulder more responsibility.
When asked what happens when a member of staff leaves,
both employers and employees agreed that less than a
quarter of roles were replaced and when a colleague is not
replaced, 72% of employers and 79% of employees said,
the additional workload was distributed amongst the
remaining team.

DEMOGRAPHICS
In addition to this employees are working longer hours with 43%
saying they work over 40 hours a week and 25% saying that
their hours have increased in the past 12 months. Nevertheless,
people are optimistic about the year ahead with 52% reporting
that morale in their office had increased or remained the same.
With over three quarters of employees surveyed categorising
themselves as passively or actively seeking a new role,
organisations are encouraged to look at creative benefit
packages to attract and retain the best talent. The survey
highlighted a level of disparity between the benefits employees
are seeking and what is being offered by the market.
Organisations who employ a level of flexibility with regard
to benefit offerings could quite well find themselves at an
advantage in 2013.
In spite of the current economic challenges, employers are
prophesying encouraging movements for the coming 12
months. Nearly half of employers are confident there is the
potential for growth within their organisations and over a third
are predicting head count increases in 2013. Rewarding high
performers looks to be a business priority in 2013 and financial
reward is back on the table with 72% expecting an increase in
salary budgets and nearly half intend to award bonuses in 2013.
Read on to see the full results of our UK and sector wide
Salary  Employment Insights survey, as well as proposed
salaries and recruitment trends for IT for 2013.
Methodology
The salary survey was conducted over a three week period
in January 2013, in which Hudson surveyed employers and
employees online. In-house recruitment specialists and
managing directors were surveyed for the purpose of gaining
detailed regional and sector specific employment overviews.
Current salary information was derived from Hudson’s
internal database and quality checked against survey data.

Recent months have been defined by talk of
economic uncertainty and the picture is still evolving.
With the Bank of England forecasting growth to
remain below 1% and a eurozone outlook that
remains troubled it’s not surprising that economic
uncertainty is causing many businesses to start
making contingency plans.
Whilst the general outlook for the economy is a cautious one,
the outlook for business growth and employment is predicted
to gradually improve across the UK in 2013. According to
the British Chamber of Commerce, business investment
recovered strongly in the last two quarters of 2012 and is
predicted to grow by 4.3% in 2013. This investment will likely
help stimulate growth in the labour market leading to the
creation of new jobs.
The future of the UK economy remains unclear. To succeed
businesses must remain agile, adapt to a slow growth
environment and respond to evolving economic conditions.
Workplaces remain under stress
The demanding economic environment looks set to have a
continued effect on workplaces with two thirds of employers
believing their businesses will face tougher market
conditions in 2013.
Of those surveyed, 42% reported redundancies in the
past 12 months, while 64% reported greater pressures on
budgets, 55% observed increases in employee workload and
54% faced more stringent headcount approvals.
It’s not only employers that are under pressure in this difficult
business environment; 1 in 4 employees report an increase
in their working hours and 43% now work more than 40
hours per week.
Continued pressure on budgets has meant that only 24%
of employers are always replacing roles if a member of the
team leaves. In cases where the roles are not replaced,
72% of employers distribute the work amongst the remaining
team members, with only 5% employing a contractor and 9%
absorbing the extra workload themselves.
Nearly half of employees said they are more stressed at
work than a year ago, so it is perhaps not surprising to find a
similar trend in morale levels with 48% saying they are more
pessimistic than 12 months ago.
Over three quarters of surveyed employees are actively
(40%) or passively (36%) seeking new jobs. Of those
surveyed, 57% anticipate changing jobs within 12 months.
Levels of employee engagement at work are almost
a perfect three way split between more engaged, less
engaged and neutral so it is perhaps surprising to also find
that 62% are reported as saying that they would recommend
their employer.
Rewarding high performance is a business priority
While employees are expected to shoulder more
responsibility, greater workloads and are working longer
hours, the majority of employers appear to be acknowledging
this by awarding pay rises.
Most employers (72%) awarded pay rises in the last 12
months and seven in ten anticipate a further increase at the
next salary review. The majority (59%) also indicated that
modest pay increases of 1-5% were likely to be awarded in
2013.
Interestingly, just over a third of employees believe an
increase in salary is warranted in 2013 because their skills
and experience are in high demand outside the organisation.

2013 SALARY  EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS6
The main reasons businesses increased salaries were to
retain high performers and ensure pay parity. Over half of
the employers (53%) surveyed indicated they would reward
high performers with pay rises and a third (34%) are willing
to award a pay rise in order to keep up with movements in
living costs.
Nearly half (49%) of employers indicated they were worried
about losing staff and this concern may be warranted as
43% of employees felt they were inadequately rewarded for
their increasing responsibility to the business.
Four in ten employees were awarded a bonus in 2012 and
the majority of these equated to between 1-10% of their
salary. Larger bonuses were not unheard of with 15% of
those awarded being greater than 20% of salary.
Despite the tough environment 47% of employers plan to
award bonuses in the next 12 months, with the majority
indicating bonuses would be awarded based on either
individual (68%) or company performance (67%). A further
26% indicated they were yet to decide whether they would
award bonuses, which correlates with the uncertainty in the
market.

Employees are looking for well-rounded packages
It is not only employers that are feeling the effects of the
economic turmoil; employees are all too aware of the
on-going economic uncertainty and the effects it has on
their lives. Many employees are valuing job security and
progression opportunities and are less inclined to expect
large salary or bonus packages.
When asked to rank important aspects when considering
new job opportunities, employees demonstrated two definite
preferences for increased salaries and a better work / life
balance. The majority (85%) of employees rated more pay
within their top five, interestingly, the expectation of the level
of increase was modest, with 71% indicating an acceptable
salary increase for external roles was less than 15%.
The second highest consideration was better work / life
balance (74%) with 29% of employees ranking this as the
number one reason they are attracted to a new opportunity.
In general, employees showed a tendency towards non-
monetary based aspects when considering new jobs. When
asked to pick from a list of 17 aspects they look for when
changing jobs, 61% of employees picked a non-monetary
based option as their number one option.
Company culture, convenient location and respected
senior / managerial staff were all cited as factors in
employees’ decision making processes. This suggests firms
that choose to focus their attention on a combination of base
salaries and tailored benefit packages are likely to be more
attractive to prospective employees.
Achieving a benefit balance
With budget squeezes becoming an all too common
commercial reality, businesses are showing a commitment to
offering a range of benefits as part of the package. But it is
important to get it right – 1 in 5 employees indicated a level
of dissatisfaction with their current benefit package and there
appears to be some disparity between what is offered and
what is attractive to employees.
Employers would be advised to look to adopt a range of
non-monetary benefits to attract and retain talent. Only 49%
of employers offer flexible working opportunities, whereas
65% of employees rated this in their top five most attractive
benefits.
After base annual salary, the top benefits offered by
employers are contributory pension plan (72%), bonus and
recognition (67%) and health benefits / insurances (54%).
However, with the government NEST pension scheme being
rolled out over the next few years, companies will no longer
be able to offer this as an optional benefit so we will likely
see a shift here.
When we asked employees to nominate which benefits were
most attractive to them, 86% placed bonus and recognition in
their top five followed by flexible working opportunities (65%)
and contributory pension plan (54%). Those least preferred
included child care and paid maternity / paternity leave.

Growth is predicted
Despite the current economic uncertainty, 48% of employers
stated that they believe their department has growth potential
in 2013. This growth is expected to manifest in a number
of different ways. One third of employers believe their
departments will see an increase in headcount in the next
twelve months, while 44% expect headcounts to remain
stagnant. 19% of employers reported an expected decline
in headcount in 2013, and it is worth noting that this figure
is significantly down from the 30% who reported the same
expectation last year.
The general outlook for 2013 is one
of cautious optimism. Businesses
are reporting expected growth but
the commercial reality could be that
employees will shoulder even greater
responsibilities, as businesses strive
to achieve this under the pressure of
already tight budgets.
Employees are taking on more
responsibility and working longer hours,
resulting in increased workplace stress
and pessimism which could explain the
large number of employees looking to
move on in 2013.
Employees feel they are not being
adequately rewarded for increased
workload and responsibilities, and want
greater rewards. With pressure on
remuneration budgets, businesses should
increase their focus on non-monetary
benefits as a way of retaining and
incentivising staff.
Stable jobs with flexible benefits are a
key priority for employees rather than
ever-increasing salaries. Results indicate
that non-monetary benefits alone are
enough to sway job seekers’ decisions.
Employers who focus their attention on a
combination of base salaries and tailored
benefit packages are likely to be more
attractive to prospective employees.

2013 SALARY  EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS12
LONDON  THE SOUTH EAST
The IT recruitment market in London and the South
East entered 2013 on a steady stream which has
marginally increased the levels of optimism since
2012. The actual number of jobs available remains
low but has shown consistency and in some cases is
better than expected.
The IT market in London and the South East has been
generally more buoyant than other sectors. Having realigned
our business last year, Hudson’s bespoke focus and
specialist networks within the IT sector are benefiting both
our candidates and clients.
During 2012 the public sector remained stable and we didn’t
see the expected exodus early in the year. In fact, the public
sector has experienced steady growth in the second half of
2012 onwards and we anticipate this growth will continue
through 2013.
The private sector remained cautious and growth has
been fragile, however some companies have broken
cover and started to implement their new IT strategies
and technologies. 2012 saw considerable growth in the
e-commerce and digital sector both from end users and
digital agencies. We have also seen growth in the IT
consultancy space with a demand for specialist skills to
deliver key client wins. IT departments across London and
the South East have reshaped, giving organisations the
confidence to spend in IT to help drive companies out of the
doldrums.
Levels of growth were the strongest we had seen since the
recession began and we witnessed consistency throughout
the year in terms of hiring in both contract and permanent
requirements. We are expecting this growth to continue
throughout 2013.
We are seeing many companies in London and the
South East developing high performer identification and
development plans to ensure staff retention.
Social networking is now affordable and is accessible
technology that lets individuals and communities come
together in a new way. We are seeing companies
understand the power of being at the front of this trend
which is enabling change to happen more rapidly.
During 2012 we continually heard companies talk about
cloud computing and Salesforce, ‘hot’ technology areas
last year. Cloud computing allows for a more flexible and
scalable method of computing while Salesforce’s attraction
is the cost benefit for small companies. Recently we
have been hearing companies talk about the evolution of
virtualisation, business intelligence and analytics and other
systems to monitor recurring patterns that could develop
into money making applications – this has been a big area
for retail companies.
The contracting/interim market space has been more
steadfast than the permanent recruitment market. Coming
out of 2012 and into 2013 we are definitely seeing a
stronger demand for IT contracting and interim resources.
This is because the UK’s flexible technology workforce is
integral in helping businesses meet fluctuations in demand
while moving organisations forward, utilising the innovative
mind-set that contractors can bring to the work environment.
Interestingly, salaries and pay rates across the region have
tended to remain fairly static rather than decreasing, despite
a surplus of candidates now being available. We are still
seeing companies wanting an exact fit to their requirements
and therefore the demand for candidates skilled specifically
in niche technologies is increasing as is the variance on
contractor rates for specialist skills.
There are a number of areas where the requirement for
highly skilled professionals is prevalent. Core development
skills, project and programme management, business and
process analysis, change and transformation expertise and
e-commerce skills remain in high demand. Companies are
now fully aware of being ‘digital’ and they are wanting to
enhance their usage of the cloud, agile, social media, mobile
and open resources – we are starting to see leadership
positions such as Chief Digital Officer being considered as a
key part of the senior IT leadership in all organisations.

HOME COUNTIES  THE SOUTH WEST
IT recruitment in the Home Counties and the South
West regions were expected to be subdued at best
in 2012. However, the levels of growth experienced
were the strongest since 2008 and we witnessed
consistency throughout the year in terms of hiring
in both contract and permanent requirements.
We expect to see similar levels of growth in IT
recruitment in the Home Counties and South West
throughout 2013.
The public sector performed brilliantly in the second half of
2012 with substantial month-on-month growth seen from
June 2012 onwards. We expect the growth of public sector
recruitment to continue throughout 2013 but for levels of
growth to begin to level out around mid-year. Growth in the
private sector was subdued as private companies remained
cautious in the current economic climate. We have seen a
number of IT departments begin reshaping over the past
year in an attempt to cut costs and make the most of new
technologies. ERP and SAP have been particular buoyant
technologies.
IT departments across the Home Counties and the South
West have demonstrated a clear focus on staff retention,
thus achieving a reduction in HR costs and improved
engagement resulting in greater productivity. The most
effective engagement methods being considered are staff
deployment and improved learning and development
opportunities for employees.
More and more companies are beginning to understand the
power of social networking and the opportunities it offers
to better engage with clients and customers. This has led
to a significant growth in demand for IT professionals with
knowledge and experience of working within a number of
different social networks. We expect this trend to continue
throughout 2013 and beyond.
Recruitment demands constantly change to remain in
line with current market trends and technologies. Early
indicators from IT departments suggest that the evolution
of virtualisation, business intelligence, cloud computing and
analytics are going to be growth areas for 2013.
Candidates skilled specifically in niche technologies have
been in high demand in 2012 as companies looked to
find individuals that perfectly fit their requirements. Core
development skills, project and programme management,
business and process analysis, change and transformation
expertise, an Agile background and e-commerce skills
were continually sought by a wide variety of different
organisations.
Contractors and interim staff played a huge part in the
growth of IT recruitment across the Home Counties and the
South West in 2012. The demand for contract and interim
resources was comparable to those experienced during
2006/2007. Interestingly, salaries and pay rates across the
region tended to remain fairly static rather than decreasing,
despite a surplus of available resources or talent.
IT departments have continued to grow as demand for IT
professionals skilled in niche markets increases. An ever-
increasing number of companies are looking to exploit the
opportunities available to them through technologies such
as cloud computing, Agile, social networking and mobile
computing, to gain a competitive advantage over their rivals
by truly embracing these opportunities and demonstrating
commitment to remaining ahead by continually developing
their utilisation methods.

THE MIDLANDS  THE NORTH
2012 was widely expected to be a tough year for IT
recruitment in the Midlands and the North. In reality
however, the year exceeded expectations and proved to
be one of the strongest years seen since the recession
with steady growth both in permanent and contract
recruitment. Hudson’s success in this area was a direct
result of the commitment to develop specialists that
deal specifically with individual skill sets allowing deeper
market knowledge and assisting to develop stronger
client and candidate networks.
The public sector performed better than expected with
the business growing significantly in the second half of
2012. This growth is expected to continue throughout
2013 and early indicators suggest that this will be the
case. The private sector remained cautious throughout
2012 with a few companies of note implementing new
strategies and technologies which have had a positive
effect on recruitment. Mobile application development
has been a particularly buoyant area as companies rush
to get a piece of this fast-growing market. A number of IT
departments have been reshaped to help drive change
within organisations which has led to increased optimism
and spend in IT recruitment.
Companies are beginning to understand the benefits of staff
retention and development, particularly with technology
specialists. This has led to a shortage of IT professionals
with niche skills and has increased the wages of those who
perfectly fit a company’s demands. Now more than ever
companies are looking to their IT departments to deliver
change and efficiency. New technologies are offering
exciting opportunities to cut costs and increase productivity
and the opportunity to learn something new has proven a
great tool to retain high performing employees.
The explosion in social networking has offered companies
a brand new way of interacting with their customers, clients
and employees. The benefits of social networking and the
rewards for being at the front of this trend has had a huge
impact on IT departments and IT recruitment. One thing
is clear; ignoring social networking is no longer an option
for most companies and whether the companies are in the
Midlands, the North or the rest of the UK this remains true.
With technologies and trends changing so fast, it is essential
that IT departments remain at the forefront of their field
to exploit opportunities as they arise and gain an early
mover advantage. Hot topics at the beginning of 2013 have
included the evolution of virtualisation, business intelligence,
analytics and other systems to monitor recurring patterns
that could develop into money making applications.
Demand for contracting and interim resources during 2012
saw a significant increase to levels comparable to those
experienced in 2006/2007. The contracting space has
performed better than the permanent recruitment market in
2012 and is expected to continue growing in 2013 albeit at a
slightly slower rate. Contract and interim workers have been
integral in helping businesses meet fluctuations in demand
without tying companies down to long term expenditures.
Salaries for contract and interim professionals throughout
the Midlands and the North remained static in 2012 and are
expected to stay at these levels for the foreseeable future.
Companies now expect exact fits to their requirements
when hiring and therefore the demand for candidates
skilled specifically in niche technologies is increasing.
Core development skills, business and process analysis,
e-commerce skills and change and transformation expertise
are currently in high demand in the Midlands and the
North. With IT being the basis of so much that we do today,
leadership positions such as Chief Digital Officer are now
being considered as a key part of the senior IT leadership in
all major organisations.

THIS IS THE HIGHEST

Despite uncertainty and economic fragility we were
mildly optimistic about IT recruitment in Scotland
in 2012. We found this optimism to be justified and
believe that 2013 will continue to be a period of
growth. However this growth is highlighting a major
skills gap which continues to open up as demand
increases.
IT is synonymous with change and those changes have never
been faster. Social media and analytics have invaded all
corners of the enterprise while cloud computing and mobile
apps have now become mainstream.
Throughout 2012 we found that a number of our clients are
finding it difficult to recruit professionals with the exact set of
skills they required. This was accompanied by a worry about
losing their staff during 2012 due to increased salary benefits
expectations.
Many of the trends we discussed in 2011/12 are now having
a clear impact on our industry and on hiring patterns for 2013.
These trends are clearly going to influence the market in 2013
and beyond. Scotland I.S has highlighted the gap in supply
and demand recently, with almost 70% of respondents to their
industry survey expecting to take on more people. However the
majority believe they will locate the talent required in Scotland
and the worry is the lack of appropriate skills is becoming a
critical barrier to growth.
The continued adoption of technology by the wider population
and demand for mobile apps is resulting in the role profile
of IT professionals evolving to match the need to deal with
this. The personal attributes are changing too, for example,
improved stakeholder management, communication skills,
wider business knowledge and the ability to be nimble and drive
change are all competencies that are more in demand than
ever. Understanding business strategy and becoming more
strategically focussed is no longer desirable but mandatory.
Some business units are increasingly deploying their own
systems and mobile apps and IT departments need to
understand how they work and integrate them into the fabric of
the organisation. IT talent therefore needs to be able to think in
a strategic, business focussed way rather than simply managing
servers and storage devices.
2013 is predicted by Accenture to be the year that companies
plunge into big data projects and try to unlock the value that
is held inside sometimes massive amounts of information.
Analytics software is becoming more sophisticated and the new
insights being gained are filtering into lines of business, allowing
more agile and effective decision making. This trend is expected
to accelerate in 2013 and have an impact on the skills required
by organisations to ensure these projects are successful.
The acceleration of digital enterprise and social media is forcing
organisations to rethink business processes and interact in a
more collaborative way with their customers. The growth in
digital and mobile applications has resulted in organisations that
need to be able to act in the agile manner that is necessary to
respond to these changes. Mobile devices are becoming the
norm and 2013 is expected to be the year when IT executives
have to focus on creating a consistent experience across
devices and browsers. It is going to be crucial that organisations
design IT systems around mobility and ensure all services can
be delivered through mobile channels.
This change in emphasis has resulted in a skills shortage
already in the digital and mobile technologies markets and the
skills required to service this need are already in short supply as
are solid developers with skills in JAVA or .NET and ORACLE.
It is not just candidates with advanced stakeholder
management skills and strong adaptation to change that have
seen a climb in demand recently. With technology evolving at
such a rapid speed, specialist technical skills are a must and
organisations are keen to hire candidates with these abilities.
Many companies are now placing great importance on having
the right people with the right traits, knowledge and skills for
gaining competitive agility.
Despite the increase in IaaS and SaaS, organisations –
especially those who are high growth SMEs - are loading up on
IT talent and building up centres of technical excellence to spur
innovation and to gain a competitive advantage in the market.
These focussed recruitment exercises are further depleting the
pool of skills available and increasing demand for highly skilled
professionals.
Our experience to date indicates that salaries in 2012 were
coming under pressure. Clients are tending to base salaries
and rates on their prior experience of recruiting a similar role
which could have been over 18 months ago. If one is to embark
on a rigorous sign off process for a role it makes sense to get it
signed off at the correct level for the market initially.
A primary concern for organisations in 2013, as in 2012, should
be the quality and availability of skills within the permanent and
contractor candidate pool. However, employers should be wary
that salary on its own is not a talent attraction and/or retention
strategy, and to treat it as such will not yield favourable results.
The challenge will be to identify potential and ensure that it is
effectively attracted to the right organisation who can develop
this talent to gain and sustain competitive advantage. More
focus on graduate recruitment and training will be essential if
Scotland is to meet the needs of the future.
Despite a difficult economy, there are many compelling
drivers for IT spending at the moment – yet it is impossible
to be everywhere at once. Where and how to invest is the
biggest challenge – however, with the right people in place the
challenges become easier.

  • 4. UK OVERVIEW Welcome to the Hudson IT Salary & Employment Insights for 2013. We will give you an overview of all our UK results before focusing in more depth on the IT market. As your trusted advisor, we take pride in our comprehensive understanding of the recruitment business and factors affecting it including the expectations of organisations and their people. The challenging market conditions faced by UK businesses in recent years show little signs of easing and businesses are being encouraged to adapt to these conditions. Over the next 12 months, UK organisations need to equip themselves with the people they need to move through the next phase of their economic cycles. Never before has it been more vital and beneficial for organisations and job seekers to align their expectations. To ensure we have a complete understanding of how organisations feel about the upcoming year, we surveyed employers and employees to ascertain what impact the challenging economic environment is having on businesses. We looked at its effect on work practices, compensation and benefits and, importantly, employee engagement, morale, loyalty and job seeking behaviour. The survey revealed that workplaces are under stress and employees are expected to shoulder more responsibility. When asked what happens when a member of staff leaves, both employers and employees agreed that less than a quarter of roles were replaced and when a colleague is not replaced, 72% of employers and 79% of employees said, the additional workload was distributed amongst the remaining team.

Nevertheless, people are optimistic about the year ahead with 52% reporting that morale in their office had increased or remained the same. With over three quarters of employees surveyed categorising themselves as passively or actively seeking a new role, organisations are encouraged to look at creative benefit packages to attract and retain the best talent. The survey highlighted a level of disparity between the benefits employees are seeking and what is being offered by the market. Organisations who employ a level of flexibility with regard to benefit offerings could quite well find themselves at an advantage in 2013. In spite of the current economic challenges, employers are prophesying encouraging movements for the coming 12 months. Nearly half of employers are confident there is the potential for growth within their organisations and over a third are predicting head count increases in 2013. Rewarding high performers looks to be a business priority in 2013 and financial reward is back on the table with 72% expecting an increase in salary budgets and nearly half intend to award bonuses in 2013. Read on to see the full results of our UK and sector wide Salary Employment Insights survey, as well as proposed salaries and recruitment trends for IT for 2013. Methodology The salary survey was conducted over a three week period in January 2013, in which Hudson surveyed employers and employees online. In-house recruitment specialists and managing directors were surveyed for the purpose of gaining detailed regional and sector specific employment overviews. Current salary information was derived from Hudson’s internal database and quality checked against survey data. LONDON 53% 47%63% 37% 2013 SALARY EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS 5
  • 6. Recent months have been defined by talk of economic uncertainty and the picture is still evolving. With the Bank of England forecasting growth to remain below 1% and a eurozone outlook that remains troubled it’s not surprising that economic uncertainty is causing many businesses to start making contingency plans. Whilst the general outlook for the economy is a cautious one, the outlook for business growth and employment is predicted to gradually improve across the UK in 2013. According to the British Chamber of Commerce, business investment recovered strongly in the last two quarters of 2012 and is predicted to grow by 4.3% in 2013. This investment will likely help stimulate growth in the labour market leading to the creation of new jobs. The future of the UK economy remains unclear. To succeed businesses must remain agile, adapt to a slow growth environment and respond to evolving economic conditions. Workplaces remain under stress The demanding economic environment looks set to have a continued effect on workplaces with two thirds of employers believing their businesses will face tougher market conditions in 2013. Of those surveyed, 42% reported redundancies in the past 12 months, while 64% reported greater pressures on budgets, 55% observed increases in employee workload and 54% faced more stringent headcount approvals. It’s not only employers that are under pressure in this difficult business environment; 1 in 4 employees report an increase in their working hours and 43% now work more than 40 hours per week. Continued pressure on budgets has meant that only 24% of employers are always replacing roles if a member of the team leaves. In cases where the roles are not replaced, 72% of employers distribute the work amongst the remaining team members, with only 5% employing a contractor and 9% absorbing the extra workload themselves. Nearly half of employees said they are more stressed at work than a year ago, so it is perhaps not surprising to find a similar trend in morale levels with 48% saying they are more pessimistic than 12 months ago. Over three quarters of surveyed employees are actively (40%) or passively (36%) seeking new jobs. Of those surveyed, 57% anticipate changing jobs within 12 months. Levels of employee engagement at work are almost a perfect three way split between more engaged, less engaged and neutral so it is perhaps surprising to also find that 62% are reported as saying that they would recommend their employer. Rewarding high performance is a business priority While employees are expected to shoulder more responsibility, greater workloads and are working longer hours, the majority of employers appear to be acknowledging this by awarding pay rises. Most employers (72%) awarded pay rises in the last 12 months and seven in ten anticipate a further increase at the next salary review. The majority (59%) also indicated that modest pay increases of 1-5% were likely to be awarded in 2013. Interestingly, just over a third of employees believe an increase in salary is warranted in 2013 because their skills and experience are in high demand outside the organisation.

  • 7. The main reasons businesses increased salaries were to retain high performers and ensure pay parity. Over half of the employers (53%) surveyed indicated they would reward high performers with pay rises and a third (34%) are willing to award a pay rise in order to keep up with movements in living costs. Nearly half (49%) of employers indicated they were worried about losing staff and this concern may be warranted as 43% of employees felt they were inadequately rewarded for their increasing responsibility to the business. Four in ten employees were awarded a bonus in 2012 and the majority of these equated to between 1-10% of their salary. Larger bonuses were not unheard of with 15% of those awarded being greater than 20% of salary. Despite the tough environment 47% of employers plan to award bonuses in the next 12 months, with the majority indicating bonuses would be awarded based on either individual (68%) or company performance (67%). A further 26% indicated they were yet to decide whether they would award bonuses, which correlates with the uncertainty in the market.

  • 8. Employees are looking for well-rounded packages It is not only employers that are feeling the effects of the economic turmoil; employees are all too aware of the on-going economic uncertainty and the effects it has on their lives. Many employees are valuing job security and progression opportunities and are less inclined to expect large salary or bonus packages. When asked to rank important aspects when considering new job opportunities, employees demonstrated two definite preferences for increased salaries and a better work / life balance. The majority (85%) of employees rated more pay within their top five, interestingly, the expectation of the level of increase was modest, with 71% indicating an acceptable salary increase for external roles was less than 15%. The second highest consideration was better work / life balance (74%) with 29% of employees ranking this as the number one reason they are attracted to a new opportunity. In general, employees showed a tendency towards non- monetary based aspects when considering new jobs. When asked to pick from a list of 17 aspects they look for when changing jobs, 61% of employees picked a non-monetary based option as their number one option. Company culture, convenient location and respected senior / managerial staff were all cited as factors in employees’ decision making processes. This suggests firms that choose to focus their attention on a combination of base salaries and tailored benefit packages are likely to be more attractive to prospective employees. Achieving a benefit balance With budget squeezes becoming an all too common commercial reality, businesses are showing a commitment to offering a range of benefits as part of the package. But it is important to get it right – 1 in 5 employees indicated a level of dissatisfaction with their current benefit package and there appears to be some disparity between what is offered and what is attractive to employees. Employers would be advised to look to adopt a range of non-monetary benefits to attract and retain talent. Only 49% of employers offer flexible working opportunities, whereas 65% of employees rated this in their top five most attractive benefits. After base annual salary, the top benefits offered by employers are contributory pension plan (72%), bonus and recognition (67%) and health benefits / insurances (54%). However, with the government NEST pension scheme being rolled out over the next few years, companies will no longer be able to offer this as an optional benefit so we will likely see a shift here. When we asked employees to nominate which benefits were most attractive to them, 86% placed bonus and recognition in their top five followed by flexible working opportunities (65%) and contributory pension plan (54%). Those least preferred included child care and paid maternity / paternity leave.

Growth is predicted Despite the current economic uncertainty, 48% of employers stated that they believe their department has growth potential in 2013. This growth is expected to manifest in a number of different ways. One third of employers believe their departments will see an increase in headcount in the next twelve months, while 44% expect headcounts to remain stagnant. 19% of employers reported an expected decline in headcount in 2013, and it is worth noting that this figure is significantly down from the 30% who reported the same expectation last year. The general outlook for 2013 is one of cautious optimism. Businesses are reporting expected growth but the commercial reality could be that employees will shoulder even greater responsibilities, as businesses strive to achieve this under the pressure of already tight budgets. Employees are taking on more responsibility and working longer hours, resulting in increased workplace stress and pessimism which could explain the large number of employees looking to move on in 2013. Employees feel they are not being adequately rewarded for increased workload and responsibilities, and want greater rewards. With pressure on remuneration budgets, businesses should increase their focus on non-monetary benefits as a way of retaining and incentivising staff. Stable jobs with flexible benefits are a key priority for employees rather than ever-increasing salaries. Results indicate that non-monetary benefits alone are enough to sway job seekers’ decisions. Employers who focus their attention on a combination of base salaries and tailored benefit packages are likely to be more attractive to prospective employees. 2013 SALARY EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS 9

  • 13. LONDON THE SOUTH EAST The IT recruitment market in London and the South East entered 2013 on a steady stream which has marginally increased the levels of optimism since 2012. The actual number of jobs available remains low but has shown consistency and in some cases is better than expected. The IT market in London and the South East has been generally more buoyant than other sectors. Having realigned our business last year, Hudson’s bespoke focus and specialist networks within the IT sector are benefiting both our candidates and clients. During 2012 the public sector remained stable and we didn’t see the expected exodus early in the year. In fact, the public sector has experienced steady growth in the second half of 2012 onwards and we anticipate this growth will continue through 2013. The private sector remained cautious and growth has been fragile, however some companies have broken cover and started to implement their new IT strategies and technologies. 2012 saw considerable growth in the e-commerce and digital sector both from end users and digital agencies. We have also seen growth in the IT consultancy space with a demand for specialist skills to deliver key client wins. IT departments across London and the South East have reshaped, giving organisations the confidence to spend in IT to help drive companies out of the doldrums. Levels of growth were the strongest we had seen since the recession began and we witnessed consistency throughout the year in terms of hiring in both contract and permanent requirements. We are expecting this growth to continue throughout 2013. We are seeing many companies in London and the South East developing high performer identification and development plans to ensure staff retention. Social networking is now affordable and is accessible technology that lets individuals and communities come together in a new way. We are seeing companies understand the power of being at the front of this trend which is enabling change to happen more rapidly. During 2012 we continually heard companies talk about cloud computing and Salesforce, ‘hot’ technology areas last year. Cloud computing allows for a more flexible and scalable method of computing while Salesforce’s attraction is the cost benefit for small companies. Recently we have been hearing companies talk about the evolution of virtualisation, business intelligence and analytics and other systems to monitor recurring patterns that could develop into money making applications – this has been a big area for retail companies. The contracting/interim market space has been more steadfast than the permanent recruitment market. Coming out of 2012 and into 2013 we are definitely seeing a stronger demand for IT contracting and interim resources. This is because the UK’s flexible technology workforce is integral in helping businesses meet fluctuations in demand while moving organisations forward, utilising the innovative mind-set that contractors can bring to the work environment. Interestingly, salaries and pay rates across the region have tended to remain fairly static rather than decreasing, despite a surplus of candidates now being available. We are still seeing companies wanting an exact fit to their requirements and therefore the demand for candidates skilled specifically in niche technologies is increasing as is the variance on contractor rates for specialist skills. There are a number of areas where the requirement for highly skilled professionals is prevalent. Core development skills, project and programme management, business and process analysis, change and transformation expertise and e-commerce skills remain in high demand. Companies are now fully aware of being ‘digital’ and they are wanting to enhance their usage of the cloud, agile, social media, mobile and open resources – we are starting to see leadership positions such as Chief Digital Officer being considered as a key part of the senior IT leadership in all organisations.

  • 19. HOME COUNTIES THE SOUTH WEST IT recruitment in the Home Counties and the South West regions were expected to be subdued at best in 2012. However, the levels of growth experienced were the strongest since 2008 and we witnessed consistency throughout the year in terms of hiring in both contract and permanent requirements. We expect to see similar levels of growth in IT recruitment in the Home Counties and South West throughout 2013. The public sector performed brilliantly in the second half of 2012 with substantial month-on-month growth seen from June 2012 onwards. We expect the growth of public sector recruitment to continue throughout 2013 but for levels of growth to begin to level out around mid-year. Growth in the private sector was subdued as private companies remained cautious in the current economic climate. We have seen a number of IT departments begin reshaping over the past year in an attempt to cut costs and make the most of new technologies. ERP and SAP have been particular buoyant technologies. IT departments across the Home Counties and the South West have demonstrated a clear focus on staff retention, thus achieving a reduction in HR costs and improved engagement resulting in greater productivity. The most effective engagement methods being considered are staff deployment and improved learning and development opportunities for employees. More and more companies are beginning to understand the power of social networking and the opportunities it offers to better engage with clients and customers. This has led to a significant growth in demand for IT professionals with knowledge and experience of working within a number of different social networks. We expect this trend to continue throughout 2013 and beyond. Recruitment demands constantly change to remain in line with current market trends and technologies. Early indicators from IT departments suggest that the evolution of virtualisation, business intelligence, cloud computing and analytics are going to be growth areas for 2013. Candidates skilled specifically in niche technologies have been in high demand in 2012 as companies looked to find individuals that perfectly fit their requirements. Core development skills, project and programme management, business and process analysis, change and transformation expertise, an Agile background and e-commerce skills were continually sought by a wide variety of different organisations. Contractors and interim staff played a huge part in the growth of IT recruitment across the Home Counties and the South West in 2012. The demand for contract and interim resources was comparable to those experienced during 2006/2007. Interestingly, salaries and pay rates across the region tended to remain fairly static rather than decreasing, despite a surplus of available resources or talent. IT departments have continued to grow as demand for IT professionals skilled in niche markets increases. An ever- increasing number of companies are looking to exploit the opportunities available to them through technologies such as cloud computing, Agile, social networking and mobile computing, to gain a competitive advantage over their rivals by truly embracing these opportunities and demonstrating commitment to remaining ahead by continually developing their utilisation methods.

  • 29. THE MIDLANDS THE NORTH 2012 was widely expected to be a tough year for IT recruitment in the Midlands and the North. In reality however, the year exceeded expectations and proved to be one of the strongest years seen since the recession with steady growth both in permanent and contract recruitment. Hudson’s success in this area was a direct result of the commitment to develop specialists that deal specifically with individual skill sets allowing deeper market knowledge and assisting to develop stronger client and candidate networks. The public sector performed better than expected with the business growing significantly in the second half of 2012. This growth is expected to continue throughout 2013 and early indicators suggest that this will be the case. The private sector remained cautious throughout 2012 with a few companies of note implementing new strategies and technologies which have had a positive effect on recruitment. Mobile application development has been a particularly buoyant area as companies rush to get a piece of this fast-growing market. A number of IT departments have been reshaped to help drive change within organisations which has led to increased optimism and spend in IT recruitment. Companies are beginning to understand the benefits of staff retention and development, particularly with technology specialists. This has led to a shortage of IT professionals with niche skills and has increased the wages of those who perfectly fit a company’s demands. Now more than ever companies are looking to their IT departments to deliver change and efficiency. New technologies are offering exciting opportunities to cut costs and increase productivity and the opportunity to learn something new has proven a great tool to retain high performing employees. The explosion in social networking has offered companies a brand new way of interacting with their customers, clients and employees. The benefits of social networking and the rewards for being at the front of this trend has had a huge impact on IT departments and IT recruitment. One thing is clear; ignoring social networking is no longer an option for most companies and whether the companies are in the Midlands, the North or the rest of the UK this remains true. With technologies and trends changing so fast, it is essential that IT departments remain at the forefront of their field to exploit opportunities as they arise and gain an early mover advantage. Hot topics at the beginning of 2013 have included the evolution of virtualisation, business intelligence, analytics and other systems to monitor recurring patterns that could develop into money making applications. Demand for contracting and interim resources during 2012 saw a significant increase to levels comparable to those experienced in 2006/2007. The contracting space has performed better than the permanent recruitment market in 2012 and is expected to continue growing in 2013 albeit at a slightly slower rate. Contract and interim workers have been integral in helping businesses meet fluctuations in demand without tying companies down to long term expenditures. Salaries for contract and interim professionals throughout the Midlands and the North remained static in 2012 and are expected to stay at these levels for the foreseeable future. Companies now expect exact fits to their requirements when hiring and therefore the demand for candidates skilled specifically in niche technologies is increasing. Core development skills, business and process analysis, e-commerce skills and change and transformation expertise are currently in high demand in the Midlands and the North. With IT being the basis of so much that we do today, leadership positions such as Chief Digital Officer are now being considered as a key part of the senior IT leadership in all major organisations.

  • 35. SCOTLAND OF DEPARTING IT ROLES ARE ALWAYS REPLACED THIS IS THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE SHOWN ACROSS ALL SURVEYED INDUSTRIES 32% Despite uncertainty and economic fragility we were mildly optimistic about IT recruitment in Scotland in 2012. We found this optimism to be justified and believe that 2013 will continue to be a period of growth. However this growth is highlighting a major skills gap which continues to open up as demand increases. IT is synonymous with change and those changes have never been faster. Social media and analytics have invaded all corners of the enterprise while cloud computing and mobile apps have now become mainstream. Throughout 2012 we found that a number of our clients are finding it difficult to recruit professionals with the exact set of skills they required. This was accompanied by a worry about losing their staff during 2012 due to increased salary benefits expectations. Many of the trends we discussed in 2011/12 are now having a clear impact on our industry and on hiring patterns for 2013. These trends are clearly going to influence the market in 2013 and beyond. Scotland I.S has highlighted the gap in supply and demand recently, with almost 70% of respondents to their industry survey expecting to take on more people. However the majority believe they will locate the talent required in Scotland and the worry is the lack of appropriate skills is becoming a critical barrier to growth. The continued adoption of technology by the wider population and demand for mobile apps is resulting in the role profile of IT professionals evolving to match the need to deal with this. The personal attributes are changing too, for example, improved stakeholder management, communication skills, wider business knowledge and the ability to be nimble and drive change are all competencies that are more in demand than ever. Understanding business strategy and becoming more strategically focussed is no longer desirable but mandatory. Some business units are increasingly deploying their own systems and mobile apps and IT departments need to understand how they work and integrate them into the fabric of the organisation. IT talent therefore needs to be able to think in a strategic, business focussed way rather than simply managing servers and storage devices. 2013 is predicted by Accenture to be the year that companies plunge into big data projects and try to unlock the value that is held inside sometimes massive amounts of information. Analytics software is becoming more sophisticated and the new insights being gained are filtering into lines of business, allowing more agile and effective decision making. This trend is expected to accelerate in 2013 and have an impact on the skills required by organisations to ensure these projects are successful. The acceleration of digital enterprise and social media is forcing organisations to rethink business processes and interact in a more collaborative way with their customers. The growth in digital and mobile applications has resulted in organisations that need to be able to act in the agile manner that is necessary to respond to these changes. Mobile devices are becoming the norm and 2013 is expected to be the year when IT executives have to focus on creating a consistent experience across devices and browsers. It is going to be crucial that organisations design IT systems around mobility and ensure all services can be delivered through mobile channels. This change in emphasis has resulted in a skills shortage already in the digital and mobile technologies markets and the skills required to service this need are already in short supply as are solid developers with skills in JAVA or .NET and ORACLE. It is not just candidates with advanced stakeholder management skills and strong adaptation to change that have seen a climb in demand recently. With technology evolving at such a rapid speed, specialist technical skills are a must and organisations are keen to hire candidates with these abilities. Many companies are now placing great importance on having the right people with the right traits, knowledge and skills for gaining competitive agility. Despite the increase in IaaS and SaaS, organisations – especially those who are high growth SMEs - are loading up on IT talent and building up centres of technical excellence to spur innovation and to gain a competitive advantage in the market. These focussed recruitment exercises are further depleting the pool of skills available and increasing demand for highly skilled professionals. Our experience to date indicates that salaries in 2012 were coming under pressure. Clients are tending to base salaries and rates on their prior experience of recruiting a similar role which could have been over 18 months ago. If one is to embark on a rigorous sign off process for a role it makes sense to get it signed off at the correct level for the market initially. A primary concern for organisations in 2013, as in 2012, should be the quality and availability of skills within the permanent and contractor candidate pool. However, employers should be wary that salary on its own is not a talent attraction and/or retention strategy, and to treat it as such will not yield favourable results. The challenge will be to identify potential and ensure that it is effectively attracted to the right organisation who can develop this talent to gain and sustain competitive advantage. More focus on graduate recruitment and training will be essential if Scotland is to meet the needs of the future. Despite a difficult economy, there are many compelling drivers for IT spending at the moment – yet it is impossible to be everywhere at once. Where and how to invest is the biggest challenge – however, with the right people in place the challenges become easier. 2013 SALARY EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS 35
