Hays Property (Western Australia)
January - March 2012
Hotspots
In Western Australia, a number of large scale projects are commencing or due for completion, which will see demand rise for client side Project Managers and Property Managers to manage the buildings and ensure projects run on time and within budget.
The coming quarter
While overall the property market remains quiet, we expect to see more movement this quarter as projects are awarded. We also expect to see senior vacancies arise this quarter.
Vacancies will arise as people switch roles and are replaced, rather than through the creation of new roles and rising workloads.
Employer trends
Employers are waiting until the last moment to start their recruitment processes and are shortening recruiting timeframes.
Candidate trends
We note an increase in the number of senior candidates who are looking for their next opportunity; there has not been a lot of movement at this level and people are now restless for a change.
