KEEP TRACK OFTHE TRENDSINSIGHTS FROM THE EXPERTSThe 2014 Hays Salary Guide: Salary & Recruiting Trends
GET READY FOR THE HIRINGTURNAROUND
Recent business surveys and jobs advertising data have all pointed to a turnaround in hiring. After a few bumpy years and the fading of the mining investment boom, it seems that employers now feel more positive about hiring in 2014-15. But as recruitment activity increases, that old threat of a skills shortage again looms.
It’s quite a paradox; for some job functions there is still a surplus of candidates yet in others, often those that require highly-skilled and experienced professionals, there is a shortage of suitable talent.
While this can cause obvious and understandable frustration amongst sections of the talent pool, those with the skills in demand are again starting to receive multiple offers and even counter offers.
But despite this, in most cases base salaries remain stable. This is unsurprising given that cost pressure and the desire to do more with less remain dominant concerns.
So too does the need for a flexible workforce, although permanent job numbers are starting to rise for highly-skilled candidates as employers want to secure skills they cannot do without.
When the pressure is on to hire great people, it’s easy to make the mistake of bringing in the right skills above the right culture fit. Getting the hiring right will make retaining and developing great people much easier, which is why ongoing candidate engagement is so important to us at Hays. The relationships we build with both our candidates and clients mean that we see the whole picture – from all angles.
With candidate confidence returning it will be more likely that candidates are willing to move in the next 12 months. Why not talk to us when you are next looking to access the most comprehensive, current and global network of talent?

Managing Director, Hays Australia & New Zealand

2014 Hays Salary Guide | 5
As part of our Hays Salary Guide, every year we survey employers to gather their views on salary policy, recruitment trends and economic outlook. This year’s insights reveal an environment where 41% see a more positive economic outlook on the horizon. 66% expect their levels of business activity to increase in the year ahead, and 63% have already seen an increase in business activity over the 12 months prior to the survey. Perhaps that is why overtime increased in 31% of organisations over the same period.
This supports an emerging trend; the desire to do more with less. So too does the focus on curbing costs, which salaries were not immune from. Of the total employer group, 9% have no plans to increase salaries in the 12 months ahead (up from 8% last year) and 12% did not award any increases in their last review, also up 1% year-on-year.
When they next review, a massive 64% of employers plan salary increases of less than 3%, up from 57% last year. And while 27% of employers off ered increases between 3 and 6% when they last reviewed, only 24% will do so when they next review.
There are few instances of generous salary increases; just 4% of employers increased salaries by more than 6% in their last review, and 3% intend to do so in their next review. Clearly, large salary increases will not be bountiful in 2014-2015.
Candidates have slightly higher expectations for their next salary increase. When asked, 12% expect an increase above 6% and 27% expect an increase between 3 and 6%. Almost half (48%) expect to receive an increase of less than 3% while the fi nal 13% expect no increase in their next review.
When asked about permanent headcount over the next 12 months, 34% of surveyed employers say it will increase, 51% say it will remain the same and 15% will make decreases. Refl ecting on the past 12 months, 34% of employers increased permanent headcount, 43% kept it on hold and 23% decreased numbers.
Of those employers planning to hire, 79% say the roles will be full-time (down from 83% in 2013), 25% will increase their use of temporary/contract staff (up from 17% in 2013), 16% plan more part-time staff (20% in 2013) and 15% more casual staff (14% in 2013).
By sector, 56% of employers predict permanent headcount growth in their marketing department. In addition, 42% expect to increase headcount in their engineering and operational management departments, while 37% will increase their information technology and sales headcounts. Headcounts in project management (35%) and human resources (31%) departments will also rise.
A large 62% of employers intend to keep their accountancy and fi nance headcount unchanged, while 24% plan increases.
As an indicator of the preference for a fl exible workforce, 21% of employers now use temporary and contract staff on an ongoing basis, up from 19% last year. And while 71% expect their use of temporary and contract staff to remain the same, 16% said it will increase.
In terms of skills shortages, 58% of those surveyed said that the eff ectiveness of their operations would be impacted by not fi nding the right skills for their business. In skill-short areas, 64% of employers would consider employing or sponsoring a qualifi ed overseas candidate.
The largest area of skills shortage appears to be junior to mid management talent in both operations and accountancy and fi nance. This is followed by junior to mid management talent for technical, sales and marketing, IT and engineering roles.
When it comes to attracting the best candidates, 37% of employers said career path and development was the most critical, although only 9% say their organisation is publicly perceived as off ering such opportunities.
Furthermore 42% said it is an individual’s ‘fi t’ with the company’s vision, culture and values that has the greatest impact on their employment brand, but only 23% said they are perceived as getting this right. 60% said their organisation has a diversity policy for hiring new staff .

AUSTRALIA
Over the past year Australia’s technology employment market was characterised by caution and flexibility mixed with a dose of skills shortages in certain specialised areas. We witnessed a lot of excitement about new technology trends, but this did not quite extend through to investment or dramatic increases in job numbers.
While demand for candidates has been high, candidate perception of the jobs market has been the exact opposite. This is because many employers have been very specific and uncompromising about the skill set candidates must possess to fill their jobs.
The major trends in IT continue to be big data, mobile and the cloud. Contracting rather than permanent hires dominated both the private and public sectors this year and we expect this trend to continue into 2015.
Project activity has been mixed. Some organisations continued with major projects, some increased the number of new projects while others made cutbacks, particularly in the public sector following the federal election and some state elections.
Projects within data management range from structuring data and analysing data to how consumer-led organisations can use data efficiently. As data continues to aid strategy, Technologists with a talent for combining their technical skills with outstanding strategic thinking will remain in demand.
Digital-led advances also continue to gather pace, as Australia follows the US, Europe and Asia. When viewed within the mobile space, candidates in highest demand are Integration Specialists with specific skills in content management, digital experts with online and apps-based mobile development skills and Designers with user experience (UX) design skills.
The cloud remains a strong area for hiring. Interconnectivity is creating demand for networking and infrastructure skills from the design level through to support roles. IT security professionals are also highly sought as organisations focus on both keeping information secure and complying with privacy regulations.
Solid demand for Project Managers, Project Directors and Business Analysts
with specific functional or industry experience will continue but job briefs are exacting, such as experience with compliance and regulatory adherence.
In terms of salaries, they remained broadly steady over the year. Some key specialist areas, such as data, mobile and web, saw the range increase but base salaries remained generally static.
Turning to the public sector, over the year we saw a significant increase in Federal Government project-driven opportunities as individual departments received approval for strategically important hires across their IT branches in the post-election environment.
While contractors are seen as highly valuable to program delivery, rates have decreased significantly due to an abundance of available candidates, many of whom are willing to drop their rate to get an edge on their competition.
In terms of demand, Business Analysts and Project Managers are also sought in the government sector to build the foundations of newly approved projects and work on projects that were delayed. Skill sets in demand include data warehousing, business intelligence and open source technologies.
Going forward the challenge for IT is to integrate more seamlessly within organisations to deliver both an efficiency of service and a competitive advantage. IT has increasingly moved away from being a support function to a driver of innovation.
The contemporary ideal IT professional has a business-led mentality as well as an ability to translate project requirements effectively to non-IT people.
NEW ZEALAND
Over the past year numerous organisations built up their IT capabilities as a result of the steady increase in confidence across New Zealand. But a challenge came in the form of ongoing candidate shortages, especially in the areas of development, automation testing and project services.
Organisations appear to be confident and are willing to invest in strong senior IT specialists. They are also looking to
up-skill entry-level staff and consequently IT Technical Trainers are in demand.
In contrast, hiring is more cautious for helpdesk professionals, and employers are securing these candidates in temporary assignments.
When they recruit, employers look for individuals with relevant technical skills combined with New Zealand work experience. They are often recruiting candidates in temporary assignments, although this leads to retention challenges since candidates on contracts often continue to look for a permanent role.
Over the next 12 months technical candidates such as Automation Test Specialists, Mobile Developers, Technical Business Analysts, Network Engineers and UI / UX Specialists will be in demand. Salaries and contract rates have started to increase as the war for technology heats up, but candidates need to be mindful not to price themselves out of the market.

IN DEMAND TECHNOLOGISTS WITH A TALENT FOR COMBINING THEIR TECHNICAL SKILLS WITH OUTSTANDING STRATEGIC THINKING WILL REMAIN IN DEMAND IN AUSTRALIA

AUSTRALIA
A number of oil and gas projects are ramping up worldwide and generating solid recruitment activity. This is positive news and follows sluggish conditions in most of the world’s economies in 2013.
For the most part, employers are able to source candidates locally but there are some new project areas where experience from overseas is relevant, such as floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) and dynamic positioning.
As infrastructure comes into completion, companies are preparing for operations. Given the lack of previous local expertise within coal seam gas (CSG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) we will see demand increase for operations and training personnel from similar industries to assist in the transition.
After a number of remarkable years of investment, there will likely be a pause in new LNG projects as US exports are potentially more favorable from a standpoint of pricing, contractual terms, and supply portfolio diversification. New Australian opportunities for LNG expansion have to overcome our high-cost environment and, at present, our highly valued currency.
In the marine support sector, wages and expenses have risen substantially in recent years, only partially offset by rises in revenue. This raises concerns about the ongoing health and competitiveness of the offshore industry.
Despite these challenges, the outlook for Australia’s oil and gas sector in 2014-15 remains promising. Although stagnant over the last six months, the transition to maintenance and operations in the Queensland region and continued growth in South Australia and Western Australia will see salaries continue to rise for specialist skills.
Thus the salary dichotomy in oil and gas will continue this year with highly skilled professionals able to negotiate salary increases, at the same time as lower skilled workers face downward salary pressure.
Key disciplines in demand include quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) and specialist trades and labour. We have seen a stable market for subsea installation,
project controls and operations and maintenance candidates.
In terms of specific demand by location, the Northern Territory has seen increased demand for QA/QC Advisors to work on major projects moving further into construction/fabrication phases.
In Western Australia Subsea Installation Engineers, Marine/Technical Superintendents and Subsea Project Coordinators are in demand. So too are Sales Engineers, especially within the subsea market.
Queensland will continue to recruit in technical trades, particularly dual trades, and organisations will address the skills shortage by improving rosters and/or site allowances.
As projects develop the IOCs will return to growth, which will impact the markets in Melbourne, and to a lesser extent Sydney.
NEW ZEALAND
Following a healthy rate of growth in New Zealand’s oil and gas market in 2013, 2014-15 is looking positive with the prospect of more opportunities and expansion in the industry.
Experienced oil and gas professionals are secured quickly. Companies that have slower recruitment processes and longer turnaround times therefore find it difficult to attract and secure quality individuals.
The attraction of candidates from overseas into or back to New Zealand also remains a challenge, although employers are having some success by offering long-term career progression or incentives such as relocation expenses and visa assistance.
We continue to see an increase in downstream job opportunities for experienced Process, Mechanical and Electrical Engineers, as well as Health and Safety professionals.
Upstream professionals are also in short supply, particularly Geoscience and Reservoir Engineers. Consequently these candidates are quickly targeted and not on the market for long.
With more operators entering the market, an increase in exploration activities is expected in the year ahead. All in all, it will be a positive year for oil and gas professionals in New Zealand.
KEY TREND THE SALARY DICHOTOMY WILL CONTINUE THIS YEAR IN AUSTRALIA WITH HIGHLY SKILLED PROFESSIONALS ABLE TO NEGOTIATE SALARY INCREASES, BUT LOWER SKILLED WORKERS FACE DOWNWARD SALARY PRESSURE
IN DEMAND ATTRACTION OF CANDIDATES FROM OVERSEAS INTO OR BACK TO NEW ZEALAND REMAINS A CHALLENGE
