COVID-19 impacting industry jobs
As COVID-19 continues to impact working conditions, many asset owners and managers have slowed or put a hold on hiring until the situation becomes clearer, according to Super Recruiters.
Sally Humphris, executive director at Super Recruiters, said restrictions on face-to-face meetings at most organisations were obviously slowing recruitment.
“While industry leaders started the year optimistically [with] employment and hiring, the situation has certainly changed in the past few weeks,” Humphris said.
“Though some key roles are certainly progressing and we are still placing CEOs [chief executive officers], as well as planners and operations candidates.”
