Small increase for travel salaries

Average salaries for jobs in the travel industry increased marginally in July after rising by £99, according to the latest Travel Salary Index from C&M Recruitment Consultancy and Chisholm & Moore Executive Recruitment, which studied all new vacancies registered at the companies in the month. Nonetheless, the 0.41 per cent increase marked a welcome rise after the successive falls seen in May and June.

While lower than the figures for much of the first half of the year, the average salary of £24,561 remained higher than 2012’s average of £24,425.

On a less positive note, July’s figure was 1.30 per cent lower than that seen in the same month last year, while the three-month average (which is a more reliable indicator of recent trends) was down a disappointing 3.40 per cent.

Commenting on the figures, Barbara Kolosinska, sales director at C&M Recruitment Consultancy, said: “Average salaries increased last month which is always great to see – especially after falls in the two previous months. July’s figure is also higher than the average pay for 2012, which is yet another indication that employers in the travel industry are becoming more confident and competitive with salaries in order to secure the best candidates for their company.”

Sharp rise in new job seekers

July also saw a notable increase in the number of candidates seeking new roles. In fact, July saw the biggest monthly rise since January – a month that traditionally sees a huge increase in registrations due to candidates looking to find a new job as part of their New Year’s resolutions.

In addition, the number of new vacancies registered with C&M Recruitment Consultancy and Chisholm & Moore Executive Recruitment remained ahead of the average figure seen in 2012.

“As expected, the end of this summer’s great weather meant that people began to refocus on their career and so we saw a large rise in new candidates registering with us. This, combined with the healthy number of new vacancies that we advertised in the month, suggests that late summer and the early autumn will be a busy period for travel recruitment,” Ms Kolosinska added.
