Market Updates

Well, what a year! Things started out strongly, continued to get busier, and staying in that vein – finishing on a high. We are currently recruiting across most project sectors, both private and public sector and anticipate this will continue well into 2022

When considering this past year it feels somewhat exhausting to reflect on what has been, but no one can deny it has been a BIG 12 months – and that’s not even talking about COVID! (Although that subject will weasel its way in throughout as it always does).

It’s been an intriguing 2021 and what’s next we ask?
We’ve had the pandemic, unrest in the streets, earthquakes…. Please, just don’t mention the plague or pestilence!!!
With that as a starting point, it seems remarkable that we have seen such a strong first 9 months of 2021!
The market has shown strong demand and created a clear shortage of available talent, with this being most pronounced between March and September.

It’s been a really interesting time seeing how the market has traveled through this 2021 lock-down and how studios and staff have coped with the transition to working remotely for such an extended period. Overall, the sentiment and activity has remained very positive during the outbreak of the Delta strain in Sydney and companies have remained confident about their workflow and hiring intentions…

So what’s happening elsewhere? Not something we maybe think as much about when in full lockdown and our focus might seem more locally driven. Our wonderful affiliate in the UK, Oliver Tidmarsh from JaK Consulting filled us in on happenings in his neck of the woods and had this to say about their local market..

Welcome to the overview of the Architectural and Interior Design job market that covers what we’ve seen over the last few months in Sydney for the start of 2021. This report will hopefully give some insight into what is happening in the NSW Architectural and Interior Design job markets from our vantage point of recruiting for a vast range of Architectural and Interior Design firms in Australia.

Post lock down action! – that’s the only way we can describe the “bounce” we have seen, starting tentatively in December, building through January, with momentum continuing into March strongly here at BT&P Melbourne.

So we’re nearly there, dragging our limp, fatigued bodies and minds over the 2020 finish line, feeling desperate for a break over summer…

Welcome to the Melbourne Market Update for Spring 2020, although at this stage this is more of an interim update as we still sit in Stage 4 Covid restrictions in the Melbourne Metro area. This week marks 7 months in a work from home situation – quite incredible when you think about it!

Welcome to the Sydney Market Update for Spring 2020. I thought it was high time that I brought you all up to date with what’s happening in the Architectural and Interior Design job markets here in Sydney!
