Fastest Growing Midlands Businesses Looking to Employ in 2023



2022 marked a significant shift toward normality for businesses as Covid-related lockdowns eased. However, as we move through 2023 companies are now grappling with new challenges stemming from rising energy and fuel costs, coupled with reduced consumer spending due to the ongoing cost-of-living crisis.



Despite these hurdles, the West Midlands region remains a hub of innovation and business excellence, with promising prospects on the horizon for 2023 and beyond.



And it’s safe to say the same for the world of recruitment, the 2023 PWC Hopes & Fears Survey reports that ‘Employees are restless: Despite recessionary worries and rising unemployment in some regions, 26% of all respondents say they are likely to change jobs in the next 12 months (up from 19% in our 2022 survey). The number is higher for younger employees, with 35% of gen Z and 31% of millennial respondents planning to change jobs.’



With this, the demand for employees is high, as is the interest in employers seeking high calibre candidates to fill their upcoming vacancies as they continue to grow.
