C&M Travel Recruitment and C&M Executive Recruitment's Travel Salary Index – May 2019 • Travel salaries dip but remain historically high • Big monthly wage differences across the country • Vacancy and candidate numbers both rise in May following April falls Strong month for salaries despite dip Average salaries for a new travel job fell from April's record figure but still stood as the third highest number since the index began in 2012, according to the latest Travel Salary Index from C&M Travel Recruitment and C&M Executive Recruitment which surveyed all new vacancies registered with the companies during the month. The monthly fall of 1.5 per cent (or £426) saw wages dip to £27,956, although the 12-month rolling average increased to +5.78 per cent, helped by a strong monthly increase in salaries for executive travel jobs (those paying £40,000 and above). Salaries fell across the country in May although there were marked differences across the regions, with the south of the UK seeing a slim 0.46 per cent monthly dip and the north experiencing a much larger 5.56 per cent decrease. Meanwhile, standard travel salaries (those paying below £40,000) fell back by 5.65 per cent to £24,296 in May. However, this was 1.01 per cent above the same month in 2018 and was up by a very strong 7.08 per cent on the rolling 12-month average. Vacancy and candidate numbers improve Despite remaining down year-on-year, the number of new vacancies rebounded strongly from last month's falls with a 19 per cent increase in May, while there was also a 10 per cent monthly rise in new candidates registering their interest in finding a new travel job. Vacancy numbers rose to their highest level since January, while candidate volumes stood at their highest point since February. Speaking about the stats, Barbara Kolosinska, Director at C&M Travel Recruitment (http://www.candm.co.uk/ "Encouragingly, salaries remain very strong and have increased by nearly six per cent across the past year, so for those people who are considering a career move, there are clearly some very attractive travel roles available at the moment." …………………………………………………… All figures are drawn from the salaries of the month's new vacancies advertised with C&M Travel Recruitment and C&M Executive Recruitment.
