Contract roles boost vacancies, operational management in demand

DFP Recruitment’s Mining and Resources Jobs Index experienced a rise of 2.5% over July, increasing from 50.02 to 51.26.

With some encouraging signs of stability and growth, national vacancies are now 7.1% higher than a year ago.

Most of the improvement in the month was due to the temporary and contract market which rose 5.6%, reversing June’s fall of 3.6%.

The permanent market is also showing tentative signs of recovery with another small rise of 0.3% in July.

July proved a really positive month for Western Australia with job vacancies rising 4.5% and up now by 11.9% over 12 months. However, Queensland continues to struggle with job opportunities falling a further 4.4%.

Metal ore mining employment is proving to be the most consistent performer with vacancies rising a further 3.7%. The top performing occupational category in July was operational management which experienced a very strong 13% rise in job opportunities.
