Job gains are expected for organisations of all sizes, but the strongest outlook is for large businesses with over 250 employees, where 33 percent of employers say that they are looking to expand their headcount in the final quarter of this year.<\/p>\n<h3>Businesses in Victoria are Most Optimistic<\/h3>\n<p>The regional picture outlined in the survey is overwhelmingly positive, with headcount forecasts set to grow in seven of Australia\u2019s eight regions during the forthcoming quarter. Employers in Victoria report the strongest hiring intentions with a Net Employment Outlook (NEO) of +17 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, New South Wales and Queensland stand to see steady job gains of +16 percent and +14 percent, respectively. The outlook for Australia Capital Territory stands at a healthy +13 percent and Tasmanian employers are forecasting a respectable +11 percent. We can also expect to see moderate hiring activity in both Southern and Western Australia, (+10 percent and +seven percent, respectively).<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s only in the Northern Territory that employers anticipate a decline in staffing levels, with the outlook predicted to be -four percent. In all of the other seven regions, hiring prospects have improved when compared with the previous quarter, creating a picture of a healthy recruitment landscape.<\/p>\n<h3>The Top Three Sectors for Predicted Growth<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Job gains are forecast for multiple industry sectors in the forthcoming quarter, which is undoubtedly great news for recruiters. However, employers in some areas are predicting particularly notable increases in hiring. So, what are they and what does this mean for agencies in these arenas?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Transportation &amp; Utilities:<\/strong> With <a href=\"https:\/\/home.kpmg.com\/au\/en\/home\/industries\/power-utilities.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KPMG<\/a> describing the Australian utilities sector as \u201cfacing an unprecedented period of transformation with more anticipated\u201d and heavy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.austrade.gov.au\/news\/media-releases\/2018\/australia-s-rethink-on-transport-infrastructure-new-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">investment<\/a> in transport infrastructure, it\u2019s no surprise that businesses in the sector are looking to increase their headcount. In fact, employers in this area reported the strongest anticipated hiring, with a healthy NEO of +23 percent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finance, Insurance &amp; Real Estate:<\/strong> This broad-spanning sector has not been without its challenges in recent months \u2013 including the ongoing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.afr.com\/business\/banking-and-finance\/financial-services\/hayne-royal-commission-hearings-leave-retail-super-fund-industry-reputation-in-tatters-20180816-h1436b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hayne Royal Commission<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/2018-09-03\/melbourne-leads-national-home-price-fall\/10194056\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">housing downturn<\/a> \u2013 but employers are more confident about their businesses\u2019 employment needs than might be expected. In fact, they are reporting stronger hiring plans now compared to this time one year ago, with an anticipated increase of 11 percent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mining &amp; Construction:<\/strong> This sector reported a NEO of +21 percent for the last quarter of this year, meaning that agencies operating in the field can anticipate plentiful opportunities.
