Working in South West England
Employment Landscape
Job seekers in South West England are stepping into a region marked by both opportunity and persistent caution. Infrastructure and clean‑energy consultancies such as AECOM and AtkinsRéalis are expanding operations around projects linked to the Levelling Up Fund and the Western Gateway initiative. Tech remains a notable bright spot: forecasts suggest the sector could grow from £11 billion in gross value added to nearly £20 billion by 2026, supporting more than 125,000 jobs in areas such as marine technology, climate science, and FinTech. At the same time, hiring demand remains subdued overall, with the South West recording one of the slowest declines in permanent placements across the South of England and rising candidate supply pressuring starting salaries. Official figures still show the region with the highest employment rate in the UK around 80%, low unemployment near 3.4%, and declining payroll jobs contributing to a cautious employer mindset. This means real openings in infrastructure, clean‑tech, and digital fields do exist, but competition and budgetary restraint are real challenges for job seekers.

Hiring Patterns
Hiring in the South West is cautiously recovering in targeted areas. Infrastructure, engineering consultancies, and clean‑tech firms are actively recruiting, while general permanent hiring remains flat or slightly contracting amid economic uncertainty.
"You will find pockets of genuine demand in infra and tech, but overall it feels more like picking through opportunity than walking into a queue of open doors."
