Roles in HR, as well as procurement and supply chain, tech, and consultant were among the most in-demand across the professional services sector in January 2025, according to the report.
“January data for professional services firms is generally in line with what we saw in 2024, where the industry as a whole was not as harshly hit as others,” Fowlston said.
Increase by country
Meanwhile, the United States continued to lead the world when it comes to job creation for white-collar roles, making up 31% in January 2025. The US is followed by:
- India (16.61%)
- United Kingdom (7.72%)
Poland also made its debut on the top 10 for job creation by volume in January 2025 with 1.62%, driven strongly by its financial services and professional services sectors.
“Poland continues to attract investors looking to establish and expand their operations in Warsaw and other key cities. A highly skilled yet cost-effective workforce, combined with the country’s strong EU integration and strategic geographical location, makes it an attractive destination for businesses,” Fowlston said.
