This was the second month in a row that all metrics (candidates, vacancies and placements) have risen; marking the first time this has happened for more than four years – since June and July 2021.

Speaking about the stats, Barbara Kolosinska, Co-Owner and Managing Director at C&M Travel Recruitment (http://www.candm.co.uk/), said: "For many, many months, we have been calling for momentum and consistency in the travel jobs market - and there are now very early signs that we may be seeing this.

"For the first time since 2021, the number of new travel jobs, candidates and placements have all increased in back-to-back months. This is much needed, and while we clearly need this to continue before we can declare it a real trend, it's undoubtedly a positive sign for the travel industry."
