Demand for sales executives 'on the rise'

The demand for executives in the sales recruitment sector continues to rise in the UK, according to the latest figures.

Data issued by InterExec concerning the first six months of the year show that, of the top six professional disciplines sought by recruiters between January and June, IT and management consultancies were most in demand.

This was followed by sales professionals and chief executives, as companies began to recover from the effects of the economic downturn.

Commenting on the statistics, Kit Scott Brown, InterExec chief executive, pointed out that there was an 84 per cent jump in demand for sales executives.

"The demand for senior executives across almost all industry sectors is increasing, but top executives need to remain alert if they are to identify the best new opportunities," he added.

It comes after Kevin Green, chief executive of the Recruitment and Employment Confederation, said that it is essential that firms are rewarded for boosting sales recruitment and creating jobs in other sectors.
