New businesses, digitalization, growing financial sector spur this year’s job needs READ:

Many Philippine-based companies will need more tech talent with expertise in automation, data analytics, cloud, and 5G, or fifth-generation technology, said Robert Walters Philippines Country Manager Nic Sephton-Poultney, citing the findings of the company’s Salary Survey 2022.

Risk, finance operations, and front office workers will also be in high demand in 2022, Mr. Sephton-Poultney said during a virtual media discussion on Tuesday, citing the emergence of new businesses, digitalization, and the growing financial sector. “Companies should also note that healthcare benefits are extremely critical, and many candidates will prioritize offers from companies that provide healthcare to employees along with their dependents,” Mr. Sephton-Poultney said.

“We have seen many employees leave or candidates reject offers when organizations require them to work in the office with no option for hybrid or work-from-home arrangements. This is highly prevalent in the Philippines, and we can expect that to continue in 2022.”
