|May 19, 2025
Australia recorded a significant upswing in professional job vacancies, led by the financial services sector in March, according to the Robert Walters Global Jobs Index.
The research found that professional white-collar vacancies in financial services in Australia jumped by 34% compared to February 2025, marking one of the strongest monthly performances this year.
The surge in job vacancies places Australia in the top position globally over the US (+28.85%) and India (+22.58%).
Robert Walters director of finance Hamish Winterbourn said it was a standout performance.
"With finance vacancies surging by 34%, we're seeing clear momentum in hiring across key sectors—placing Australia firmly on the global stage alongside economic powerhouses like the US and India," he said.
