Overview

With a steady growth of start-ups responsible for technological innovation and high levels of investment, the UK's IT sector is well-placed to take on a new generation of skilled workers

Employment of IT professionals through to 2020 is forecast to grow at 1.62% per annum - nearly twice as fast as the UK average. Growth is expected to be in more senior roles, such as software professionals, ICT managers and strategy and planning (Technology Insights 2012, e-skills UK).
