Warsaw


Workforce: Skills & Orientation


If we dig a little deeper and examine the structure of the workforce of each city, we can see of how close they are to having the right balance of workers in value-add modern professions including Information & Communications Technology, Financial Business Services and those in Professional, Technical and Scientific Roles. Many smaller and mid-size markets feature strongly in this category, and it is of no coincidence that these markets also feature highly overall, and in terms of economic productivity per capita. Zurich leads the line, closely followed by Dublin, London and Edinburgh. The major Nordic cities also feature strongly alongside some of the Big7 German cities, but Paris drops back as a result of over-exposure to jobs in public services and support functions. Perhaps the stand-out market is Warsaw, which jumps into the top five for the first time courtesy of a healthy mix of employees working in IT, professional and technical roles.

Warsaw is the leading CEE market in this category, courtesy of a highly professional and technical workforce. It was also one of the fastest growing ‘job-creation’ markets for employees in higher value-add services in 2017.
