Employment: Growth in permanent place- ments in the north is at a 29-month high.

The key points saw a sharp expansion in permanent staff placements, the rate of growth in temporary staff billings at a 20-month high and the ninth successive monthly rise in permanent salaries.

The Report On Jobs: North is designed to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to labour market trends. The data is directly comparable with the UK Report On Jobs.

The north of England registered a third successive monthly rise in the number of permanent placements in November. The pace of expansion was steep, and the fastest in 29 months.

Across the UK as a whole, permanent staff appointments increased steeply, but at a slower rate than in the north.

Chris Hearld, KPMG's Yorkshire senior partner, said: "This last Northern Report On Jobs of 2012 delivers some pre-Christmas cheer regarding employment, as business across the region gradually gain the confidence to make decisions about the vacancies they want to fill.

"Perhaps the Government's long-term strategy for jobs is beginning to bear fruit? But before anyone gets the bunting out, the good news must be seen in the context of a fragile economy that remains susceptible to future shocks."

Mark Hathway, managing director of NL Managed Services and REC regional director in Yorkshire, said: "Recruiters are reporting another monthly increase in the number of people they have placed into permanent and temporary jobs.

"It is beginning to look like an accelerating trend."
