In the organisation's Medium Term Forecast, it predicts single digit growth over the next four years, with the industry expected to peak at over £30 billion in 2014/15.

The report noted that turnover in temporary/contract staffing has returned to 2006/2007 levels at £22 billion, while permanent recruitment also rallied last year, representing a 37 per cent increase on 2009/10's levels.

Volumes of permanent placements rose by 38.3 per cent from 436,822 last year to 604,193 in 2010/11, while temporary posts were up 19.3 per cent to stand at 1,049,333, compared to 879, 000 last year.
