Recruitment in 2012 was widely affected by a deepening of the Eurozone crisis and weak figures for

GDP growth… Despite this, recruitment in Scotland remained relatively positive… in the financial services

sector, temporary and contract markets have remained buoyant during the year – a trend we expect to continue

in 2013 particularly within risk and compliance.

UK OVERVIEW

Welcome to the Hudson Accounting & Finance Salary & Employment Insights for 2013. We will give you an overview of all our UK results before focusing in more depth on the Accounting & Finance market. As your trusted advisor, we take pride in our comprehensive understanding of the recruitment business and factors affecting it including the expectations of organisations and their people.

The challenging market conditions faced by UK businesses in recent years show little signs of easing and businesses are being encouraged to adapt to these conditions. Over the next 12 months, UK organisations need to equip themselves with the people they need to move through the next phase of their economic cycles. Never before has it been more vital and beneficial for organisations and job seekers to align their expectations.

To ensure we have a complete understanding of how organisations feel about the upcoming year, we surveyed employers and employees to ascertain what impact the challenging economic environment is having on businesses. We looked at its effect on work practices, compensation and benefits and, importantly, employee engagement, morale, loyalty and job seeking behaviour.

The survey revealed that workplaces are under stress and employees are expected to shoulder more responsibility. When asked what happens when a member of staff leaves, both employers and employees agreed that less than a quarter of roles were replaced and when a colleague is not replaced, 72% of employers and 79% of employees said, the additional workload was distributed amongst the remaining team.

2013 SURVEY RESPONDENT DEMOGRAPHICS

In addition to this employees are working longer hours with 43% saying they work over 40 hours a week and 25% saying that their hours have increased in the past 12 months. Nevertheless, people are optimistic about the year ahead with 52% reporting that morale in their office had increased or remained the same.

With over three quarters of employees surveyed categorising themselves as passively or actively seeking a new role, organisations are encouraged to look at creative benefit packages to attract and retain the best talent. The survey highlighted a level of disparity between the benefits employees are seeking and what is being offered by the market. Organisations who employ a level of flexibility with regard to benefit offerings could quite well find themselves at an advantage in 2013.

In spite of the current economic challenges, employers are prophesying encouraging movements for the coming 12 months. Nearly half of employers are confident there is the potential for growth within their organisations and over a third are predicting head count increases in 2013. Rewarding high performers looks to be a business priority in 2013 and financial reward is back on the table with 72% expecting an increase in salary budgets and nearly half intend to award bonuses in 2013.

Read on to see the full results of our UK and sector wide Salary & Employment Insights survey, as well as proposed salaries and recruitment trends for Accounting & Finance for 2013.

MethodologyThe salary survey was conducted over a three week period in January 2013, in which Hudson surveyed employers and employees online. In-house recruitment specialists and managing directors were surveyed for the purpose of gaining detailed regional and sector specific employment overviews. Current salary information was derived from Hudson’s internal database and quality checked against survey data.

2013 SALARY AND EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS6

Recent months have been defined by talk of economic uncertainty and the picture is still evolving. With the Bank of England forecasting growth to remain below 1% and a eurozone outlook that remains troubled it’s not surprising that economic uncertainty is causing many businesses to start making contingency plans.

Whilst the general outlook for the economy is a cautious one, the outlook for business growth and employment is predicted to gradually improve across the UK in 2013. According to the British Chamber of Commerce, business investment recovered strongly in the last two quarters of 2012 and is predicted to grow by 4.3% in 2013. This investment will likely help stimulate growth in the labour market leading to the creation of new jobs.

The future of the UK economy remains unclear. To succeed businesses must remain agile, adapt to a slow growth environment and respond to evolving economic conditions.

Workplaces remain under stress The demanding economic environment looks set to have a continued effect on workplaces with two thirds of employers believing their businesses will face tougher market conditions in 2013.

Of those surveyed, 42% reported redundancies in the past 12 months, while 64% reported greater pressures on budgets, 55% observed increases in employee workload and 54% faced more stringent headcount approvals.

It’s not only employers that are under pressure in this difficult business environment; 1 in 4 employees report an increase in their working hours and 43% now work more than 40 hours per week.

Continued pressure on budgets has meant that only 24% of employers are always replacing roles if a member of the team leaves. In cases where the roles are not replaced, 72% of employers distribute the work amongst the remaining team members, with only 5% employing a contractor and 9% absorbing the extra workload themselves.

Nearly half of employees said they are more stressed at work than a year ago, so it is perhaps not surprising to find a similar trend in morale levels with 48% saying they are more pessimistic than 12 months ago.

Over three quarters of surveyed employees are actively (40%) or passively (36%) seeking new jobs. Of those surveyed, 57% anticipate changing jobs within 12 months.

Levels of employee engagement at work are almost a perfect three way split between more engaged, less engaged and neutral so it is perhaps surprising to also find that 62% are reported as saying that they would recommend their employer.

Rewarding high performance is a business priority While employees are expected to shoulder more responsibility, greater workloads and are working longer hours, the majority of employers appear to be acknowledging this by awarding pay rises.

Most employers (72%) awarded pay rises in the last 12 months and seven in ten anticipate a further increase at the next salary review. The majority (59%) also indicated that modest pay increases of 1-5% were likely to be awarded in 2013.

Interestingly, just over a third of employees believe an increase in salary is warranted in 2013 because their skills and experience are in high demand outside the organisation.

2013 SALARY AND EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS 7

The main reasons businesses increased salaries were to retain high performers and ensure pay parity. Over half of the employers (53%) surveyed indicated they would reward high performers with pay rises and a third (34%) are willing to award a pay rise in order to keep up with movements in living costs.

Nearly half (49%) of employers indicated they were worried about losing staff and this concern may be warranted as 43% of employees felt they were inadequately rewarded for their increasing responsibility to the business.

Four in ten employees were awarded a bonus in 2012 and the majority of these equated to between 1-10% of their salary. Larger bonuses were not unheard of with 15% of those awarded being greater than 20% of salary.

Despite the tough environment 47% of employers plan to award bonuses in the next 12 months, with the majority indicating bonuses would be awarded based on either individual (68%) or company performance (67%). A further 26% indicated they were yet to decide whether they would award bonuses, which correlates with the uncertainty in the market.

2013 SALARY AND EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS8

Employees are looking for well-rounded packages It is not only employers that are feeling the effects of the economic turmoil; employees are all too aware of the on-going economic uncertainty and the effects it has on their lives. Many employees are valuing job security and progression opportunities and are less inclined to expect large salary or bonus packages.

When asked to rank important aspects when considering new job opportunities, employees demonstrated two definite preferences for increased salaries and a better work / life balance. The majority (85%) of employees rated more pay within their top five, interestingly, the expectation of the level of increase was modest, with 71% indicating an acceptable salary increase for external roles was less than 15%.

The second highest consideration was better work / life balance (74%) with 29% of employees ranking this as the number one reason they are attracted to a new opportunity.

In general, employees showed a tendency towards non-monetary based aspects when considering new jobs. When asked to pick from a list of 17 aspects they look for when changing jobs, 61% of employees picked a non-monetary based option as their number one option.

Company culture, convenient location and respected senior / managerial staff were all cited as factors in employees’ decision making processes. This suggests firms that choose to focus their attention on a combination of base salaries and tailored benefit packages are likely to be more attractive to prospective employees.

Achieving a benefit balance With budget squeezes becoming an all too common commercial reality, businesses are showing a commitment to offering a range of benefits as part of the package. But it is important to get it right – 1 in 5 employees indicated a level of dissatisfaction with their current benefit package and there appears to be some disparity between what is offered and what is attractive to employees.

Employers would be advised to look to adopt a range of non-monetary benefits to attract and retain talent. Only 49% of employers offer flexible working opportunities, whereas 65% of employees rated this in their top five most attractive benefits.

After base annual salary, the top benefits offered by employers are contributory pension plan (72%), bonus and recognition (67%) and health benefits / insurances (54%). However, with the government NEST pension scheme being rolled out over the next few years, companies will no longer be able to offer this as an optional benefit so we will likely see a shift here.

When we asked employees to nominate which benefits were most attractive to them, 86% placed bonus and recognition in their top five followed by flexible working opportunities (65%) and contributory pension plan (54%). Those least preferred included child care and paid maternity / paternity leave.

Growth is predicted Despite the current economic uncertainty, 48% of employers stated that they believe their department has growth potential in 2013. This growth is expected to manifest in a number of different ways. One third of employers believe their departments will see an increase in headcount in the next

twelve months, while 44% expect headcounts to remain stagnant. 19% of employers reported an expected decline in headcount in 2013, and it is worth noting that this figure is significantly down from the 30% who reported the same expectation last year.

BENEFIT Offered by Employers* Most attractive benefits for Employees** Summary

WHAT BENEFITS ARE EMPLOYERS OFFERING COMPARED TO THE BENEFITS EMPLOYEES ARE LOOKING FOR?

The general outlook for 2013 is one of cautious optimism. Businesses are reporting expected growth but the commercial reality could be that employees will shoulder even greater responsibilities, as businesses strive to achieve this under the pressure of already tight budgets.

Employees are taking on more responsibility and working longer hours, resulting in increased workplace stress and pessimism which could explain the large number of employees looking to move on in 2013.

Employees feel they are not being adequately rewarded for increased workload and responsibilities, and want greater rewards. With pressure on remuneration budgets, businesses should increase their focus on non-monetary benefits as a way of retaining and incentivising staff.

Stable jobs with flexible benefits are a key priority for employees rather than ever-increasing salaries. Results indicate that non-monetary benefits alone are enough to sway job seekers’ decisions. Employers who focus their attention on a combination of base salaries and tailored benefit packages are likely to be more attractive to prospective employees.

LONDON – BANKING & FINANCIAL SERVICES

With London being the centre of financial activity in the UK, and a global financial hub, the accounting, finance and banking sectors are affected by poor economic conditions and negative economic news more than in other regions.

With that in mind, conditions over the past twelve months have been challenging and as a result the prevailing mood is one of uncertainty. Redundancies within many firms have created an apprehensive atmosphere leading to the majority of candidates remaining in their roles as they look for security rather than an increased compensation package. For this reason we expect hiring volumes to remain stagnant in 2013.

We expect salaries to be largely unchanged between 2012 and 2013. In 2012 and moving into 2013 we haven’t seen large pay increases at offer stage with the majority of firms offering 10-15% maximum above the candidate’s current salary. Also, whereas we used to see an increase of candidates in the market following bonus payments this is no longer the case as candidates aren’t necessarily expecting a bonus. In some cases we have actually seen candidates take a pay-cut for the right opportunity.

We have seen a widening in the difference between the top performers and those at the bottom of the scale, with high achievers seeing increases in their bonus, and those at the bottom being left with nothing. As a consequence, candidates are increasingly seeking security, progression opportunities and improved base salaries over bonus pay-outs.

Last year saw a drive in Valuations/IPV recruitment across the majority of Investment banks but this year, where redundancies are expected and offshoring is occurring this is not likely to continue. We expect to see continued delayering at director

level with some activity across key areas such as IFRS and Regulatory Policy. In addition, firms have been recruiting finance business partner/decision support candidates with a particular emphasis on cost and managing spend as well as other business functions such as Technology and Risk.

Contractors are still being utilised but there have been rate reductions as firms look to reduce costs further. Permanent hires are preferred as they are generally more cost effective but due to headcount restrictions often find it easier to hire a contractors. There has been less of an emphasis on temp recruitment over the past twelve months, especially within core finance functions such as product control and financial control as firms have moved the majority of these teams to more cost effective offshore/nearshore locations. Project management and business analyst candidates are still in demand and due to the nature of their work are still hired on a contract basis.

Recruitment in Risk and Compliance proved relatively challenging in 2012 with the exception of a few specific pockets of activity. Jobs in conventional areas of risk management such as Credit and Market Risk analysis were predominantly driven by replacement and, where it was possible, firms sought to leverage internal resources to fill any gaps. If institutions did reach out to the external candidate market in these areas, it was usually because they were looking for a very specific skill (such as a language or particular product experience).

The changing regulatory landscape did provide some respite. A number of banking clients sought to hire people on a permanent basis to help tackle changing rules and regulations and this resulted in a number of roles coming through in Regulatory Capital, Regulatory Risk and certain areas of

Compliance. As well as building out internal teams to focus on regulatory change, a number of firms have been hiring experienced Project Professionals both from an IT and business background on a contract basis.

The outlook for 2013 is set to replicate that of 2012 with salaries remaining constant in most cases and the bulk of recruitment being driven by firms trying to cope with regulatory changes within financial services. Therefore it is necessary for candidates actively looking at new job opportunities to make themselves as marketable as possible to new employers. Top performers across all functions are going to have to prove their worth in the coming months and years, refining and developing their skill sets to ensure they retain their value in the market.

2013 SALARY AND EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS 21

LONDON & THE SOUTH COMMERCE & INDUSTRY & NOT-FOR-PROFIT

Financial recruitment across the South bore a resemblance to the national picture, showing uncertainty and apprehension following the economic turbulence of the past few years and the expected continuation of the global economic crisis.

Hiring activity across the accounting & finance sector remained flat on a like for like basis during 2012, however job flow did significantly increase in quarter three following the London Olympics. There was however a notable shift in the attitude towards hiring and resource planning as the year progressed, with recruitment clearly being higher on the agenda among senior finance leaders and HR departments.

Despite the overall landscape remaining challenging, there were certain industry sectors which remained resilient with natural resources, oil and gas and technology chief among them. Unsurprisingly, there has been a significant decline in opportunities within the retail sector and this trend looks set to continue during 2013.

From a skillset perspective, client’s hiring strategies within finance have increasingly focused on business facing vacancies with an emphasis on cross functional business partnering and decision support. This is underlined by the ever increasing involvement of finance in all aspects of decision making across organisations. Candidates with these skills remain in high demand and are able to secure reasonable salary increases when moving. Overall however

the volume of such candidates has significantly declined as concerns around the economy coupled with widespread restructuring has undermined confidence.

Opportunities for candidates in senior finance leadership roles remain limited in the present climate, with companies opting to promote from within as opposed to seeking external talent. There remains an exceptional opportunity for clients to bolster their senior finance leadership teams in the current climate, given the calibre of candidates actively seeking to move.

There has been a significant decline in job flow and opportunities for qualified interim and contract professionals. This is a result of cost cutting and the implications of AWR. We envisage a moderate rise in interim opportunities during 2013 as companies seek to adopt more flexible resource planning and as some embark upon significant change projects.

As a consequence of all of these factors, salaries for both interim and permanent finance professionals have remained static and are set to remain at similar levels through 2013.

Recruitment within the not for profit and public sector arenas is set to remain challenging in 2013. With a continued focus on cost control, the time to hire has increased significantly as organisations adopt more robust business case review processes and perform detailed due diligence on pay rates and salaries. The economic climate has also impacted career development, with a marked increase in the number of candidates making sideways moves as promotion

opportunities become more limited. Increased candidate flow has also been fuelled by the competitive commerce market as those candidates broaden their searches to consider roles in the public sector.

Whilst job flow remains static, not for profit and public sector bodies are accordingly faced with a healthier candidate pool when they are able to consider applications from the external market.

2013 SALARY AND EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS 31

THE MIDLANDS & THE NORTH

In general, financial recruitment in the Midlands and the North experienced the same turbulence and uncertainty as the financial markets themselves. With the global economic crisis continuing, organisations are looking to shore up their positions, cut costs and ride out the storm.

There were some notable exceptions that bucked the trend of the economic downturn and displayed strong growth throughout the year. These were typically sectors in highly competitive environments where commercial financial management is regarded as a key element. These included retail, FMCG, hi-tech engineering, media, financial services and natural resources. We expect growth in these areas to continue albeit at a slower rate in the coming year.

Looking forward to 2013, some confidence has returned to financial services organisations in the Midlands and the North which has led to an increase in demand for finance professionals. With the changes to IFRS and Basel 3, we have seen banks recruiting into their Accounting Policy and Regulatory Policy teams and expect this to continue throughout the year. Organisations have been also been recruiting finance business partner/decision support candidates with a particular emphasis on managing costs. Filling these highly technical roles has led to a shortage of available talent and a return to the upward pressure on salaries seen in previous years.

We have seen a significant drop in the volume of interim and contract work available as companies look to cut costs and as a result of the new regulations regarding AWR. We expect the current work volumes to continue throughout the year with a slight increase in quarter four as companies seek to adopt more flexible resource planning.

Confidence in the accounting, finance and banking sectors in the Midlands and the North is still very shaky. Large financial organisations are unwilling to increase staffing levels until the economy is on sturdier ground. There are however still signs of life as increases in regulation and a desire to cut costs has led to firms hiring candidates with very specific skillsets into these in-demand roles.

2013 SALARY AND EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS36

SCOTLAND

Recruitment in 2012 was widely affected by a deepening of the Eurozone crisis and weak figures for GDP growth in the UK. Despite this accounting and finance recruitment in Scotland remained relatively positive and consistent through 2012, with growth recorded in a number of key business sectors namely FMCG and financial services with sporadic activity across the SME market.

By the end of 2012, the accounting and finance industries recorded a significant increase in demand for permanent staff. However, with the powerbase moving to London, there are fewer senior commercial opportunities with a greater emphasis on production and increased levels of service centre resource. As a result there has been a significant increase in entry level roles for newly and recently qualified accountants. In addition to this, permanent salaries to the end of 2012 showed consistent increases, with certain skill sets in high demand. The greatest increase in candidate demand and salaries were felt in the Aberdeen area, as the demand in the oil and gas sector continued to outperform other sectors in Scotland.

We are predicting a continued gradual phase of hiring activity off the back of sustained business confidence as well as new entrants into the financial services market. The hiring focus is on permanent and fixed term contract resource with the day rate contract requirements in decline.

In the financial services sector, temporary and contract markets have remained buoyant during the year - a trend we expect to continue in 2013, particularly within risk and compliance. This is fuelled by increased regulation and organisations focusing on risk, which in turn is driving a need for specialist talent that the local market cannot

support. There is also anticipated growth in the business change market due to a number of business transformation projects commencing, regulatory changes including Solvency 2 and Basel 3, and a number of recent entrants to the banking sector competing for market share.

FinanceOffshoring and halted divestment projects saw an influx of mid-level accountancy skills onto the market and significant restructuring within the retail banking sector saw a large number of temporary contractors moving into permanent posts and a greater degree of flexibility around salary expectations for financial services as a whole. Expectation of candidates’ career paths has changed, there is more acceptance of traditionally permanent candidates undertaking contract roles and returning to permanent posts without this negatively impacting careers. This is driven by numerous headcount freezes over the last couple of years and limited permanent opportunities.

RiskThe demand for experienced risk professionals in 2012 was up against 2011 with the “war on talent” between the financial services firms becoming increasingly competitive. The demand for talented executive hires has increased the top end “Head of” salaries by a sizeable margin in some cases across credit, operational and regulatory risk disciplines. Despite the need to attract competent individuals, some firms have introduced a mandatory 10% cap on total packages across the mid-senior manager levels which may limit the attraction of talent.

2013 SALARY AND EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS 37

With a continued regulatory focus throughout the sector, demand across most of the risk management practices throughout 2013 is showing very little sign of slowing down. Specific areas under the spotlight include stress testing, regulatory risk relations, conduct risk, financial crime and anti-money laundering.

ComplianceThe notable demand for compliance specialists that was evident in quarter four of 2012 should continue into 2013 and it is anticipated that candidates with monitoring, policy and assurance experience will remain in high demand. Compliance and regulatory reporting departments are likely to grow both horizontally and vertically on the back of increased regulation and spotlight from the FSA which requires more rigorous reporting. Bonuses for 2012 were lower than those in the years pre-recession but slightly up on the previous two years.

Business changeThe growth in business change activity remained relatively steady in 2012 with change functions generally showing as ‘growth areas’ due to the regulatory and mandatory projects dominating the business change arena. Smaller organisations continued to look to make savings by reducing the reliance on contract resource, moving instead towards permanent and fixed-term recruitment. While this impacted the volumes of contract recruitment seen in the business change space, there was still a significant amount within larger financial services and industry clients in Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Commerce and IndustryThe commerce and industry sector has seen steady growth, especially for permanent placements which have risen as 2012 progressed. Notably newly qualified accountants have been in high demand as companies focus on developing and moulding potential leaders of the future. There has been an increasing demand in permanent requirements within the oil and gas, energy and utilities, FMCG and service sectors, and this has caused a shortage in candidates for specific skill sets including:

` Business partnering ` Commercial finance ` Process reengineering ` Financial reporting ` System accountancy

Public sector recruitment has remained relatively static over the year, with recruitment freezes and re-deployments still in operation across the NHS, central, and local government. There have been pockets of recruitment in the not-for-profit and charity sectors, but generally speaking these have been replacement roles and short-term contracts to cover the financial year end rather than a result of growth in the sector. The higher and further education sectors seem to be potential growth areas due to legislation changes and mergers in the respective sectors.
