Energy sector rivals banking for big bonuses
No longer banking’s poor relation, the energy sector is looking increasingly attractive to job seekers as salaries have increased by 12% and average bonuses have risen by a record 21% in 2008, according to consultancy group GRS.
With professionals leaving the banking sector, demand for jobs has pushed average middle office salaries in energy up to almost £90,000 and base salaries for senior positions to £380,000.
Asset backed utilities have reported a surge in profits for the year which has opened up the sector to new recruits, allowing companies to take advantage of the fallout from the financial crisis.
