In this episode Christian is joined by Neil Carberry, chief executive of the Recruitment and Employment Confederation, which represents over 3,000 recruitment companies across the country.

Neil gives his assessment of the jobs market and the changes coming its way, and offers advice for job seekers or those looking to change their career during these uncertain times.

He also adds his voice to the great ‘working from home’ debate — suggesting that while it has many upsides, and is here to stay in some form, the office is still important and people ‘shouldn’t get carried away’ in assuming we won’t ever return to them.

Also in this episode, Christian looks at the latest survey of British businesses considering job cuts; a plea for help from the retail and hospitality sectors; and Canary Wharf’s efforts to reassure bankers that the iconic site is safe to return to.
