Trends for the future

If you've read the page called 'Why do jobs change?' then you've probably got some ideas about what might happen in the future...

But let's get down to the nitty gritty - which sectors are predicted to grow and which are expected to get smaller? Remember though, just because an industry is declining, it doesn't mean there won't be any jobs for you. Sometimes it means the opposite!*

In the UK we can expect the following sectors to grow over the next few years:

Distribution and transport
Education
Health and social work
ICT
Recycling and renewable power TV
Film and advertising

*The engineering industry is declining in the number of people working in it - but we're still going to need people to build and design bridges, roads, new vehicles, heating systems, rockets...
