Salary Guide 2013 Czech Republic reedglobal.cz
Market Overview
Against a backdrop of continuing challenging economic conditions within the Czech Republic, where the recession shows little sign of ending and unemployment remains close to 10 per cent, employers are searching for increased efficiencies in 2013 and exploring how they can improve the effectiveness of their human capital.
In this environment, enlightened HR professionals can cement their value to the business by implementing innovative resourcing solutions that make a positive impact on the bottom line.
The Czech Republic retains its popularity among large corporates as an excellent country in which to locate their international service centres, and also for business process outsourcing organisations to base themselves. Meanwhile the valuable local talent pool, supplemented by skilled international candidates, keeps IT, engineering, energy and accountancy as particularly strong employment sectors.
The value of outsourcing to the overall economy extends to HR, where some employers are choosing to adopt a Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) approach as a means of extracting additional performance improvements and cost efficiencies.
A partnership approachThe ongoing recession is leading many organisations to work more closely with their resourcing solution partners, as they explore a multitude of possible ways they can become more effective. For some this may mean adopting a search approach for certain hard to fill roles, while for others it could be pursuing an RPO strategy for volume recruitment projects.
For many businesses, the greatest impact is made by experienced individuals with specific expertise in critical areas. However, finding these hard to locate mid and senior-level people and then bringing them into a business requires detailed sector knowledge, unrivalled recruitment expertise, a search approach and access to a wide pool of talented individual: a combination of factors rarely found outside of an established resourcing solutions agency.
Recruitment trendsWith unemployment expected to remain high over the next 12 months, online job advertisements are unlikely to be the best approach for many vacancies, as they will attract high numbers of applications - many of which are likely to come from increasingly anxious job seekers who do not possess the skills and experience required.
A more strategic approach will yield the best results, with recruitment agencies tailoring how they work with employers in order to deliver suitably talented candidates in the most timely and cost-effective manner.
We also expect there to be an increase in demand from employers for their recruitment partners to provide RPO solutions, as these can deliver a wide range of cost and performance benefits in certain situations – such as volume recruitment.
What next?In these continued tough trading conditions, it is impossible to overstate the importance of recruiting and retaining the very best available talent.
If you think your business might be able to benefit from additional resourcing experience and expertise, speak with the resourcing experts here at REED to find out how we could help you deliver your recruitment and retention plans in the Czech Republic where we are proud to be celebrating our fifth anniversary in April 2013.
However, if it is specific market intelligence that you would like, or an insight into candidate availability or current market rates, then our experienced consultants would be happy to help there too.
Similarly, if you anticipate making an executive or senior management appointment in the coming months, we have the recruitment expertise, contacts and capacity to help you bring in the best available talent to help drive your business forward.
We look forward to hearing from you.

Accounting & Finance Banking
The continued importance of finance professionals to the survival and growth of organisations will ensure individual roles continue to be filled when they become vacant. However, employers are increasingly also looking for financial candidates that additionally possess business acumen and good communication skills, so that they can bring even more value to the business.
In particular, we expect there will continue to be strong demand for Financial Controllers and Business Analysts.
The banking sector looks set for a fairly flat 2013, although we expect increased demand for front office positions dealing with high net worth individuals, as well as for experienced corporate bankers with strong acquisition skills and knowledge of English.

Sales & Marketing
Sales professionals with strong track records of success – whether as Key Account Managers or in New Business Acquisition roles – continue to be in very high demand, especially in the growing FMCG sector. Competition for these individuals is fierce, which is causing salary inflation.
Marketing continues to grow in stature and size, especially in the online and social media environments. However, the rapid rate at which marketing in the social media is expanding makes it inevitable that there is a marked shortage of proven specialists.
Sales
The IT sector is expected to grow in the next 12 months, as the Czech Republic remains attractive to investors because of its skilled local workforce and low production costs. This is expected to manifest itself through further investment in IT service centres and software development centres, as well as a strengthening of in-house IT functions.
The main demand will be for IT Developers, Analysts and Senior System Administration Specialists, while there is not expected to be much call for Project Managers and general IT Managers.
