IT systems administrators, also known as system administrators, maintain a company’s computers, servers, networks, enterprise software and security systems. The profession has always been valuable for many companies, but after the digital transformation our island is going through in the recent years the profession has become vital.

We believe that IT Administrators, Servers, Infrastructure will be in demand in Cyprus a lot more than the past years as more companies are relocating in Cyprus from abroad and already established companies are expanding or updating their systems and networks.

Businesses of all sizes are using digital marketing techniques to stay relevant and increase brand awareness.

It is important to add that digital marketers have become more popular after the pandemic and the rise of more social media channels such as TikTok. This is causing many companies to seek digital marketers or digital agencies to achieve reaching a broader audience through online channels such as websites, email marketing, google advertising and social media platforms.

Accountants

Accounting has been one of the most popular professions in Cyprus and it will continue to be in 2024. Accountants are valuable in tax planning and company registrations. For these reasons, they are valuable for our economy.

Accounting is vital for companies and organizations as it keeps a systematic record of their financial information. The records help individuals to compare current financial information to previous data. With full, consistent, and accurate records, it allows them to assess the performance of a company over a period of time. The profession will continue to grow in Cyprus, according to data, ICPAC currently has more than 5,500 professional accountants as members and 3,500 students.

Auditors

On the other hand, auditing is the process that focuses on ensuring the accuracy and legality of financial statements, it verifies the accuracy and eligibility of the records and statements presented by accounting. It is extremely vital to determine the profit and loss and the financial position of an organization for a certain period of time.

After explaining the reason auditors are valuable assets to our economy, as a recruitment agency in Cyprus we predict that they will be in demand in 2024 and for many years to come.

Hospitality Employees

Our hospitality sector has always been in high demand, and it keeps growing, as tourists visiting the island are increasing each year. Many new hotels and restaurants have opened recently, and they are looking for employees to help them provide an excellent customer experience to their visitors.

The foreign investments and businesses relocating to Cyprus have increased and they open doors for the hospitality industry as well. For example, banqueting staff are required more now than in the past years. It is easy to predict that our rapid growth in the hospitality sector will increase the demand for more hospitality employees.

Reception/Front of House

Similarly with the hospitality industry, receptionists and front of the house people will be needed as new businesses are flourishing in Cyprus. They are the first person someone will see when they enter a company, and their place is significant to provide good customer service and experience.

This position would be important to many new businesses coming to Cyprus in 2024 but also to already established companies and businesses in many sectors that required a receptionist/front of the house person to assist their visitors or clients.

They are really high in demand as they help companies to solve problems, understand and utilize their data in the best way possible.
