Is Canary Wharf the New City?

Canary Wharf is a region of national significance. It has been sited by many, as being the strongest single symbol of the economic geography of the United Kingdom. With employment levels expected to increase dramatically over the next six years, recruitment agencies and HR professionals are gearing up for the demanding and eventful period ahead.

ìThe shift east from The City to Canary Wharf has hardly happened overnight but in the last two years the number of roles we’ve recruited for in Canary Wharf has mushroomed. Roughly a tenth of our clients have taken headquarters there creating thousands of jobs in finance and in turn changing the way we view ’the new City’. People talk effusively about the fantastic facilities, the dynamic atmosphere and, perhaps most surprisingly, about the new found glamour of the area. We don’t mind a bit!î
