Job vacancies at London’s financial-services companies jumped by more than a third last month as firms sought more dealmakers, according to a recruitment firm.
The number of job openings in the Canary Wharf and City financial districts rose to 4,070 in April from 3,030 a month earlier, Astbury Marsden said in a statement Tuesday. The increase is 54 percent higher than the year-earlier period.
