Speaking about the stats, Barbara Kolosinska, Co-Owner and Managing Director at C&M Travel Recruitment (http://www.candm.co.uk/), said: "The big annual rise in job placements is extremely welcome news, but after two very encouraging months in a row, travel recruitment activity dipped back in November.

"With December traditionally being the slowest month of the year for the jobs market, we're unlikely to see an immediate rebound. However, many candidates are still searching for new roles in the lead-up to Christmas, so this is a fantastic time for companies to hire top talent before competition truly heats up in the New Year."
