Quarterly Insights | Q1 2025

Sarah Bolitho • April 23, 2025

Levyl is proud to publish our Q1 Insights Guide for our People & Culture community.

This guide reflects on the January to March 2025 period across the Australian People & Culture recruitment market and makes predictions on what is to come next for the April to June period ahead.


We do expect to see a subtle increase in confidence across the market in Q2 but not without cautiousness. There is positive news for candidates with strong ER/IR experience with these skills being in strong demand as is the same for senior leaders with change and transformation capability.


💡What’s Inside:

  • Data on Q1 job ad activity, including shifts by state and HR role type
  • Insights on where demand is growing, softening, or stabilising across the P&C market
  • Candidate behaviour trends drawn from real-time hiring conversations and market data
  • Practical guidance to help employers and job seekers navigate the months ahead - grounded in what’s already transpired this year and what will matter looking ahead.
