The Belgian HR industry is facing several challenges, such as high wage costs, talent scarcity and changing employee expectations. With emerging innovative technologies, many of which powered by AI, the industry is trying to speed up HR processes and enhance employee experience.
A remarkable trend in these industries is the growing appreciation of digital marketing skills, which increasingly influence the salary structure. For example, a junior digital marketer can start with a salary of almost €30,000 a year and grow to €50,000 a year (after a minimum of 6 years' experience).
The IT industry is still the place to be for highly skilled professionals in 2024. Why? Because the sector is booming due to the growing demand for digital solutions, such as cyber security, automation and cloud infrastructure. This means that there are many interesting and challenging jobs, with nice salaries and many nice perks. Finding and keeping qualified staff is therefore the industry's biggest challenge.
