Admin, Payroll & Accounts

If the UK IT industry needs 150,000 new recruits a year but only 20,000 young people are graduating in IT related Degrees, then the IT industry needs to stop being ageist and throwing people on the scrapheap when they reach 35. If I were a young student I would be put of IT if I thought my skills would only give me about 10 years of employment. Give people a job for life in IT if they want it, and people would be happy to follow this line of career. Me? I am in admin and accounts, try as they might no employer can do without at least one of me! :o)
