Sales, Marketing & Customer Service Occupations
Despite the lower than average annual employment growth over the five-year period for sales-related occupations, employment numbers have been increasing since 2020. High levels of inflation and changing consumer behaviour patterns will likely further impact on the future demand for these occupations. The data from Enterprise Ireland’s Spotlight on Skills also highlights the increasingly sophisticated nature of skills required for many sales and marketing roles across a range of sectors, including manufacturing (including food), ICT and finance.
