Highlights
- 80% of roles are backfills; only 20% are genuinely new.
- GRC salaries are rising by 12% on average, and 84% of hiring managers will now pay above market rate for niche skills; especially AI governance, data ethics, cyber and deep privacy expertise.
- This is a very real signal: organisations know they are behind, and are trying to buy capability quickly.
