London, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/17/2021 -- Investment in the tech industry has risen significantly over the past year thanks to the sharp spike in demand due to the pandemic. As a result, tech-related vacancies now account for 13% of the total number of roles available in the country. The figure for the same period last year was just over 12%. The tech industry in Britain currently employs around 9% of the workforce but with many organisations making large investments in their tech teams over the course of 2021 this figure is only going to increase. So far this year around £13 billion has been invested by businesses in UK tech. The number of tech roles available is 42% higher than before the pandemic thanks to the central role that technology had in providing options for businesses trying to survive lockdowns etc. As we look ahead to 2022 the figure is likely to continue to rise as organisations seek to future proof infrastructure and systems.
