LONDON has come out on top in a survey of the most desirable places to work on the planet.

The UK’s capital city beat off competition from New York, Paris and Sydney to come first in the worldwide survey of 200,000 workers across 189 countries.

When looking at countries as a whole, the UK came second, beaten only by the USA, in the poll which was undertaken by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), TotalJobs.com and THE network.

Rainer Strack, a BCG senior partner and one of the report’s four coauthors, commented:

“It’s a world in which the geographic barriers to employment are coming down, including in the minds of some of the most talented and highly educated workers.

“This is opening up significant opportunities for individuals and for the many countries and multinational companies that are facing talent shortages of one sort or another.”
