Nearly Two-thirds of IT techies are willing to exchange their jobs In 2016, so Where will they move?

Nearly 63% of IT employees are planning to change jobs in 2016 and almost 31% of those say that they're looking around because they want higher pay, a report by recruitment firm Hays UK has found.

So who will move, where will they move, and where should they move?

Computing has examined data from recruitment firm Harvey Nash and job site CV-Library to try and figure out which technology roles are most in demand, which roles offer the best salaries, and which are the most headhunted job types.

The most in-demand jobs - those that had the largest number of vacancies listed on the site - were dominated by developer roles.

Web developers, software developers, front-end developers and developers specialising in Java, PHP, .NET and C# all featured highly on the list, with the biggest year-on-year increases in demand for front-end developers (60 per cent), C# developers (44 per cent), Java developers (37 per cent) and senior Java developers (34 per cent).

Meanwhile, other roles that saw big increases in demand from 2014 to 2015 were data analysts (45 per cent), software engineers (34 per cent) and IT support technicians (45 per cent).
