Why work in Jersey?
Jersey is a recognised centre for offshore finance, with some 12,000 professionally trained staff working within finance and support industries. Many global financial services organisations have an offshore base in Jersey, and the sector is augmented by local companies offering specialised services to offshore and expatriate clients. Jersey has a cosmopolitan nature, and as such most European languages are spoken and can be used for business transaction. The opportunities for career development and progression within the Island are substantial, particularly with a new policy on immigration (migration policy) scheduled to come into effect in the near future.
Jersey is a low tax location, and the advantages of working in Jersey are compounded when the additional lifestyle benefits are included. Jersey has a more relaxed lifestyle than many other locations, but as befits a tourism destination, includes more recreational facilities than many much larger destinations. Combined with the beautiful countryside and beaches, Jersey is an excellent destination for both career and lifestyle.
