We only started tracking job ads on 16 October, so this outlook rests on very little data and we rate nothing High.
The projects in this month's news (floating pilots, large UK offshore farms, a new market) are early and not expected to hire before about 2028, and most crews will move across from other projects.
For now, keep GWO BST, Slinger Signaller, offshore medical and HV authorisation valid, and apply to the current ads for installation, commissioning and service work, mainly in the UK, Germany and Taiwan.
