5 jobs of the future in Singapore as robots rise

More tech could mean job variety.

Will there be fewer jobs in the future? Not according to recruiting experts Hays. It argues that robotics and technical innovation will not spell the end of many jobs as we know it, but will instead help make us more productive and create new types of work and jobs for the future.

“Equally, the advances in data science and artificial intelligence are opening up new ways to look at businesses and generating insights that can lead to major productivity improvements. I'm investing in those areas in my own business, but to best equip people with the tools to do a better job, not to replace them,” says Hays’s CEO Alistair Cox.

Cox believes that businesses will need people as much, if not more, than they will need robots. Hays shared 5 jobs of the future in Singapore as a result of the rise of the robots.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
