Plenty of FS demand in the North West - current Client Co already plenty of contractors on-site and actively trying to get loads more. Sounds the same at other companies nearby too.

Although the number of confirmed permanent job offers made within the industry fell by just 2% in January compared to December 2010, the fall in demand for contractors is quite startling, considering how much stability has returned to the permanent jobs market.

Big drop in demand for financial services contractors
What's the news on the ground, anyone facing the bench?
In the current climate people are not as inclined to move/winter holiday as much as they might have done.
Projects currently funded are shorter, i.e. finishing up in Jan/Feb.
Or new project are not kicking off during the year.
So March should be boomed for new roles

If you are a plain vanilla developer, quite possibly projects are being shelved temporarily, so doomed.
If you're business critical BI (risk, credit etc.), boomed.
