Thank you in anticipation

    Have you tried the jobcentreplus site ? https://www.jobcentreplus.gov.uk

    I find another good place to look for jobs is your local council website, they normally have a section with all their vacancies on.
    I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.

    In general though the jobcentre are okay, remember that ususally the good points go unspoken.

    In proportion to the millions of people tehy deal with each year, the problems with the job finding part are very small, most problems relate to the benefits side,

    May be dependant on the area in which you are based, but the following may be of interest;

    London Recruitment
    Reed Employment Agency
    Job Serve
    Brook Street Recruitment Agency
    Adecco Recruitment

    Even if you choose not to work via an agency, the sites can be useful in highlighting what jobs are available in your area.

    I do not however recommend "fish4."

    As an ex-civil servant (and hope to be again soon) I just think they get too much of a raw deal.
