Yes, you need to hand the P45 from job 1 in to your new job and make it clear to the new job that this cancels the P46.
Did you earn enough to pay tax in job 1? If not, you wont get a P45 and you will need to ask job 2 for another P46 which you will sign top say its your main job. You will then need to contact the tax office to get a cumulative code sorted out.
