    Hi Dipsy

    From my contracts Jobserve was popular but IMO less so now

    Other routes I would try Technojobs which always has loads of IT contracts and some people have said Linkedin but I dont think is great for contracts. Maybe worth a try.

    If you're looking Brighton area, wired sussex focuses on digital businesses with a number of IT jobs advertised (no agencies), I got three of my five full-time roles through the site.
    I think there is a "Projects" are specifically for contract roles but they also pop up in the normal ads.

    I hadn't realised that Brighton had relocated to the OP's location of South Yorkshire :rotfl:
  • I thought they said SE (south east)

    Ah, yes, that explains it. I think in this instance SE means Self Employed (although it's unlikely to actually be real self employment).

    reed.co.uk
    jobserve.co.uk
    cwjobs.co.uk

    They're the three i use. Cant think why an agency would not use one of those sites unless its a very specific job role.
