DWP recruitment drive for work coaches
Our DWP district office thought we might be interested in applying for these new, externally advertised Executive Officer grade, work coach jobs in Jobcentres across the land.
The link to the ads on the civil service recruitment page is https://goo.gl/IIwN6o
I wonder why the posts in Scotland and Wales don’t seem to have any opportunity for pay progression?

They want you to move to England? :)

Back in the day when I worked for the DHSS at an inner London office (except it was about 250 yards outside the inner London pay zone, unlike the UBO which was about the same distance within - so they got higher pay!) the only staff DHSS could get to fill vacant EO/HEO posts were individuals who had failed their promotion board but were willing to move from the far flung reaches of GB to fill the vacancies.
Thanks Peter. That’s the sort of lovely detail we miss nowadays. Unintentional consequences and all that.
