The Bishopsgate Institute in London currently have vacancies for an archivist (temp - maternity leave cover) and Programme Manager

 
Social media exec needed at my employers - could be based at London, Birmingham or Edinburgh offices, but also likely to be very flexible about working from home.

Also Paid Conversion Rate Optimisation person wanted, based in Birmingham (again WFH-friendly in all likelihood) who has 5+ years experience around paid online traffic

Contact me if interested/
 
Fancy driving a Docklands Light Railway train for real?

They are advertising for 'Passenger Service Agents' at Poplar (although suggestion elsewhere is that some jobs may be at Beckton.) More here

While the trains run in automatic mode most of the time, and the PSA usually closes the doors then presses the button marked 'go', PSA's do need to be able to drive the thing in an emergency (tories tend to ignore this when they go burbling on about the DLR being 'driverless' and wanting the underground to be the same) so it's a fairly serious 'safety critical' role, so there's likely to be medical / eyesight standards and initial / random drugs / alcohol testing.

fairly decent money when qualified (suggestion elsewhere is it's something like £ 48K - less than this during training which is about 3 months), like most transport jobs it's shift work over 7 days a week (think they close xmas day but that's about it.) i'm not involved with them, and don't know how the shift patterns work, but trains are running from about 0500 to 0100 each day, so there's going to be some very early and very late shifts bearing in mind those are the public times, and the trains have to be woken up and put to bed at each end of that. I don't know if the last and first trains are close enough to each other for there to be some night shifts.

Closing date is 11 July, although this sort of thing tends to close early if they get a lot of applications (and this probably will)
 
Marketing executive and marketing manager roles going at my place, mainly working with emails for our membership organisation - London based but can probably be flexible and will definitely be OK with workinhg from home part of the week when things settle down. Message me if interested.
 
We have a bunch of roles in tech, product and sales currently available in Manchester: Booking.com Careers: Discover a world of possibilities
I had a job interview with them a few years ago. I suspect I didn't get the job, presumably because of 'fit' aka age discrimination. The young woman who interviewed me asked me, pointedly, along the lines 'The rest of the team are all young, how would feel about working with young people?'

I explained that in my previous role I'd worked mostly with people in their twenties and we all got along fine and even socialised together.

I wasn't surprised, though, when I was informed I'd been unsuccessful, after what she'd said, she clearly seemed to think I was too old (then in my forties) to work with people in their twenties.
 
Housmans Bookshop, in Caledonian Road (Kings Cross) are looking for a part time evening events host - about 4 evenings a month, so very much part time

 
Albert Kennedy Trust (housing related advice etc to young LGBTQ+ people) are seeking temporary caseworkers in London and Manchester (8 weeks' work, start soonest possible)

 
One of my lovely fellow editors is leaving, so we will have a vacancy going soon. Editing online professional journal on built environment, could work for someone from journalistic or editorial background, ideally with experience of managing online content, but doesn't have to be a digital expert necessarily. Knowledge of built environment/construction helps, but not a necessity - previous editors have come from backgrounds of academia and freelance writing/editorial, for example. It is nominally London based but they're pretty open to home working (one editor is based in Midlands and was before COVID). Drop me a PM if interested, or know anyone who might be. Base pay £30-35k I think (thought I should say, given that editorial role pay varies so wildly within same job title)
 
If anyone knows of a young person that would qualify for an apprenticeship who fancies a career in the live events industry, drop me a PM. Would need to be Birmingham (or close enough to commute) based.

Further to this, there’s now a full time live events tech role going at Birmingham Uni. Great job, chance for lots of training and progression. Only downside is that I’d be your boss, but you can’t have everything.

Again, PM for details or if you know anyone that might be interested.

Uhm, if you'd like to be my co-editor, we're looking and haven't seen any really good CVs yet. London/home-based (we have team members in Midlands and Canada though!); journal for property professionals, this role would cover things like housing, planning, home surveying, sustainability, professional ethics, all actually surprisingly interesting stuff. Would suit someone with a few years' experience of article commissioning/writing skills and experience, don't have to know about property but willing to learn and do research, some digital content experience would be good but again, not necessary. Nice team, not stressful - PM if you'd like details.
 
Looking for a freelance/contract sales for our B2B software consultancy to support us during US sales calls. Prefer a yank and/or someone with experience in that market.

PM me for details. The role will start out supporting us on a per-call basis but should grow, so you should be able to fit it in around other work.

While we would prefer US market experience, it's more important that you have B2B sales experience at the mid to large enterprise level and can understand or learn SAP procurement software and/or know about it already.

They're also interested in writers and content creators on a freelance basis.
