We’re working with a well-established family-run automotive business in Croydon that is looking for an experienced Vehicle Service Technician to join its friendly workshop team. With just five technicians in the workshop, you won’t be lost in a sea of job cards — and you’ll have your own workshop and working area to get on with the job properly. Even better?

There are no regular engine rebuilds or complex engine repairs — this is a role focused on quality servicing, maintenance and mechanical work. What We’re Looking For We’re looking for an experienced technician who knows their way around a vehicle and doesn't need the Haynes manual to tell them which end of the car is which. You'll need: • Minimum 5 years’ experience as a Vehicle Technician • Level 2 NVQ, IMI or equivalent qualification in Light Vehicle Maintenance & Repair, or manufacturer-specific accreditation • Confidence carrying out Vehicle Health Checks and routine servicing independently • Experience resetting service lights and service intervals • A full UK driving licence Experience with these brands?

An MOT Licence would be great, but it’s not essential. What You’ll Get Because a decent technician should get more than just a decent set of tools. • £35,000–£45,000 basic salary • Monday–Friday, 8:00am–5:30pm • No Saturdays. Ever. • 20 days’ holiday + bank holidays • Free local parking • Free MOT for your primary vehicle • Discounted parts at cost price/main dealer discount • Closed over Christmas/New Year, using just 3 days of annual leave • Internal training and development • Support with external training courses if you want to keep developing • A genuine work-life balance • Great team culture • Unpaid leave considered where required A Workshop Where You Can Actually Get On With the Job This is a family-oriented business with a close-knit team and a straightforward approach. You’ll be working alongside just four other technicians, with your own working area and the support of an experienced team. There’s no Saturday scramble, no endless pressure to upsell work and no expectation that every fault code requires a three-hour investigation involving a laptop, three coffees and a call to the manufacturer. It’s a proper technician role, in a proper workshop, with proper time off. If you’re an experienced Vehicle Technician looking for a long-term role where you can do good work, develop your skills and still have a life outside the workshop, we’d like to hear from you.

Pharmacist / Pharmacy Technician
Government Recruitment Service - London
£44,054 to £44,054 a year
TemporaryFull time
In the Department of Health and Social Care, we are proud of our purpose – to enable everyone to live more independent, healthier lives for longer. To achieve this, and create a great place to work, we have four values: we are inclusive, we constantly improve, we challenge, and we are agile. If this sounds like an environment you would like to work in, we would love to hear from you. Medicines are a key medical intervention and the second largest element of NHS expenditure. The department’s Medicines Supply Team (MST) is responsible for overseeing the NHS pharmaceutical supply chain, ensuring that patients get the medicines they need. This work is focused on the management of medicines shortages and discontinuations. Medicine supply is global, with the UK hugely dependent on medicines from the EU and from further afield. There are multiple threats to the continuity of supply of medicines to the UK, including (often unknown) disruptions to global manufacturing and/or transportation/supply chains, including disruptions in countries on which the UK supply chain is highly dependent, such as China and India. There will always be a number of medicines shortage that need to be managed at any given time, but the government has a responsibility to take up-stream preventative action to help minimise the number and impact of those shortages. For more critical shortages, the team escalate and discuss the issue with the Medicine Shortage Response Group, working with national clinical experts across the UK to develop management plans that can be adopted locally so that patients can be managed appropriately. The Medicine Supply Team also provides professional pharmacy and operational input to other wider policy areas within the Medicines Directorate, including pricing policy, and sit on the pricing committee which is responsible for assessing and agreeing the price of all new branded medicines before they can be launched in England. There is considerable stakeholder engagement in this role, including senior pharmacists within NHS England and the devolved administrations, regulatory bodies including the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), global counterparts and senior DHSC officials and ministers. The postholder will also develop excellent relationships with individual pharmaceutical companies. The successful candidate will demonstrate outstanding problem-solving skills, and effective partnership working with a range of internal and external stakeholders. They will also need the ability to grasp complex matters quickly and be able to translate this into clear advice. They will ideally also have digital experience to support the upkeep of the teams’ supply issues reporting portal and other potential platforms as they are launched. The successful applicant would be joining a very flexible team that regularly needs to change focus and re-prioritise within the context of shifting threats to continuity of supply of medicines. The post-holder will need to be very adaptable and exhibit a capability to move to work on other aspects of medicines supply at short notice, whilst being supported in their professional development and working closely with pharmacists and pharmacy technicians across the team. Please note if applying for the role on a part time basis, the successful candidate will be required to work a minimum of 0.9 full-time equivalent (FTE).
