linkedin

the actual jobcentre site
jobs.ac.uk (for academic related)
monster

also industry specific are very good, eg theengineer.co.uk for engineering jobs.

As above + totaljobs

Have you looked on your local paper website? Quite often they have a careers section that is quite good as it's jobs that aren't 150 miles away!

hadn't thought about LinkedIn.

Depending on your industry (?) many companies use it as a way of getting people who are linked to the right people to apply. Some very good jobs get put there and often nowhere else apart from the company website!

I got mu current gig through connections on Linkedin, so I'd say it's well worth looking at.

The ? above is to ask your industry - Am sure someone here may well know someone/something specific to help you!

I am currently an account manager in the construction industry (I work for a main contractor). I am on LinkedIn but I've only ever used it to stalk people (I'm not on Facebook). Not literally, obviously. So I might need to put a bit of work in to get the full potential out of it, but that's not a problem!

Who's linked to CFH on LinkedIn then?

'Tis a very useful site: it's got me a gig before, and a very useful one at that.

Hill McGlynn (now part of Randstat (sp?)) are / were a construction industry recruitment company. They're based in Whiteley (near Fareham) now, I think. Might help, hopefully...

Just received a call from an HR guy from a company rather than an agency because he saw my CV on an industry specific site. Work smart, not hard.
