Your CV is the first opportunity to make an impression and to present your skills in the market place.

Another week seems to have come and gone very quickly, and I am now back in the swing of things after getting married a couple of weeks ago, luckily as it has been busy here it has helped me get back into things quickly! I think like most people I am very pleased that Feb is a short month, pay day comes round quickly and hopefully we will start to see some more signs of Spring soon. If you are looking for a new role or a change of life style, why not have a look on our website and see if there are any new roles which take your interest – www.branwellford.co.uk
Looking forward to this afternoon as I have a half day reward for beating my monthly all time best billings in December! That is all the more gratifying given the economic climate and a clear indication that the pensions and employee benefits job sector is on the rise again. This year, although having got off to a slow start, is beginning to improve even more, particularly in the DC Consulting and TPA Operations areas.

A belated happy new year to you all!! Well we’ve all managed to nearly make it through January but I read on the BBC News website that misery is expected to peak on Monday, as 24 January has been pinpointed as the worst day of the year!! As it’s been nearly a whole month since Christmas, I’m sure some of us have abandoned our New Year resolutions or perhaps fallen off the wagon. So we need something to look forward to….just think, it’s only 60 days until our next Bank Holiday!! Alternatively, why not start looking for a new role. The pensions jobs market is still fairly buoyant, and we’d love to hear from you even if it is to update us on your circumstances. So call your Consultant now on 01279 859000 or check out our website for new jobs www.branwellford.co.uk
It’s the first week back for most people and although our offices were open between Christmas and the New Year, I think we are enjoying the routine of being back in the office, but I need to get back in the swing of early mornings. The recruitment market is always interesting at this time of year; there is the anticipation of new jobs and catching up with our clients on their plans. We have been undertaking a number of be-spoke salary surveys, so if you have any questions or to register for corporate pension roles, do call me on 01279 859000 or email pip@branwellford.co.uk
I have now started to join the world of recruitment as I am being trained as a consultant here at BranWell Ford. I am recruiting on the SIPP and SASS desk of the Pensions industry and beginning to contact our clients and candidates to introduce myself. Therefore I look forward to speaking to more of you over the next few weeks. It has been a very interesting few weeks training and I am looking forward to continuing my role in the recruitment industry. If you do have any SIPP or SASS vacancies or any other pension vacancies, please contact us on 01279 859000 or recruit@branwellford.co.uk.
As most of you will now be aware Hayley has returned from her maternity leave and it is great to have her back and has definitely lightened the load for me, although the amount of chocolate and sweets that has returned with her to the office is very hard to resist! I will continue to work on the TPA market and I will work with candidates and vacancies up to a salary of £30,000pa. My new challenge is working on the in-house market, I am now assisting Christine with junior roles and so far I have found this area is really picking up!! The candidate market does seem to of gone quite quiet in comparison to last year, so if you do know of any friends or colleagues that are actively looking for a new role, Branwell Ford do operate a referral scheme and you will receive £100 of vouchers if the candidate is placed successfully. Details of this are on our website.
