I have just been told I have been given the push from work - b***ards!!.

Does anyone on here know of any companies employing IT managers/programme managers at the moment? If so then please let me know.

Any help appreciated!!

Cheers chaps,

Mike

Bad luck. Hope you at least got a decent package.

It's pretty quiet out there though, as a quick search on Jobserve/Monster/Gis-A-Job/CWJobs will show.

Better fire up the BBQ and settle in with a beer, eh?

I'd get down Tecos and do some shelf stacking. Oh that's not meant to be a **** take either. I've been there too and it's the only way to stay sane in between interviews

MickeyG - mail me some of your experience details, my company has a vacancy that might suit at the moment.

Best of luck with the search - I'm sure that you'll get what you want.

What Mike didn't say was that he actually had to relocate for his current job in the first place, so redundancy is even more disappointing

Fingers crossed for you!

That's bang out of order. [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Presumably, though, if you've had to relocate and then been made redundant, the compensation package should be even bigger?

Cheers for the support etc..Druddle & What would scooby do - I will be in touch.

Huge is right - we only moved 6 months ago, and have not even finished getting the house sorted. Bit of a sod all round!!

Again, manay thanks,

Mike

Have a look on our (Three) careers page Careers but use the 'search all jobs' option as the filter doesn't work too well.
