Public-sector hiring right now
GovJobs is tracking 24,037 open public-sector vacancies today, 10,440 of them added in the past seven days. Across the adverts that publish a salary, the median advertised starting figure is £34,665.
The organisations recruiting most heavily right now are Barchester Healthcare (429), Ministry of Justice (291), Cygnet Health Care (227) and Elysium Healthcare (207).
Geographically the roles cluster in North West (3,244), South East (3,126), West Midlands (2,889), London (2,617).
Recruitment announcements tend to lead the adverts by weeks or months. Rather than waiting for a campaign to open, a saved search on public-sector roles will tell you when the postings actually appear.
These figures are counted from the GovJobs index at the time you loaded this page, not from official statistics, and they change daily. They are our own analysis and are not part of the announcement summarised above.
