With Government borrowing soaring, is the Public Sector gravy train about to grind to a halt? Not a bit of it. The Civil Service jobs website is currently advertising an historically weighty 214 vacancies, including Insolvency Support Officers at the, er, Insolvency Service; Research Knowledge Brokers and a Research Uptake Team Leader at the Department for International Development; an Architecture Assurance Manager at National Savings and Investments; a Welsh Translator at HM Revenue & Customs and a Head of Finance Professionalism (sic) at HM Treasury.
Happy days!

Sign of the Times
As thousands of City types lose their jobs, at least they can console themselves with moves into the UK's one major growth industry - the public sector.
Job ads in the Business Leaders section of today's FT ask for non-execs of the UK Financial Investments Ltd - effectively Britain's sovereign wealth (sic) fund which manages stellar investments such as Northern Rock and Bradford & Bingley - while there are more part-time directors required at the Tote, the state-run bookmaker.
It's a sign of our (Financial) Times.
