More money? Better flexibility? A bit more responsibility? Or maybe just a role where you can really get stuck in and enjoy what you do?

This week's five cover everything from Lettings and Estate Agency to senior Legal opportunities, with salaries reaching £75k, hybrid working and some cracking earning potential.

Whether you're looking for your next step up, a better package or simply something that feels a bit more YOU, have a nosey at these...

✔️ Commercial Property Solicitor | York | £60k–£75k + bonus

✔️ Residential Property Solicitor / CILEX Lawyer | North Yorkshire | £42k–£55k + bonus

✔️ Sales Valuer / Branch Manager | Colne Valley | OTE £40k–£45k + potential profit share

✔️ Lettings Negotiator | Leeds City Centre | £28k basic + OTE up to £40k

Some VERY different opportunities there, and you don't need to be actively job hunting to have a conversation.

You might just be curious about what's out there, what you're worth or whether there's something better suited to you.

Give me a shout. A little nosey never hurt anyone! 👀

Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day. 🤎

I think about this one a lot. I describe myself in my own LinkedIn bio as a Wellbeing & Neurodiversity Advocate, and I'm open about having Combination ADHD, so this isn't an abstract topic for me, it's something I live with day to day.

Work is where most of us spend the majority of our waking hours. If something's not right there, whether that's the job itself, the people, the pace, or just life spilling over into it, it doesn't stay neatly contained to 9-to-5. It follows you home.

If you're an employer, tomorrow's a good prompt to actually ask your team how they're doing, properly, not as a tickbox. If you're job hunting or currently unhappy in a role, it's worth remembering that how a job makes you feel day to day isn't a small detail. It's one of the most important ones.

Whichever side of this you're on, take care of yourselves – not just tomorrow, but every day 🤎

It's Dyslexia Awareness Day. 🧠

I talk fairly openly about neurodiversity and wellbeing at work, and one thing that comes up a lot is how little space most interviews leave for anyone whose brain doesn't work in a completely “standard” way.

A timed test, a rapid-fire Q&A, a pile of forms to fill in on the spot, none of that measures whether someone can actually do the job. It just measures how comfortable they are with that specific format, under that specific pressure.

If you're dyslexic, or neurodivergent in any way, and you've ever come out of an interview feeling like it didn't reflect what you're actually capable of, that's not just in your head. Plenty of processes are built around a narrow idea of what "capable" looks like on the day.

If you need a bit more time, a question in advance, or the chance to talk through an example rather than write one down cold, it's always worth asking. A decent employer will make that adjustment without blinking. If they won't, that tells you something useful too.

Black History Month starts today. 🤎

I could write the obvious post here. Instead, I'd rather say the less comfortable thing: inclusive hiring isn't something to think about once a year, in one specific month, and then quietly forget about again. It's something that should already be built into how you write job ads, run interviews and make final decisions, every single month.

So instead of a general statement, here's a genuine question worth sitting with: where do your applicants actually come from, and just as importantly, where don't they come from? Does your interview process reward people who interview in a way that feels familiar to you, or does it reward people who'd actually do the job well? And if you're honest with yourself, would your team even notice if this month's social media awareness post was the only time inclusion came up all year?

None of those questions have a comfortable answer for most businesses. That's rather the point. A post is easy. Genuinely checking your own process is harder, and worth more.

This isn't about a statement for October. It's about whether your process holds up to a proper look at it, in whichever month you choose to check.

A Translation Guide for Job Ads

Let's decode a few classics. 🕵️

"Fast-paced environment" = understaffed.

"Wear many hats" = one job description, four actual jobs.

"Competitive salary" = we're not telling you, and you probably won't like it.

"Great work-life balance" = we put it in writing because someone asked in an exit interview.

None of this is a dig, everyone's guilty of at least one. Just worth reading your own ad back and asking which one you've accidentally written.

Which other ones have you heard in job ads? Let us know in the comments.

How to Actually Talk About a Career Gap

Not a bother if there's a gap on your CV. Here's how to actually talk about it, properly. 🗓️

Most people handle a gap one of two ways. Either they over-explain it until it sounds far worse than it actually was, filling twenty minutes of an interview justifying six months off. Or they avoid it completely and hope nobody asks, which almost always backfires, because someone always asks.

There's a better way. Say what it was, plainly: caring responsibilities, redundancy, health, travel, retraining, whatever it genuinely was. Add one honest line about what you did with the time or what you took from it, if there's something real to say. Then move on to the next question. You don't need to apologise for it three separate times across one interview, and you don't need to turn it into the main event.

A gap on its own is rarely a red flag to a decent employer. What actually raises eyebrows is someone who's clearly uncomfortable talking about it, because that discomfort suggests something's being hidden, even when it isn't. Being matter-of-fact does almost all of the work for you.

That Job Spec Is Still Describing Your Last Hire

Here's the bones of it: most job specs aren't written for the role you need now. They're written for the person who just left. 📋

It happens without anyone noticing. A job spec gets recycled, tweaked slightly, and sent back out, still shaped entirely around someone else's strengths and quirks.

Before it goes out again, it's worth checking three things:

1. If your last hire was brilliant at one thing and hopeless at another, does the spec still reflect that, rather than what the role actually needs?

2. Has what the team needs changed in the last eighteen months, even if the job title hasn't?

3. Would a spec that's honest about the real gap get a better response than one that's quietly still describing the last person?

Before the next job goes out, it's worth asking what this role needs now, not who used to sit in the chair.

🔥 Hot Jobs This Week 🔥

Got that little “what else is out there?” feeling? 👀

I’ve got a really mixed bag this week, from the chance to build a Sales & Lettings operation in Kendal, to a proper 360 Sales Negotiator role in Penrith where your deals = your commission.

Over in Manchester, I’m looking for someone who knows their way around property client accounts for a hybrid role with progression, and in Huddersfield I’ve got a Senior Property Manager opportunity where they’ll even consider a 4-day week 🙌

✔️ Sales & Lettings Manager | Kendal | £50k-£60k+ OTE
✔️ Sales Negotiator | Penrith | £38k+ OTE
✔️ Property Client Accounts Executive | Manchester | Hybrid
✔️ Senior Property Manager | Huddersfield | 4 days considered

You don’t need to be desperately job hunting to speak to me. Sometimes a little nosey at what else is out there is exactly where it starts!
