I hope CoffeeHousers will forgive me for using the blog to advertise jobs, but we have some vacancies: Production Manager, Special Assistant to the Chairman and Researcher. Applications to editor@spectator.co.uk, saying in the heading which job you are interested in (update: applications for the researcher job are now closed. Everyone should have been sent details; email us if you haven’t been). Here are the jobs:
1. Researcher, who knows how to work Excel and has an inexhaustible capacity for digging and hard work in general. This is a research job, not a journalistic job, and may suit someone who’d otherwise be looking for work in a think tank. The two most important skills are accuracy and speed — in that order. We need someone who can use OBR data to show when CPI-adjusted earnings will return to pre-crash levels.
