why oh why oh why oh why ..... can this job not be in Scotland?

This is exactly the kind of role I am looking for but to no avail. I only wish I could relocate!

Sorry to take up space here but I have just had an interview cancelled on me today and I'm feeling rather hard-done-by.

Good luck filling the position and if anyone out there reads this and has a similar position in Central Scotland please give me a bell.

Cheers

If you want more applicants broaden your criteria a bit and give an idea of salary.

Thanks to all those responding to the ad. I will be in touch in due course, most likely in two weeks time.

garyh - my criteria are quite broad at present and any package at this level is going to involve more than a basic salary i.e. sponsorship etc. I work on the premise that salary will be based on qualifications and experience rather than slap a token salary onto the position. Not sure I warm to your tone either.

Please no agencies.

Thanks
