Bath Building Society
Bank Careers Direct has just Signed a new contract with the Bath Building Society we can now reveal so its now a chance to log on and check out the new jobs being advertised for the area of Bath.
Bath Building Society
The past two years have seen much investment in our business, with the introduction of new systems and processes designed to ensure the Society is managed with the highest professionalism for the interests of members.
The past two years have seen much investment in our business, with the introduction of new systems and processes designed to ensure the Society is managed with the highest professionalism for the interests of members.
The Society’s ethos is always to be responsive to our members’ needs, and a recent review of strategy has identified new directions for growth, whilst staying true to the values that our members and professional associates continually tell us they appreciate in Bath Building Society.
The cornerstone of our approach for the future is our emphasis on personal service, and our ability to meet the often varied and individual requirements that are presented to us.We feel that this requires a more flexible and tailored approach, especially in the development of niche propositions in the lending and savings markets, which have seen the Bath feature in “Best Buy” tables for both mortgages and savings in recent years.
Combine our local knowledge with a passion for treating people as individuals, and you have a personal service not matched by many in the industry.It’s a simple philosophy but one that’s working well for us.
In a nutshell, our members are not simply numbers to us.We are not ruled by computers, call centres and “customer relationship software”. We know from what our members tell us that they would rather talk to a real person than an automated voice message. And that they would rather have a relationship with our people than with our computers.

Cost effective recruitment solution for UK Banks
Recently launched internet recruitment business, Bank Careers Direct, claims it provides the UK Banking Sector with the lowest cost and highest quality recruitment solution ever. Dedicated to the recruitment of candidates for ‘customer facing’ jobs, banks can expect a targeted service geared to providing quality candidates.
Evolving from a more traditional off-line recruitment business, Bank Careers Direct provides a number of differentiators which makes it an attractive option for Bank Recruitment Managers.
Representatives from a range of UK High Street Banks were involved in the development of the service which includes many features that set it apart from other internet recruitment sites. Gary Pope, Founder and Director of Bank Careers Direct commented that the main reasons Banks are interested are:
Very low fees of just 5% of basic salary, with no other charges.
Low financial risk; Banks only pay a recruitment fee on the successful placement of a candidate
Banks can easily and securely upload their job advertisements directly onto the website free of charge
All candidate applications are professionally screened by Bank Careers Direct before being emailed directly to the recruitment manager
No other recruitment agencies are permitted to advertise on the site

Today's headline news at bankcareersdirect.com
Persimmon upbeat on house market
The government's housing drive may boost business, the firm says Persimmon, Britain's largest house builder, has unveiled a jump in profits and says it expects the housing market to remain robust.
Pre-tax profits for the six months to 30 June rose 9.8% to £281.1m as it racked up sales worth £1.51bn.
Looking ahead, forward sales for the second half stand at £1.35bn - about 85% of its full-year target.
Persimmon added that despite recent interest rate rises it still expected the housing market to remain strong.
The company added that despite the traditional summer lull, it believed the market would remain robust "as long as current assumptions on interest rates remain intact, and employment data continues to be supportive".
"This, coupled with general confidence in the housing market, should deliver the normal seasonal upturn in activity throughout the autumn selling period," it added.
Despite planning problems which have affected the industry as a whole, the firm said all of its divisions had experienced underlying price growth - albeit with some regional and local differences.
It also welcomed government plans to boost the country's housing stock, adding it had continued to increase its land bank providing a "strong platform" for the business.
Persimmon controlled 82,145 housing plots in the first six months of the year - up from 80,085 in December - as well as holding 22,000 acres of strategic land.

It also welcomed government plans to boost the country's housing stock, adding it had continued to increase its land bank providing a "strong platform" for the business.
Persimmon controlled 82,145 housing plots in the first six months of the year - up from 80,085 in December - as well as holding 22,000 acres of strategic land.

Global stocks boosted by Fed move
Japanese stocks had been hit hard in the recent slumpWorld stocks rose on Monday, regaining some ground after the US Federal Reserve cut a key bank lending rate.
London's FTSE 100 index was up 0.85% by 1050BST, Germany's Dax-30 added 0.6%, and France's Cac-40 gained 1.05%.
Earlier, Japan's Nikkei share index had closed 3% up, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng index ended 5.6%.
US and European markets had stabilised on Friday after the Fed cut the rate at which it lends to banks in an effort to stem the heavy losses in world markets.
The Nikkei had seen its biggest one-day fall in nearly six years on Friday, and other Asian markets had also slumped.
People still feel the market isn't really stable
Kingston Lin, Prudential Brokerage.
At Monday's close, the Nikkei was at 15,732.48 points, up 458.80 points, or 3%, from Friday.
South Korean shares also surged ahead, with its Composite Stock Price Index closing up 5.7% at 1,731.27, its biggest percentage gain in more than five years, according to the Korea Exchange.
Australian shares closed up 4.6% and Chinese stocks were ahead by 5.33%.
Financial stocks, which had been hardest hit in the recent sell-off, led the Asian rebound, pushing MSCI's index of Asian financial stocks up 5.3%.
India's benchmark share index opened 2.6% higher on Monday, tracking other Asian markets.
Caution
The recent market turmoil has been triggered by a wave of mortgage defaults in the US as the housing market slowed dramatically.
Markets across Europe and Asia were similarly buffeted on fears of a wider crisis in the financial system due to the huge liabilities of banks and other financial companies linked to the unstable sub-prime mortgage sector.
"Investor confidence has recovered a bit. Still, there are lingering worries over when the sub-prime crisis will actually end," said George Hsieh, who manages $545m for Capital Securities Investment Trust in Taiwan.
The Reserve Bank of Australia injected $2.67bn into the banking system to ward off pressure on some short-term market interest rates.
The Asian share gains were at levels last seen in April 2003, but some investors remained wary of the credit crisis.
"People still feel the market isn't really stable," said Kingston Lin, associate director at Prudential Brokerage.
"There's buying, but I think other people are selling into the rally. It's not safe to be aggressive."

UK pension funds hit by share dip
UK pension funds cannot escape global stock market problems UK pension funds have lost billions of pounds after stock markets tumbled amid credit crunch fears, reports suggest.
According to actuaries Aon Consulting, the UK's 200 biggest final salary pension schemes had a deficit of £26bn at the end of trading on Thursday.
And consultants Lane, Clark & Peacock (LCP) estimate that companies listed on the FTSE 100 stock index in London have a pensions shortfall of about £15bn.
That compares with surpluses of between £9bn and £12bn in July, the firms said.
Longer term
The worry for many analysts is that stock market declines will continue, wiping even more money off the value of pension funds and global stock markets.
However, Aon said that investors should not over-react to the decline in pension fund values.
Marcus Hurd, a senior consultant and actuary at Aon, urged investors to take a longer-term view, pointing out that at the start of 2007 the pension funds had a deficit of £40bn, while a year earlier it was more than £80bn.
"People shouldn't get too concerned about one week of falls," he said.
Even so, people who are close to retirement and not on a guaranteed benefit pension could feel the pinch as they do not have time to ride out the market volatility and make back losses, he explained.
Bob Scott, a partner at LCP, said that while the shift from surplus to deficit was significant, it was not "a case of the world ending".
And if anything, the current problems could act as a reminder for pension fund managers and trustees about the dangers that are inherent in investing too heavily in equities, he said.
Market wobbles
The recent slump in share prices was triggered by problems in the US mortgage market.
On Thursday, the UK's FTSE 100 index fell 4.1%, its worst session in more than four years.
Asian markets had heavy losses on Friday, and European markets had a shaky morning in trading.
At midday market indexes in London, Paris and Frankfurt were all in negative territory.

Discounts boost UK retail sales
Shoppers seemed undeterred by rising interest rates UK retail sales increased more than expected in July, helped by discounted goods, figures from the Office for National Statistics have shown.
Sales were up 0.7% month-on-month, marking the biggest rise since February, and more than three times above analysts' expectations of 0.2%.
Sales were up 4.4% on the same point a year earlier.
However, the underlying rate of growth in the three months to July fell to 1.1%, down from 1.4% in June.
Rate debate
Analysts said the stronger-than-expected monthly figures could restart the debate over whether there should be another rate rise to 6%.
The Bank of England has increased UK interest rates five times during the past year, taking them to 5.75%, and until the past few days it was expected to raise them once more before the end of the year.
But on Tuesday, a sharp fall in the rate of consumer prices index (CPI) inflation to 1.9% led many analysts to predict that there would be no rate rises in the short term.
The retail sales data showed that goods whose prices were reduced included furniture and electrical goods, helping raise the sale of household goods by 13.4% year-on-year - the largest rise in nearly six years.
Overall sales of non-food goods rose 7.1% on a year earlier, the highest rate for three years.
On the downside, the bad weather contributed to a drop in the sale of summer foods - with sales 0.8% lower than the level seen in July 2006.
