October each year marks Stoptober, the 28-day stop smoking campaign from Public Health England, which encourages thousands of people across the nation to quit smoking.

Our recent CSAT survey results showed us that there has been a significant uptake in the use of our Vacancy Authorisation option, as well as an increase in satisfaction for this feature.

For those who are yet to use the vacancy authorisation, we have created a step-by-step guide to assist you.

You can use this feature on NHS Jobs to support the approval of a vacancy to be published online. One or more approvers can be identified for a vacancy and once the relevant vacancy details have been entered, the system will move the vacancy to each of the approvers in turn.
