Contrary to popular belief, there’s more to October than fully grown adults dressed as Buzz Lightyear…
If you’re not much of a Halloween person, and Oktoberfest isn’t really your scene, it can be all too easy to feel as though you have nothing to look forward to this month. However, with over 200,000 jobs live on reed.co.uk and some of the UK’s biggest brands looking for staff, October doesn’t have to be all that scary when it comes to your career.
To help you prepare for the incoming zombie apocalypse (see: extreme workplace boredom), here are some of the top companies hiring this October on reed.co.uk:

From Manchester’s best kept fashion secret to one of the fastest growing international e-tailers, it’s been quite the meteoric rise for boohoo.com. Combining cutting-edge design with an affordable price tab, they don’t compromise when it comes to fashion – and the same applies to their employees.
They are currently looking for creative and passionate people to fill a number of positions, from Customer Service Advisors and Warehouse Supervisors, through to roles in User Experience, Marketing, and a Social Media.

Dyson
If you’re starting to feel like the dust has settled on your career, it may be time to grab the hoover.
Founded in 1993 by inventor James Dyson, the company that shares his name has completely changed the way we look at the conventional vacuum cleaner. They even took the bag out.
Dyson now sells machines in over 70 countries worldwide, and employs over 4,000 people. But it isn’t just about sticking people behind a desk. Dyson is about making a difference.
They’re looking for Customer Service and Sales Associates who can help drive their business forward. Benefits include excellent opportunities for career progression, competitive salaries and a CEO that actively encourages failure*. What’s not to like?
Locations: Throughout the UK and Ireland.

Ernst & Young
You hate Mondays because you hate your job. You should work for Ernst and Young…
If you did, you’d be working for one of the ‘big four’ professional service firms. You’d also probably know that Ernst and Young are now known simply as EY. How’s that for efficiency, eh?
EY provide a wide range of assurance, tax, consulting and financial advisory services to clients in over 150 countries across the world. When they’re not making revenues in the tens of billions, they’re looking for staff to add to their 190,000 strong team. They also do lots of other things with calculators we don’t quite understand.
So if you’re interested in Auditing, Data Analytics or Asset Management, and want to help build a better working world, get in touch with EY today. If you’re not sure what any of these things are, but are just excited about the calculator thing, it’s probably not the right role for you.
Locations: Throughout the UK.
Enterprise Rent-A-Car
Feel like your career’s gone off Corsa? Looking to regain your Focus and get your career back on the road? Want us to stop using car names and start telling you about the jobs?
Add an annual turnover of more than £10 billion to a rental and leasing fleet made up of more than one million vehicles spread across some 8,100 locations worldwide and you get Enterprise Rent-A-Car – a business that’s grown into arguably the largest car rental company in the world.
Their current recruitment drive is focused on finding Graduate Management Trainees with a passion for providing excellent management and industry leading customer service. The ability to use car models in sentences is not a pre-requisite, but will not count against you.

Thomas Cook
If you’re looking out of the window always wishing you were somewhere else, we may have found the perfect position for you.
Thomas Cook is the world’s best-known name in travel, thanks to the inspiration and dedication of a one man (you can guess his name). Formed in 1841 and offering a one-day rail excursion from Leicester to Loughborough, Thomas Cook launched a whole new kind of company – devoted to helping Britons see the world (N.B. routes have now been expanded beyond East Midlands train lines).
They’re looking to fill a number of positions, ranging from Assistant Managers and Marketing Consultants through to Costing and CRM Executives. Aside from excellent training and development opportunities, staff are also rewarded with benefits such as retail and childcare vouchers. If that’s not enough, we have three words for you: Heavily. Discounted. Holidays.
So if you wish you were there, don’t just apply for it, Thomas Cook it. ‘let’s go’…
Locations: Throughout the UK.
