We have several directorates (departments) at Companies House, and each one focuses on a different area of the business. The careers hub provides more detail on the careers and roles available in each directorate, as well as helping you find where your skills best fit.

    I'm a huge supporter of these blogs and recommend them to colleagues as a great way to keep track of developments at this time of significant change. I therefore do not believe they should be used to advertise jobs; it is a poor conflation of your role as Registrar with your organisational interests.

      How else would jobs be advertised? I would go a step further and suggest jobs are advertised by Companies House directly instead of going through the Civil Service to expedite the review process.
