I don't think there is any law that says jobs in Private companies must be advertised. Found this on an employment law website.
There is no general duty on an employer to advertise job vacancies. The EAT has ruled that neither the Sex nor the Race Discrimination legislation impose a specific duty to advertise a post although a failure to advertise might be taken into account in appropriate cases (see Coker & Osamor v The Lord Chancellor, Lord Irvine CA 2001 ICR 507, EAT, later confirmed by the Court of Appeal).
Maybe the board have lined up Roy Keane as player/manager for the end of the season
Very informative! :shock:
