Exeter is not as some people may think a very big city in terms of trade and commerce.
The biggest thing in recent years was the relocation of the Met Office to Exeter .This has been mirrored by the relocation of a few smaller companies .Exeter High street and its retailers have felt the down turn unfortunatly this coincided with the launch of the new Princesshay shopping centre.Quite a few of these brand new units are now empty.
Apart from that Exeter has not suffered as badly as many cities largly due to its reliance on many smaller businesses as opposed to one industry and one employer.Exeter does not have the unfilled jobs that it used to have and your best bet would be to approach companies direct ..
Im am infact looking for a weekend drivers mate (heavy work!!) with some easy short run local same day runs during the week ...!!!!:D
