I WOULD CERTAINLY ENJOY THIS ROLE, BUT HERE'S WHAT I'D ADD....

As an administrative and communications role, this Hays-listed job would be ideal for learning the ropes alongside senior management. But, as a real communications outlet, I would put aside the diary to make the following point to senior leaders:

You need to understand people are hurting out there. 27% unemployment in Spain is not only unacceptable, it's dangerous. We may not have experienced our Reichstag moment, but that sort of figure portends very dark times ahead if our leaders do not take note. With the benefit of hindsight, there are absolutely no excuses for a re-run of past miseries. Inaction is absolutely inexcusable.

Put people back to work. And figure out a way to be sustainable. History, we should know, does not discriminate in our favour. We have to get the game back on track, before it runs entirely off the tracks with all the destruction - of social and human capital, and human potential - that comprehends.

And no PR can massage that message -

This time around, there are no excuses...
