Alex - not all jobs are advertised at government Job Centres. Many do not get advertised at all.
When I last needed someone about a year ago I just 'put the word around'.
A lot of employers I know would not touch a Job Centre.
On the other hand if you are unemployed you have to register there to claim. A fair number of them will go on to be self-employed, are 'resting' actors or between seasonal occupations. The bare statistics do not give the full picture, far from it.
Incidentally a 68 year old man I know was made redundant recently, he had quite a high powered job, but within days found new work as a taxi driver. It can be done.
