A job was the task an individual did on a daily basis.

The Eleventh Doctor claimed that he would be brilliant at having a job. (TV: The Day of the Doctor) He had earlier, briefly, held a job at Sanderson & Grainger, a department store in Colchester. Though he claimed he did so to "live in the moment", he was actually investigating Cyber-activity which seemed to be localised around his new workplace. (TV: Closing Time) He also considered his duties as UNIT's scientific advisor to be his job, though Clara Oswald doubted that he could ever hold a job. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

In 2008, Tish Jones got a PR job at Lazarus Laboratories, (TV: The Lazarus Experiment) which was secretly arranged by the Saxon Master whilst disguised the human "Harold Saxon". Later, having been "phoned up" "out of the blue", Tish Jones got a job at 10 Downing Street on "Mr Saxon's" first day as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. (TV: The Sound of Drums)
