If parent is on click and collect CMS scheme and changes employer, does the CMS get automatically informed?

Have had a few problems with ex telling CMS he had finished a job but not informing them of new one. Things are very acrimonious. We're currently on direct pay but I may have to change it to click and collect if he continues messing around. He's currently on a contract so may change employment soon. I found out about his new job on Linked In and informed the CMS.

So, my question is, if he's on Collect and Pay, is there any mechanism for the tax office to automatically inform the CMS that he has a new job, or do I have to rely on him being honest?

My ex has changed his job for years so he doesn't have to pay for his son

He is supposed to be on collect and pay still but doesn't pay, what the CMS did for me was try to find where he was working whenever he changed jobs and then when they found the twat it took a few months to set up the collect and pay.
I think they would ask the tax office if he was working and run his national insurance number to find out where.
He would just move jobs again then.

If you know where he is working then that will help them be able to set up the collect and pay with the new employer.

Also on collect and pay when they don't pay what they are supposed to it adds up so when they catch the none paying parent some of the arrears will also be taken too.
