Timesheet calculations

I have a worksheet set up as a monthly record of hours worked:
Example
Date Job No. Hours worked
01/02 2167 4
2000 2.5
2412 1.5
(total C1:C3) 8

This runs throughout the month; each day is calculated and the summary of
the hours worked appears at the end, using (9,C4:Cn), e.g 160.

On the next page of the same worksheet, I need the total of hours worked
during the month for each job, e.g:

Job No. Hours
2000 22
2167 14
2412 2
etc ...
Total .....160

Is there a way to calculate/add up all the hours worked during the month for
each job to enter on Page 2 rather than, as I do now, going through each day
and writing down each job and the hours worked on it.

SUMIF will be one way ..
Assume your source data as posted in Sheet1,
where col B = job numbers, col C = hours worked
Use a new/another sheet for the summary
In this new/other sheet,
With job numbers (eg: 2167, 2000, etc) running in A2 down,
put in B2: =SUMIF(Sheet1!B:B,A2,Sheet1!C:C)
Copy down to return total hours worked for the corresponding job numbers
voila? hit the YES below

Thanks, Max. That works well.

However, the days of the month are actually over 4 blocks on an A4 sheet:

DAY JOB NO. HRS | DAY JOB NO. HRS | DAY JOB NO. HRS |DAYJOB NO. HRS

The ranges I need included in Sheet 1 are, therefore, B:B F:F J:J N:N
for the Job numbers and C:C G:G K:K O:O for the hours worked.

I have been trying, without success, to write a formula for this in B2 of
the new sheet.

Can you help, please?

You can keep it simple, use SUM(SUMIF1,...,SUMIF4)
eg in B2, all in one cell:
=SUM(SUMIF(Sheet1!B:B,A2,Sheet1!C:C),
SUMIF(Sheet1!F:F,A2,Sheet1!G:K),
SUMIF(Sheet1!J:J,A2,Sheet1!K:K),
SUMIF(Sheet1!N:N,A2,Sheet1!O:O))
Above will continue to work well even for irregular source data set-ups or
should new cols ever be inserted which would disrupt current set-ups. Wave
your success?, hit the YES below

Errata, typo corrected, it should be:
=SUM(SUMIF(Sheet1!B:B,A2,Sheet1!C:C),
SUMIF(Sheet1!F:F,A2,Sheet1!G:G),
SUMIF(Sheet1!J:J,A2,Sheet1!K:K),
SUMIF(Sheet1!N:N,A2,Sheet1!O:O))
