how can i save the data in a form to a particular job ref rather than just
saving it to the form?
 
Access saves data in tables, not in forms.

Is your form "bound" to a table or a query?

Um?

You can't save data to any Form. A Form does not store data; it's just
a tool, a window that allows you to view and edit data stored in a
Table. Data is stored in Tables, and only in Tables.

Normally you would use a Form bound to your table; navigate the form
to display the record that you want to edit, and just edit it there.
You can put a Combo Box on the form using the Wizard - choose the
option "Use this combo to find a record", and have it look up the Job
Ref.
