Thanks a lot

Not sure about the Jobs API but you can call
Display.getDefault().syncExec(Runnable). But there are some issues with
this approach so read the docs carefully.

By definition a job runs in the thread that executes it. Do you mean
you want to run a job in the same thread that *schedules* it? There is
no way to do this, other than refactoring the body of the job's run()
method into a separate public method, and then calling that method
instead of calling schedule().
