If you change jobs, you need to apply for another new work permit, as the original work permit you were issued woould have had the companie's name your working for on (as it did in my case).

I was in a similar situation - got a new job ans had to change my work permit.get a new one. Then afew weeks after my PR came through, I was offered (and accepted) another job (my PR took nearly a year over here - they don't rush it through when you're already here and working so something to note!). I called my case officer but she just said to let her know (as you're supposed to keep them up to date for a few months after PR) who the new employer was once I'd started and she updated my records. If your PR is still going through, I would check with immigration if your new job still qualifies for your category as they can be quite picky. My guess is they'll ask you to send in your new contract and will have to assess the new company/role so will add more time to your PR application time...
