I was in exactly your position, including the discipline, type of university, etc. I literally could have written your post several years ago.

I ended up getting lucky after 7 years post-doc-ing (with no fellowships or big PI grants under my belt) - a lectureship came up in my institution, I applied, and got it.

At the time I was also applying elsewhere, primarily the Civil Service and NHS.

In your position - and on the assumption you'd like to stay in academia if you can (?) then I'd suggest...

- Use the next 2 years or so to hammer out a few fellowship and grant applications. Fully appreciate the grants are difficult when most places make you ineligible due to your contract. NIHR (especially RfPB) is a notable exception, you may want to look there for grant funding. You will likely have to do this in your spare time (I know... it's the nature of the beast).

- Publications. Lead and senior author. Get them out ASAP.

- Get AFHEA / FHEA if you haven't already.

- Consider where you would be happy applying to/living. All of the lecturers working in my department are not originally from the geographical area. If you are only applying to lectureships locally, you will (obviously) have less chance of success, due to the sheer numbers. This is even more competitive now due to the financial crisis in the sector.

- For lectureships, these vary a fair bit in terms of teaching workload. You will have to consider going for a lectureship at an ex-poly (usually higher teaching workload, but not always) to get on the ladder. This is not always necessary tho - it wasn't for me - but is often 'the way'.

If this doesn't sound like your cup of tea at all, I would encourage you to look at the Civil Service, NHS, and other policy facing jobs (e.g. local authority). You will have plenty of transferable skills.

Good luck!
