I doubt this is a bug in EXECUTE; if you think it is, try to post a
self-contained test case. For example, this similar example works
fine:

CREATE TABLE foo (a int, b int);
CREATE TABLE job_2011_11 (c int, d int);

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION job_insert_trigger()
RETURNS TRIGGER AS
$BODY$
DECLARE
currentTableName character varying := 'job_' || '2011_11';
BEGIN
EXECUTE 'INSERT INTO '|| currentTableName || ' values ' || (NEW.*);
RETURN NULL;
END;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE plpgsql VOLATILE
COST 100;

CREATE TRIGGER job_insert_trg BEFORE INSERT ON foo
FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE job_insert_trigger();
INSERT INTO foo (a, b) VALUES (1, 2);
