The Simply Jobs Group has just celebrated their 5th Birthday!

Simply Sales & Marketing Jobs was launched 5 years ago by Ian Partington, as a new job board dedicated purely to bringing together sales and marketing professionals and employers, and proved to be the benchmark in comprehensive jobs coverage and customer service.

Over the past 5 years, the company, now known as The Simply Jobs Group has grown from a single office start-up to the market leader for niche job advertising in the UK operating job boards across 13 niche industry sectors including Sales, Marketing, HR & Law.

To date, The Simply Group, now under the ownership of Friday-Ad, the largest independent publisher in the UK, have advertised over 739,000 jobs and currently attract over 600,000 jobseekers per month across their 13 niche job boards. The company has continued its sustained growth and currently employs over 30 experienced recruitment professionals to ensure that the best candidates continue to be matched with the best jobs.

Ian Partington, now Group Managing Director comments, “The last 5 years have gone by in a blur but I am extremely pleased with the way the business has progressed in this time. The market has changed dramatically since 2004 but we have managed to keep pace with these changes or in some cases stayed ahead.”

The Simply Jobs Group is experiencing record traffic levels in 2009, a point that is clearly illustrated as the number of jobs advertised is up an average of 18% Year -On-Year across all of their 13 niche job boards. Add to this, candidate numbers on the sites are also up an impressive 55% over the same period, proving that the Group is continuing to provide their clients with experienced, industry specific candidates contrary to the economic downturn.

The Simply Jobs Group is embracing the new set of challenges that face the online recruitment industry in 2009.

Managing Director Ian Partington looks forward to a change in the way that many businesses rethink the way they recruit new members of staff, opting to steer away from traditional methods in favour of using online media stating, “It is expected that companies looking to save on costs will look at a better return on investment and reduce costs of recruiting by using online job boards as apposed to print or using recruitment agencies.”

“Similarly, recruitment agencies, also looking to save costs will look towards reducing the number of job boards that they use and focus more on niche sites such as Simply Marketing Jobs, Simply Media Sales Jobs, Simply New Media Jobs or Simply Sales Jobs as they look for more effective ways to attract the most relevant candidates.”

“This rationalised approach from the Recruitment Agencies will lead to job boards working smarter in order to provide a good response at the right price and those who invest in new technology and products will stay ahead.”

“Naturally there will be some consolidation of the market place with fewer new entrants expected as well as some smaller niche sites, especially those which operate within markets that have been affected by the credit crunch, disappearing from the market.”

“Looking forward to the next few months, we will look forward to working with SME’s who may not have previously considered advertising their vacancies on niche jobsites and will also look to tailor packages across our 13 niche jobsites.”
