Recruitment & retentionOnline recruitment

Clearly Jobs launched by leading online recruitment entrepreneurs

by Personnel Today 20 May 2008
by Personnel Today 20 May 2008

Two leading online recruitment professionals with very successful track records have formed Clearly Jobs Limited with the aim of launching a string of niche job boards.

Jon Grocott, founder and previously owner of secsinthecity has joined forces with Rob Schofield, MD of GAAPweb for 3 ½ years until it was sold to Trinity Mirror in 2005.

They have teamed up with online marketing specialists Dynamica Web Design to launch ClearlySecretarialJobs.co.uk and TopFinancialJobs.com. 

Clearly Jobs aims to feature the best office support, administration, PA and secretarial jobs in London and throughout the UK and Top Financial Jobs will publish jobs from recruiters and employers across all financial sectors.

Jon Grocott commented:

“I am hugely excited about returning to online recruitment. This is an industry for which I have a driving passion and commitment and I look forward to renewing contact with many old friends and challenging the current market leaders in the industries we are targeting. We have identified a number of sectors where we feel there is room for well optimised service driven specialist sites, not least the two sectors in which we have most experience.”

Rob Schofield added:

“I am confident that with the correct balance of service and value we can provide a significant long term proposition for recruiters and advertisers. We both know what it takes to build successful job boards from the point of view of candidates and advertisers and as an independent organisation with the flexibility to act quickly and intelligently we are relishing this opportunity to work once more in niche online recruitment.”
