StepStone has seen substantial organic growth in its Norwegian online recruitment business and believes that it is increasing market share. Online revenue from Norway in Q4 2007 was over 75% higher than Q4 2006.
Per-Thomas Bøe, the manager of Statsjobb, will remain with the business and take on the role of sales manager - public sector, for StepStone Online. The addition of Statsjobb increases the size of StepStone’s Norwegian operation to over 50 staff.
Statsjobb’s job boards in Norway, Sweden and Denmark will be hosted on StepStone’s technical platform and accessible from StepStone’s job boards in all three countries.
Customers of Statsjobb will benefit from StepStone’s traffic and users. Their listings will now be accessible via StepStone’s job boards in Norway, Sweden and Denmark and also via StepStone’s partners in Norway including Hegnar.no, Tinde.no and IDG.no.
Statsjobb’s customers will also now have greater access to StepStone’s complete suite of products and services for e-recruitment and talent management
“I’m proud to announce that Statsjobb AS now is a part of StepStone, Europe’s leading e-recruitment company, and we believe the access to StepStone’s product portfolio, knowledge and organization will be of enormous benefit to our existing customers,” Per-Thomas Bøe, manager of Statsjobb, said.
“The acquisition of Webjobb AS and the Statsjobb brands add considerable strength and depth to StepStone’s public sector coverage in Scandinavia and in particular, Norway. Statsjobb’s enviable customer portfolio in the public sector, competent staff, significant market share and cost and revenue synergies are a perfect fit for StepStone and positions the company well for further growth in the region,” StepStone CEO, Colin Tenwick, said.
