New job board launched focusing on the retail sector

Retailchoice.com, the recently launched retail job board is already making headway in the market with over 9,500 live job postings from over 120 recruiters and consultants; this figure is already 100% more job postings than their nearest competitor are quoting. These vacancies range from all areas of retail operations, wholesale, technical and design through to head office and cover employers ranging from single boutique shops through to the largest retailers such as the Arcadia Group and Tesco.

Produced by The Potential Job Board Company (PJBC), the company who has successfully launched Totaljobs.com, CWJobs.co.uk and caterer.com in recent years, Retailchoice.com is poised to take the UK retail recruitment market by storm.

Online applications are rising by an average of 17% a day, jobseekers registering their cv profiles and signing up to receive jobs by email are growing at over 74% a day and the marketing has hardly begun. A full marketing strategy using on and off-line campaigns above and below the line is in the first stages of its roll-out. Only one month after the launch Retailchoice.com is already one of the top 3 UK retail job boards according to Hitwise, the independent market size tracking website

The site was launched after more than 6 months intense research of the retail job market with recruiters and consultants as well as jobseekers, and the results speak for themselves. One client recently said: ìThis is the best ever response the company has ever had from any job boardî, another said: ìvery easy to useî. Recent usability confirms this with comments ranging from: ìfresh, corporate and easy to useî to ìmore specific search then the other job boardsî

Website director, John salt says: ìRetailchoice.com is an exciting venture for us, it is the most consumer focused job board we have developed and it needs to be, with the retail market being heavily brand focused. Initial results show we have been right with our positioning of this product, and I am confident we will continue to grow and develop this new business and meet our vision of becoming the dominant company providing a world- class recruitment matching service, via the internet, for retail professionals in the UK.î
