December sees the launch of FEcareers.co.uk, a specialist online job board developed in conjunction with Chimeara, one of the UKís leading Further Education recruitment companies. The company is based at Container City, an innovative new development in Docklands.

FEcareers.co.uk was launched in response to a need for a central source of Further Education careers and candidates. FEcareers.co.uk covers the entire Further Education sector and has a wide range of roles from Lecturer to Verifier to Senior Management positions. The job board is specifically tailored to the needs of Further Education employers and has been able to attract qualified and experienced candidates from both in and out of the Further Education sector.

So far, FEcareers.co.uk can boast clients such as Protocol National, Braintree College, Chimeara Recruitment, Sir George Monoux College, Cahro Limited and Matchtech Group.

The site has already received over 500,000 hits, a figure that looks set to rise as the FEcareers team works with colleges, training providers and Further Education specialists to promote the site. There has already been a tremendous response from candidates who appreciate the highly targeted nature of the site.

Gavin OíMeara, Director of Chimeara Recruitment said: ìFEcareers.co.uk is an exciting development for the Further Education sector! For both candidates and clients within FE and those looking to break into this sector, it provides a remarkable range of positions across the UK. FEcareers.co.uk will be integral to our online marketing.î

Simon Edwards, a job hunter in London said: ìI can usually never find the roles in Further Education that Iím looking for in all in one place. I have to hunt through several different generic job boards and I still donít find anything useful. FEcareers.co.uk has been more than helpful.î
