Case Study: Fowler Welch centralises recruitment with Webrecruit ATS

How Webrecruit ATS helped to centralise the recruitment process of one of the UK’s leading supply chain businesses

Fowler Welch, a UK supply chain business for food producers and supermarkets, needed to centralize its recruitment process to efficiently manage a high volume of applications for roles like warehouse staff and drivers. The challenge, as explained by Recruitment and Retention Advisor Tom Walbank, was to gain control over incoming applications. To solve this, the company turned to vendor Webrecruit and implemented its Applicant Tracking System (ATS).

The solution, Webrecruit ATS, was chosen for its user-friendliness and transparency. Following its implementation, Fowler Welch dramatically cut administration time, created a centralized portal for all applications across its multiple depots, and improved the candidate experience with automated communications. The vendor's system provided valuable reporting flexibility and was considered a complete success.
