Case Study: Wessex Education Shared Services reduces recruitment costs and time-to-hire with Webrecruit

How Webrecruit helped the educational organisation streamline its processes and reduce its recruitment spend

Wessex Education Shared Services (WESS), an educational shared service organization, faced the challenge of recruiting for a wide range of specialist roles while minimizing costs and contending with a national skills shortage. To achieve greater value and attract candidates with specific skill sets, they partnered with Webrecruit for its online recruitment advertising service.

Webrecruit provided a cost-effective solution by recommending targeted job boards and providing dedicated account management. This partnership helped WESS streamline its recruitment process and significantly reduce its advertising spend. The results were substantial, with Webrecruit helping to fill nearly 500 vacancies since 2014 while also reducing the organization's time-to-hire.
