Jobs group Peace gives online image a makeover

Peace Recruitment, the construction jobs specialist, has overhauled its online presence by introducing audio job adverts and Tripadvisor-style reviews for its consultants.

The Edinburgh-based firm said the shake-up of its technology, carried out by digital partner Bold Identities, was aimed at boosting customer service and passing control over the recruitment process to candidates and employers.

Managing director Chris Peace, who founded the recruiter in 2009, said: “I have always said to my team ‘if you get the service right the sales will look after themselves’.

“I hope I am proved correct, as if we do not make the grade there will be nowhere to hide as the results are real-time and published on our new website automatically. The consultants in the office seem to be up for the challenge.”

Along with the Tripadvisor-inspired feedback system for its 18 consultants, Peace has launched audio-based adverts that allow candidates to listen to available positions.
