ESPO 3A_24 Advertising Solutions for public sector recruitment
CJA is a supplier on the ESPO 3A_24 Advertising Solutions framework (Lot 1), giving public sector, education and NHS organisations a fast, compliant route to recruitment advertising, employer marketing strategy and careers site development, without running a full tender process.
Public money deserves a defensible recruitment marketing decision
Every recruitment advertising pound spent by a public sector organisation has to be accountable, transparent and demonstrably good value, not just effective. Procuring through a pre-tendered framework means that case has already been made for you.
See what’s covered
↓Recruitment advertising, careers sites and employer marketing strategy, in one service
Our service goes beyond media placement, covering every stage of the recruitment marketing process:
Media planning and buying
Job boards, social media, programmatic, search and display, print, out of home and radio, planned around role type, audience and budget.
Employer marketing strategy
EVP development and positioning that stands up across every talent market you compete in, not just the roles you’re actively advertising.
Careers sites and microsites
Careers site design and campaign-specific microsites, built to improve candidate journey and conversion rather than exist as a static page.
Recruitment outsourcing
Embed our RPO expertise directly into your resourcing function for ongoing volume or hard-to-fill hiring.
