Haymarket teams up with people4business to offer price transparent recruitment site to charities
ThirdSector partners with people4business to develop an online service, which lets freelance professionals offer their skills to charities at discounted rates
BRIGHTON, UK, July 05, 2009 /Employment - Careers PR News/ -- Haymarket, one of the world's most reputable publishing companies has teamed up with people4business, the online recruitment marketplace, to utilise its unique service connecting "Sellers" of skills (freelancers, contractors and consultants) with "Buyers" (businesses or organisations). Workers seeking temporary or contract employment within the third sector can market themselves to over 3,000 Buyers already registered with the site. people4business is the only online marketplace offering 100 per cent price transparency and their people4charity site also provides discounted hourly rates for charities.
The website has been designed to appeal to the needs of the readers of one of Haymarket's key publications, ThirdSector. The site provides thousands of recruiters (Buyers) and employment candidates (Sellers) a cost-effective way to recruit temporary and contract professionals. Charity and not-for-profit organisations can search for, and set-up contracts with, freelance professionals identifying not only those with the skills they require but also choosing from the 9,000 professionals currently offering discounts of between 5% and 90% to charities from their normal hourly rates.
Simon Devitt, Online Publishing Director, Haymarket comments: "In tough economic times, the income of third sector organisations has been just as affected as the revenue of many businesses, reflecting the impact of the recession on both industry and individuals. With people4charity we can offer complete price transparency and significant rate reductions, coupled with people4's industry-beating margin of 10%.
The site developed for us combines sophisticated electronic back-office facilities with human customer services to manage the contracts, invoices and timesheets that result from each transaction."
Duncan Taylor, Managing Director, people4business comments: "As with most businesses and organisations, lower costs and complete price transparency are not only desirable, but vital. In contrast to traditional recruitment agencies, the hourly rates listed on our site is all the Buyer pays, is controlled by the Seller and is inclusive of our 10% commission - for which we manage all the contracts, timesheets, invoicing and payments. We are pleased to have developed a unique marketplace and we are delighted to be able to make this available to charities through our partnership with Haymarket and ThirdSector magazine."
