Heysham, United Kingdom, May 02, 2009 --(PR.com)-- JobsGroup.net, operator of JustEngineers.net and JustConstruction.net, is today celebrating their win of Best Job Board at the prestigious Recruiter Awards for Excellence.

The award win follows the re-launch of all JobsGroup.net sites in December 2008, which resulted in an unprecedented 160% increase in the number of applications per vacancy (APV), a 153% increase in monthly CV registrations and a 19% increase in time spent on the sites. It is the second time in four years that JobsGroup.net has won the award, which is judged in terms of quality of service, innovation and profitability.

Mark Hepworth, Managing Director of JobsGroup.net, comments, “We put a huge amount of effort into re-launching our sites onto a new platform at the end of last year so that they could benefit from the latest technology. We also made improvements across the board, from design and functionality through to usability and reporting. Every month we add additional enhancements to give our recruiters greater control. We’ve also grown our team to ensure we continue to deliver an outstanding service to our clients through a new regional account management team, who provide training and guidance whenever it’s needed.

“It all means we can help clients find relevant candidates and fill their vacancies faster, and get a superb return on investment. I’m thrilled the team has been recognised by the Recruiter Awards panel of judges for all their hard work.”
