Career Achievements Taken commercial digital marketing expertise and applied it to a recruitment environment
at RBS.
Project managed the build and implementation of the new RBS recruitment digital marketing strategy including;- launch of a new state of the art careers website with intuitive search functionality designed to match
visitor profile and site behaviour to available vacancies. The site is currently generating over 200,000 unique visits and over 16K registrations and applications per month.
Created a candidate talent pool of over 500K by integrating existing ATS system with a recruiter talent filter and Unica CRM System. This digital integration enables RBS to recycle candidates and consider them for more than one job role. It also facilitates a CRM programme designed to keep candidates warm until a job becomes available through regular job alert e-mails and Enewsletters.The talent pool will encourage direct hiring which will reduce annual hiring spend with external job agencies (£40M in 2010).
Social Media job platform - designed to test the potential for social media as a recruitment tool. Test pages set up on LinkedIn, Face Book, You Tube and Twitter to test social media as a candidate attraction and engagement tool. The results remain inconclusive at present.
Global Careers Website• Site behaves very much like a dating site – it can either match for you or help you do the matching yourself
•Candidates can build a personal profile, search, save, collect and compare job information
• Site has intuitive job search functionality. It utilises Amazon style tools to provide more relevant job recommendations and matches
• Linked In style richer data capture – the candidate provides as much info as they choose
• CV upload – become a part of the RBS candidate database without applying for a role straight away
