eQuest and TheLadders.co.uk Partner to Help Companies Promote Job Openings Across the UK


LONDON--(Marketwire - Oct 12, 2011) - TheLadders.co.uk, the leading recruitment solution for professional talent (£50K+), and eQuest, the leading international job distributor for the Global Fortune 500, have teamed up to offer joint customers free job posting distribution through eQuest's job posting gateway.

In a recent Harris Interactive survey, it was reported that nearly half a million individuals in the US found TheLadders.com 'helpful' or 'extremely helpful' in landing their most recent positions. And, despite the economic downturn, of 12 percent of people who earn $100K+ and changed jobs in 2010, 43 percent of these job seekers used TheLadders.com during their search whilst 71 percent found the site to be beneficial in their job search.

As part of TheLadders' global expansion, TheLadders.co.uk was launched at the start of 2008 and has fast become the UK's leading mid-senior management career services website. With this latest partnership with eQuest, it is expected that the UK site will replicate the same sort of success as seen by its parent company.

"Our unique relationship with eQuest provides all eQuest customers with £50K+ open positions in the UK easy access to posting jobs on TheLadders.co.uk," said Derek Pilcher, MD. "Throughout the term of our special arrangement all delivery fees by eQuest will be waived for jobs posted to TheLadders."

eQuest posted more than One Quarter Billion job deliveries in the last 12 months and remain the preferred job distribution company by the majority of the world's Applicant Tracking Systems and ERPs.

"As eQuest continues its expansion in Europe, the formation of these types of partnerships is an extension of our commitment to providing our customers around the world with low-cost job delivery services," said Mike Pauletich, EVP of Worldwide Alliances and Customer Success, for eQuest. "We look forward to working with the TheLadders in the UK along with the addition of many new clients."
