Jobsite celebrates award for NHS Jobs

Jobsite today celebrates with NHS Employers the prestigious Personnel Today Award for NHS Jobs (www.jobs.nhs.uk). NHS Employers won the 'Excellence in HR through Technology' award for the way in which NHS Jobs has delivered significant benefits to HR teams in the NHS and to the NHS as a whole in England and Wales.

The independently judged awards recognise and reward teams who are making an impact with their HR policies and delivering great financial benefits for their organisations across the UK. The NHS Jobs site was chosen for its strong commercial focus, the close involvement of key stakeholders and a commitment to ongoing service improvements. The award recognises the scale of benefits to the NHS provided by NHS Jobs, which achieves savings of 40m per year, and praised the team involved for an excellent awareness of how technology can be used to drive effective and far-reaching transformational changes in HR.

Jobsite, in partnership with Methods Consulting, provides the market leading recruitment service to NHS Employers for the NHS in England and Wales. The service includes a fully managed, dedicated online recruitment website with helpdesk. It provides the online tools to support all recruitment activities from job advertising to applicant selection and communications. NHS Jobs currently advertises more than 240,000 vacancies and receives more than 4million applications per year.

Keith Potts, Jobsite CEO, comments, ìThe staff who work within the NHS are key to the level of service and success of the service within their organisations. Jobsite are proud to support NHS Employers with the technology and service that have won this prestigious award and allows the millions of applications to be processed for the NHS each year. We acknowledge and thank the contributions of NHS Employers and the

Department of Health to the success of the service and look forward to further successes in running this award winning website.î
