work for jam recruitment

Hello future

MAJ

Why do CVs ask what you’ve done, rather than what you want to do?

Why do job specs list mandatories instead of opportunities?

Why do so many see vacancies as a problem to solve, rather than a chance to grow?

And why do we concentrate on what’s happened, when the truly exciting stuff is what’s yet to come?

At JAM we think tomorrow is a great place to be. It’s rewarding, inspiring and bursting with opportunity.

So stop thinking in the past and join us in making a better tomorrow.

03 What we do

This philosophy has helped us become one of the most innovative and successful recruitment companies in the UK and be Highly Commended in the ‘Best Company to Work For’ category at the IRP Awards.

Right now we turn over £15 million and help someone find a job every 2 hours. We’ve worked with over 5,000 companies and have over 3.8 million candidates in our network.

But enough about the past. It’s our future that’s really exciting. Things move fast around here and we’re investing heavily in training, marketing and new technology to build a powerful brand and triple our turnover in the next 3 years.

JAM makes the most of tomorrow - for candidates, clients and consultants. By constantly looking forward we help people love their jobs, improve their lives and build better businesses.

05 What we want to achieve

We’re going to equip our consultants with the best Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tools available, develop the most sophisticated analytics in the industry and continue to develop our training and development programme so we’re seen as a university of professional recruitment.

Key milestones over the next three years:

Increase turnover from £15m to £45m

Increase our staff from 110 to 190

Increase our operating profit from £2.8m to £21.1m

And to make all this happen, we’re going to need the best talent in the industry.

The next few years are when things get really interesting. We’re investing heavily in technology, training and marketing to turn JAM into the most talked-about recruitment company in the country.

06 How we’re going to make a better tomorrow

How are we going to make sure we deliver a better future for all our candidates and clients?

We’ve had a long, hard think about it and have boiled it down to 3 simple things. Over the next few years, these will form the cornerstones of our brand:

Better people

Quicker processes

Smarter thinking

07

We also need to understand our clients’ business aspirations, so we know what they want to achieve and the sort of people they need to achieve it.

And to do all that, we need to develop the best people in the business.

How we’re going to deliver “Better people”:

• Recruit and train the best consultants in the country to find the best candidates for our clients

• Develop cutting-edge analytics to help us understand our candidates more effectively

• Monitor the service our customers receive through our dedicated Customer Services department

• Work tirelessly to understand our clients’ businesses, so we help them build stronger companies

07 Brand cornerstone: Better people

Our role is to find the best people for the best jobs. We need to look beyond the CV and understand every candidates’ hopes and ambitions.

08

07 Brand cornerstone: Quicker processes

This enables our consultants to spend more time doing the important things; getting to know candidates better and talking to clients to understand their businesses so we can deliver quicker results and a great customer experience.

We truly believe that our approach will help to redefine best-in-class recruitment.

How we’re going to deliver “Quicker processes”:

• CRM technology (Bullhorn) that helps us match clients and candidates to jobs faster

• Upgrade our client portal with video technology for more insightful profiling

• Utilise our innovative management information systems to help us identify new opportunities in real time.

New processes have been introduced and investment made into technology to speed up the recruitment process.

09

07 Brand cornerstone: Smarter thinking

Because when we say we’re specialists, we mean it.

By providing ongoing training and access to invaluable industry resources we make sure all our consultants have an in-depth understanding of the sectors in which their clients operate and the professions they recruit for.

That way we can think sharper and look further ahead, providing consultancy and advice that will play a key role in our clients’ growth. So vacancies aren’t just seen as roles to fill, they’re viewed as opportunities for growth, personal and professional.

How we’re going to deliver “Smarter thinking”:

• Invest and develop our training programme

• Provide the opportunity to study towards a professional qualification.

• Access to our in house Marketing and Research departments.

08 The sort of people we are

We are also developing a strong new culture within the business which shakes off certain aspects of the past and remains steadfastly focused on the future.

So if you’re a JAM sort of person you’ll have certain qualities hot-wired into your DNA. You’ll be:

Forward looking

Dynamic and innovative
