LOOKING TO FILL A VACANCY IN YOUR ORGANISATION?

Tired of paying high rates to media moguls? Take advantage of the latest technology and achieve your objective - cost effectively.

NFP JOBS is sent to job seekers in the non-profit sector. Our no-frills approach places your vacancies in front of potential employees - quickly.

But why NFP JOBS? Why an e-mail newsletter?

1) ELECTRONIC NEWSLETTERS WORK QUICKLY!
Our job advertisements attract rapid response. NFP JOBS is issued on a Friday enabling candidates to package their CV and respond over the weekend. NFP JOBS reduces, significantly, the lead time for replacing staff in key roles within your organisation.

2) ELECTRONIC NEWSLETTERS ARE COST EFFECTIVE.
Up to about 250 words describing your vacancy and your organisation can be yours for only £50 (VAT Exempt for registered charities). Each vacancy is listed separately so we charge just £50 per vacancy. With subscriber numbers on our books now exceeding 5300 (and still growing fast) you get superb value for money.

3) WE HAVE A HIGH QUALITY SUBSCRIBER BASE.
Our subscriber list is made up primarily of people holding management-level positions in non-profits and so your advertising can be highly focused. Compare our package with the rates other publications and media charge.

4) OUR READERS WANT TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR JOB VACANCIES.
- Interested parties have to register to receive the information.
- The newsletter is sent only to those that have requested it. This means that everyone on the mailing list is interested in hearing about your vacancy – be it in fundraising, accounts, administration, IT, membership, event management or general management.
- NFP JOBS reaches your target audience – non-profit management job seekers – precisely and effectively.

5) JOB INFORMATION IS DELIVERED DIRECT TO JOB SEEKERS.
Our readers do not have to search for the information. Internet growth means that web sites and portals are as ubiquitous as postal addresses. Looking for a relevant website on the internet? Do words like needle and haystack come to mind? NFP JOBS delivers relevant information to committed job seekers regularly, concisely and directly - for immediate action!

6) NFP JOBS IS WELL ESTABLISHED
NFP JOBS is now in its eighth year and attracts repeat advertising from organisations such as NDCS, Samaritans, MENCAP and UNICEF. Our marketing programme continues through direct marketing mailings, inserts and exhibition promotions.

To make more of your recruitment budget - make NFP JOBS your first call for quality candidates. Publication Day - Friday. (copy deadline now 1700 Thursday, please - by all means phone 08707 367367 on Friday morning and beg! We'll help if we can).

NFP JOBS – Revolution in Recruitment

SOME TIPS FOR ADVERTISERS USING NFP JOBS

* Our recommendation is to keep it short and simple. Although space is not normally a problem in e-mail newsletters, too much detail can dissuade potential applicants from applying. About 150/200 words is ideal.

* Send copy to us in text-only or Word format – preferably in the body of an e-mail, or as a simple attachment. This enables us to cut and paste straight into the NFP JOBS template.

* Certain key facts make essential reading for jobseekers - job location and closing date for applications (where relevant) are the most serious omissions. Salary indications and interview arrangements can also be helpful.

* Make Monday your closing date for applications.
a) your job is advertised in each Friday edition up to closing
b) some people will respond late - Monday closing gives them free time over the weekend to make that last minute application
c) are you really going to respond to applicants on a Friday?

* Specify how candidates should contact you. Giving out your home phone number (evenings) in the advertisement is asking to be got out of bed after the pubs close!

**********************************************************************************************

SAMPLE TEMPLATE: (for guidance only) The key items to include are:

Organisation Name:
Job Title:
Location:
Salary Indicator:
Closing Date:
Web Address:
E-mail address:

Brief Introduction to Organisation and Objectives
Key Responsibilities of Jobholder
Essential/Desirable Attributes of Jobholder

Applications to: Contact Name/Phone/Fax/Address/E-mail

Interview Dates:
References to Equal Opportunities Policy/Lottery Funding, etc. as appropriate
Charity No: if appropriate

Whilst your e-mail and website address information is optional, we strongly recommend using both. E-mail speeds up the recruitment process significantly and your web address is an effective tool for the dissemination of information about your organisation, its aims and objectives – and can be used to supply more lengthy job descriptions/application forms, etc.

Happy Recruiting!!
