Matchtech's new website goes live

Bringing Matchtech’s people-first approach online with a faster, smarter, more dynamic recruitment website

Matchtech’s new website brings their people-powered approach to life, with a sharper experience for both candidates and clients, while also making the site work harder as a growth engine.

A few highlights from the project…

• Smarter client lead generation: A new custom module lets clients choose the services, sectors, and skills they need. The site then responds dynamically with relevant content and captures enquiries for the Matchtech team to follow up on.
• A stronger candidate experience using Bullhorn Automation: Our Bullhorn integration uses the job ID and semantic matching to automatically send relevant roles to candidates, enabling personalised engagement while reducing admin time.
• Cleaner, more intuitive navigation: The new ‘Mega Nav’ makes it much easier for candidates and clients to quickly find the content that matters most.

"...we’ve actually seen a big increase in applications and traffic within the first few weeks of it being live."

With the site already showing strong early performance, we spoke with the Matchtech team about what’s working, what’s new, and what the build was like behind the scenes.

How was the experience working with Venn as part of your new site?

"The experience working with Venn as part of our new site was refreshing. As Venn specialise in recruitment, we didn’t have to explain the complexities of candidate applications and job posting as these were already set up out of the box and ready to go. They understood us as a customer and were able to translate our brief and new brand into a wonderful looking new site."

How does the new site reflect the experience you want clients / candidates to have?

"The new site is a refreshing take on what can be quite a stale looking industry as far as technological progression is concerned. Venn have taken some great functionality used in different industries (such as the commute search) and made it work for job searching, making it so much easier to find relevant jobs. The microsite functionality also allows us to show off our clients and enhance their employer brand – whilst getting the benefits of a website built specially for recruitment."

Are there any early results / wins you've had since from the new site following go live?

"We were anticipating a drop in applications from launch as search engines like Google get to grips with our new site. However, amazingly we’ve actually seen a big increase in applications and traffic within the first few weeks of it being live."

How does the additional development work and integration with Bullhorn Automations benefit you as a business?

"The custom development work to integrate with Bullhorn Automations makes marketing jobs so much easier. Allowing us to match relevant candidates to live jobs on our website and send candidates timely emails about jobs which match their skills."

Huge thanks to the Matchtech team for the collaboration – it’s always a privilege to bring ideas like this to life.
