The job board was losing candidates: hard to search, harder to apply.
We rebuilt the Tinies job board. Candidates search by town, salary or map, apply once with their CV attached, and every application lands straight in the branch's ATS.
The old site did not record its numbers. This one reports them weekly, per vacancy.
400+
vacancies live on the board at any one time
50+
candidate submissions through the site every week
Zero
board wipe-outs, a failed sync now flags the vacancy instead
You will know this one
“Candidates open the jobs page, try one search, and never come back.”
“The application form is so long that people give up halfway through.”
“The sync failed overnight and the whole job board was empty by morning.”
Tinies is a childcare recruiter with branches across England and Scotland, each running its jobs and applicants through an ATS. The old board made searching hard and applying harder, and a failed sync could silently empty it.
What we built
One job board wired into the branches' ATS. Jobs flow out automatically, applications flow back in, and the consultants stay in the tool they already use.
-
Search that finds the job
Town, city or area, salary and hourly rate filters, and a live map view. The jobs are findable however someone looks for them.
-
Built for conversion
One short application with the CV attached. Candidates finish the form instead of giving up halfway.
-
Wired into the ATS
Jobs flow out of the branches' ATS automatically and applications flow straight back in. Consultants never leave the tool they already use.
-
Reliable and visible
A failed sync flags the vacancy instead of wiping the board, and a weekly email reports live jobs and submission rates.

“I wanted a credible tech partner focused on driving efficiencies and simplifying the user journey. Joe and his team helped us plan a simplified structure and unpick the nuances of our legacy system. The feedback since going live has been phenomenal, and the whole process has been seamless from start to finish.”
Is your job board costing you candidates?
If applying takes ten minutes and the CVs arrive by email, candidates are giving up before you ever see them. Thirty minutes. You walk me through how it runs now, and I tell you where the drop-offs are and whether software is the right fix.
