Recruitment website Yourfoodjob.com has joined forces with Market Intelligence, the publisher behind FPJ and Eurofruit, to create an online marketplace for fresh produce recruitment.

The partners hope to establish a platform for employers – large and small – to find the ideal candidates from around the globe.

“We are thrilled to welcome Market Intelligence onboard,” said Yourfoodjob.com’s Tony Andrews.

“We believe this partnership creates an opportunity that has not been seen by the industry before: the chance for global sourcing and recruitment of the top international candidates all from one easy-to-use platform.”

The benefit of partnering with Market Intelligence is that Yourfoodjob.com can now take on a larger international focus, incorporating a wider array of jobs from the fresh fruit and vegetable sector.

Market Intelligence’s managing director, Chris White, welcomed the move.

“Our customers have been asking us to develop an online solution for people looking for careers in our sector,” he explained. “It’s an exciting development for us and our customers.”

Established in 2006, Yourfoodjob.com is the UK’s market-leading recruitment site for the food and beverage sector. Over 55,000 industry professionals – from graduates to board members – visit the website every month.
