With thousands of new jobs every week, Jobs North is the perfect one-stop shop for those on the lookout for a new career in the Highlands and Moray – and those businesses looking to fill their vacancies.
Each month roughly 30,000 vacancies are advertised on the site, which covers every corner of the Highlands and Moray – as well as other places in Scotland and even the rest of the UK.
Stand out from the crowd
With so many jobs being advertised, it's important to make sure you stand out from the crowd.
And that is where the website's paid job adverts come in – with those businesses who took this option generating more than 56 million impressions between them this year.
Hot Jobs is a selection of roles from leading employers which are given a prominent position on the home page – and are also regularly updated giving you a great window onto what's fresh and available where you are.
Packages to suit your job recruitment needs
There are also a range of bundles to choose from when advertising your post – ensuring that your search for the ideal candidate is tailor-made to suit your business' needs.
These start at the "standard bundle", which includes a 14-day job listing and applications straight into your inbox.
Higher levels include "standard premium" which doubles the length of time your job is visible on site to 28 days and includes a presence on the home page as a "Hot Job".
Opt for the "premium bundle" and you'll enjoy all of those benefits plus a boosted listed that puts you at the top of searches, and also makes your role a featured job on search lists.
Finally, the highest level of "premium plus" features all of these as well as posts on the Jobs North Facebook and LinkedIn pages – promoting your role to the widest possible audience.
"We have extensive experience and resources to allow us to succeed in attracting the highest calibre of candidate to your vacancies," said a spokesperson for Jobs North. "Being an established specialist site with a full range of positions across the Highlands & Moray as well as the rest of Scotland we provide job seekers with a choice that enables us to attract the best candidate for you.
"All of our vacancies are CV-matched to highly relevant jobseekers by criteria such as experience, skills and location.

"We offer a wide range of options, if you need your vacancy to stand out from the crowd."
Tens of thousands of jobs to choose from
And if you're a job seeker rather than an employer, the site has oodles to offer too.
Each month roughly 30,000 new jobs are advertised on the site – meaning it's a great jumping off point if you're on the hunt for work.
Be it looking for a new career, seeking to return to the workplace, or simply browsing for inspiration, there's plenty to check out.
And there's a real range of positions available – from chief executives in Caithness, to jobs in the great outdoors with environmental agencies.
What's more, Jobs North's handy categories tab breaks down the various roles into useful groups (with a number in brackets highlighting how many roles are currently available in that section).
There are nearly 40 categories from which to choose or browse, ensuring you will be able to check at a glance how many roles are available in your chosen field.
From agriculture, forestry and gardening, to public sector; from estate agents to engineering and science; and from hospitality, hotel and restaurant, to computing/IT, there's a category out there to suit your own employment background and preferred job.
But why wait for a job to appear – upload a CV
The site also gives jobseekers the perfect opportunity to put themselves front and centre with would-be employers.
You can upload your CV, which not only ensures that employers looking for someone just like you will get to see your availability, but also saves previous job hunting time too.
You can use your LinkedIn profile as your CV, saving your writing one from scratch, and it will make sure you receive all the right jobs straight to your inbox.
Not only that but by storing your CV with Jobs North, you'll be able to apply for jobs quickly and easily.
Having your CV uploaded into Jobs North also puts you in the shop window and puts you at the front of the queue with would-be employers – your new employer could find YOU!
Jobs North's CV Match services also use efficient matching technology to send the right jobs straight to your inbox, so you need never miss a job advert again.
