G8 Education signs with PageUp to strategically optimise and accelerate recruitment

MELBOURNE, Australia, Oct. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- G8 Education, a leading Australian childcare provider, has appointed PageUp to optimise and streamline its recruitment processes with best-in-class talent management software.

PageUp will drive greater efficiency and transparency in G8 Education's recruitment processes, allowing the organisation to increase the quality of hires while delivering an exceptional hiring manager and candidate experience.

As Australia's largest publicly-listed childcare provider, G8 Education has in excess of 9,400 Team Members across 470 early learning centres. With a mission to nurture and inspire the next generation, G8 Education plays an important role in the lives of Australian families and is looking to expand its presence in Australia.

PageUp's appointment is helping G8 Education to overhaul and optimise its recruitment strategy by enhancing processes, promoting transparency and collaboration, and reducing the time spent on administrative tasks.

PageUp's best-in-class talent management solution will now equip G8 Education with the following:

• Greater transparency and collaboration between internal recruitment and HR teams
• Accurate purpose-built reporting and meaningful dashboard analytics
• Sophisticated talent search and talent pooling functionality
• Proactive sourcing via in-system pooling and search capabilities to target hard-to-find skills

According to Lee Robinson, Talent Acquisition Manager at G8 Education, "PageUp gives G8 Education significantly better outcomes for everyone involved in the recruitment process: hiring managers, team members, candidates and the recruitment team through a more strategic approach towards sourcing great talent."

Having previously used the PageUp system in roles at leading organisations including Suncorp and Michael Hill, Robinson is excited to now implement PageUp Recruitment Management at G8 Education.

"It has given us the ability to enhance our strategic sourcing capability through talent pooling and has clearly enhanced the efficiency and effectiveness of our TA activities reducing the amount of time spent on administrative recruitment tasks," Robinson says.

As part of G8 Education's overhauled recruitment strategy, the PageUp Professional Services team executed a successful fully remote implementation – a process that Robinson says was easy and straightforward.

"The process has been immensely productive and we wouldn't be in the position that we are today without the help of the PageUp implementation team," Robinson says.

Mark Rice, CEO, PageUp says, "We're proud to support G8 Education in attracting and hiring the best talent as it looks to expand its reach across Australia. We look forward to helping the company transform and elevate its recruitment processes while providing an exceptional experience for all."
