Overview
Spencer Ogden recruits into the energy sector in the UK, Scotland, Middle East and United States. They offer clients a full service recruitment solution, encompassing executive search, permanent and contract contingent services. In response to significant change in the energy sector, they have experienced rapid growth in 2011.
Requirement
Spencer Ogden came to 4MAT needing a website that can be efficiently adapted to reflect their changing business model and development into new energy sectors. They needed website functionality, design and branding that could be duplicated across different interfaces but with sufficient differentiation between the sectors.
Web content was good, although disorganized around the site. 4MAT were asked to incorporate the clients strong branding and make the most of their content.
Solution
Built on the DV3 platform, the website gives flexibility for interfaces to be added to suit commercial demands. A recognizable brand is cleverly deployed throughout a website with 7 different interfaces, all based on one universal design. Colour is used as an indication of the different energy sectors, presenting a vibrant website with a logical user experience.
Content, such as news and jobs, is organized by the interfaces and is therefore tailored to the sector relevant to the user. The latest jobs scroll and quick search facility gives job seekers options to browse or use targeted job search.
Result
This website won Best National Recruitment Agency Website at the 2011 NORA Awards. This is a fantastic achievement for Spencer Ogden in only their second full year of trading. The secret of the site’s success is a combination of design and functionality which encourages targeted job search and increases conversions. Also central to this website’s success is regularly updated content and jobs, keeping the site fresh and interesting on every visit.
The initial launch of www.spencer-ogden.com included 5 web site interfaces, but the recent addition of a further two more demonstrates the platforms adaptability and the speed at which 4MAT’s DV3 platform can be used to expand a website to fulfill clients’ business needs. The site has a modern design which has been much lauded by Spencer Ogden’s peers in the industry.
