Evenbreak Launch Improved Job Board for Disabled Candidates

Evenbreak has launched its new job board for disabled candidates with better accessibility and functionality.

The job board, which was originally launched in 2011 and is run by and for disabled people, has over 700,000 inclusive jobs posted each year.

The improvements to the job board will allow more disabled candidates to access and find jobs and give employers who advertise on the platform more functionality to target candidates and be seen as inclusive employers of choice.

“We are thrilled that our new job board can give a better experience for everyone. It’s even more accessible, and has greater functionality,” said Jane Hatton, CEO of social enterprise Evenbreak.

“Disabled candidates will be able to search more effectively for jobs, set up job alerts so they are informed of jobs matching their criteria as soon as they are posted, and complete profiles and upload CVs so that inclusive employers can find them.

“Employers can be seen as inclusive employers of choice, target specific types of candidate (regionally, or by skill set, for example) and access better reporting.

“It’s a great milestone for Evenbreak, our candidates and our employers, and will be accompanied by an amazing marketing strategy to make sure disabled people looking for new or better work can access our services.”

Evenbreak aims to reduce the disability employment gap by offering inclusive and accessible careers support for disabled people looking for new or better work, including resources, events and personalised one-to-one career or business coaching.

All candidate services are free of charge and designed and delivered by professionals with lived experience of disability.
