Recruitment websites for Manchester agencies with branches, shifts and specialist desks.

We take on recruitment website development Manchester agencies need when one site has to serve very different people: a warehouse operative in Trafford Park looking for night shifts, a developer in Ancoats weighing up a scale-up, and a finance lead in Spinningfields who wants an interim controller next week. Codeeo builds the site, the vacancy feed, the branch pages and the forms behind it, so each visitor finds their route quickly and every application or brief lands in your CRM with the right owner.

We are a team of 80+ based in Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, with 200+ projects delivered across the UAE and the US. Manchester clients work with us remotely: every workshop, review and handover happens by video call.

What goes into the build

Features shaped by how Greater Manchester hires.

Greater Manchester is ten boroughs with very different labour markets. Temporary and industrial work clusters around Trafford Park, the airport and the logistics parks along the motorways. Professional services gather in Spinningfields and around Piccadilly. Media and digital roles sit at MediaCityUK in Salford and across the Northern Quarter and Ancoats. Health, research and university jobs line the Oxford Road Corridor.

A single generic jobs page serves none of them well. The features below let one site behave differently for each audience: shift details and quick apply for temporary roles, depth and credibility for professional desks, and branch pages for the towns where candidates actually live. Where your setup is unusual, such as a staffing arm and a search arm under one group, we plan a custom recruitment website development Manchester build so the structure follows your business rather than a template.

Explain your project
  • Branch pages across the boroughs

    A page for each branch, whether in Bolton, Stockport, Wigan, Oldham or the city centre, with its address, opening details you control, team, local jobs and LocalBusiness markup that matches your Google Business Profile.

    Candidates searching near home find the nearest branch first.

  • Shift and temporary job templates

    Job pages for temporary roles that lead with what matters: shift pattern, pay rate, start date, site location, transport links and any PPE or certificate needed. Candidates can apply for several shifts or sites in one step, and expired shifts drop out of search and structured data together.

    Faster fills for temporary desks with fewer back and forth calls.

  • Quick apply on mobile

    For temporary and entry level roles, apply with a phone number, a few questions and an optional CV. For professional roles, a CV led form. The template switches automatically based on the job type coming from your CRM, so consultants never have to choose a form by hand.

    Each audience gets the form that suits the role.

  • Travel aware search

    Filters by borough and by distance, with notes on Metrolink and Bee Network bus access for sites outside the centre, such as the logistics parks near the M60 and M62. Industrial roles can show whether a site is reachable for early or late shifts by public transport.

    Fewer no shows from people who could not get there.

  • Licensing and compliance pages

    If you supply temporary workers into food processing or packing, gangmasters licensing applies, and your site should show licence details and worker rights clearly. We build those pages with you, along with Conduct Regulations information for work seekers.

    Compliance information candidates and clients can find easily.

  • Vacancy feed and multiposting link

    Jobs flow in from your CRM, whether Bullhorn, Vincere, Eploy, JobAdder or a temporary staffing system, and the site stays in step with what your multiposting tool sends to the boards. Filled shifts disappear on the next sync, and each application is tagged with the board or page it came from so branches can see which channels work.

    No stale vacancies and no double entry.

  • Specialist desk sections

    Professional, digital and media desks get their own sections with consultant profiles, salary commentary and briefing forms, written for the Manchester market rather than repeating national copy, and linked to the live roles each consultant is working on.

    Credibility with clients who compare several agencies.

  • Language support for key pages

    Where your temporary workforce includes people more comfortable in Polish, Romanian or Urdu, we can add translated versions of the most important pages, such as how to register and how pay works, while keeping the job feed in English. Translations are reviewed by a fluent speaker you nominate before they are published.

    Clearer onboarding for a multilingual workforce.

  • Consent and data handling

    Cookie consent under PECR, privacy notices that match your processing, CVs passed straight to the CRM and retention rules that remove stale records, all set up in line with UK GDPR and ICO guidance.

    Data practices that hold up to scrutiny from clients and regulators.

  • Accessible from the start

    WCAG 2.2 AA design and testing, readable on low cost phones, forms that work with screen readers and a clear way to request adjustments, which the Equality Act 2010 expects employers and agencies to offer.

    No candidate shut out by the site itself.

Who this is for

Four Manchester agencies this suits.

Manchester recruitment ranges from large temporary staffing operations running several branches to small specialist teams that place a handful of senior people each month. Both need a site, but the priorities are opposite: speed and volume for one, authority and discretion for the other.

Most agencies we speak with sit in one of these four groups. The group decides which pages lead, which forms we build first and how the site connects to your back office.

01

A multi-branch temporary staffing agency

You fill warehouse, driving, cleaning and production shifts across Greater Manchester, often at short notice. The site has to be quick on a phone, show rates and shift patterns plainly, take applications in a few taps and route them to the nearest branch. Branch pages and local search matter more than polished articles here. A clear registration route for people without a CV is often the single most useful page on the site.

Mobile speed is tested on real low end devices.

02

A professional services specialist

Accountancy, legal and HR placements into firms around Spinningfields and King Street. Clients want evidence you know their market, so the site leads with consultant expertise, salary insight and a confidential briefing route. Job volume is smaller, but each page needs to read well and rank for specialist terms. Quarterly salary commentary written by your consultants gives clients a reason to return and to share your pages.

03

A digital, media and tech recruiter

Your candidates are developers, designers and producers around MediaCityUK, Ancoats and the Northern Quarter. They expect a site that looks current and loads fast, with honest detail on salary, stack and hybrid pattern. Portfolio and GitHub links matter as much as CVs, and community events or meet-up listings can sit on the site as a reason for candidates to keep coming back.

Recruitment website design Manchester's digital crowd respects starts with speed.

04

A group with staffing and search arms

Two businesses, different audiences, one back office. We build a shared platform with separate front ends or clearly separated sections, so temporary workers never land on executive search pages and senior clients never see shift adverts. Admin, feed and consent setup stay in one place, which keeps maintenance and data protection work in a single, manageable system.

Our six-stage build for Manchester agencies.

  1. 01Discovery on videoWe map branches, desks, job types, CRM and boards, and agree which audiences the site must serve first, then write down scope, integrations, owners on your side and the order pages will launch.
  2. 02Information architectureBranch, desk and job templates, apply routes by job type, compliance pages, language versions and a redirect map from your current site.
  3. 03Design and prototypesClickable prototypes of temporary and professional job pages, tested on phones before visual polish, so the forms suit each audience and nobody is asked for more information than the role needs.
  4. 04Build and integrationsCMS, CRM feed, structured data, branch markup, consent banner and analytics, on a staging site with shared review links throughout.
  5. 05Testing and contentAccessibility, speed on mobile networks, feed edge cases such as multi site shifts, and loading of branch, desk and compliance content.
  6. 06Launch and supportGo live, redirects checked, Search Console monitored, branch profiles aligned, and editors trained so branches can update their own pages.

Technology

What we build this with.

We pick technology around your CRM, branch count and editing needs. WordPress works well for many agencies; a headless CMS with Next.js suits groups wanting very fast pages and shared components across brands. Hosting is in a UK or EU region, with backups, uptime monitoring and security patching covered by a written maintenance plan, and every account in your name so you can move supplier without rebuilding the site.

Questions Manchester agencies ask us.

The vacancy feed, job pages by type, mobile apply and branch pages.

For most Manchester agencies the first release covers a reliable CRM feed, job templates for temporary and permanent roles, quick apply on mobile, branch pages for each location and the legal basics: privacy notice, cookie consent and terms. Desk sections, articles and language versions can follow in planned releases once the core is live and bringing in applications. Starting this way also gives you real search and application data to decide which desk or borough deserves the next set of pages, instead of guessing at launch.
