Madgex partners with Amped in the US

Madgex, the job board outsource specialist, has announced a value-added commercial partnership with U.S. based job board service provider Amped Market Place Inc., (AMP).

The agreement reached appoints AMP as the sole distributor for Madgex’s software and services in North America.

AMP provides services designed to amplify media companies’ online recruitment revenues, website traffic and lead generation through best in class software platforms, outsourced media sales, SEO, and social media optimization (SMO) consultancy and services.

AMP was founded by media industry veteran Terry Baker. Baker’s 20+ year career has included helping software startups reach critical mass in online recruitment and classified advertising including executive leadership roles with Adicio Inc., Advanced Recruiting Technology Inc., Hire.com, and also as a founding member of the Board of Directors of the HR-XML International Consortium.

The Madgex job board software including the Resume Search and Match pay-for-performance candidate delivery model combined with AMP’s services will for the first time, says the company, enable a private label recruitment offering to be outsourced with a fully managed service including complete mobile site, mobile application support, social media integration and optimization, search engine optimization and direct sales and support.

The move was prompted by Madgex’s desire to enhance its competitive position in the U.S. offering commercial outsourced job board and resume software and services to media and recruitment businesses. By working with AMP, Madgex is able to better serve the U.S. market with the added benefit of Terry Baker’s leadership and AMP’s expertise. Madgex U.S. based clients will also benefit from ongoing consultancy and outsourced sales support plus the option to add social media and search engine optimization to their online recruitment businesses.

For the past 10 years, Madgex has been supplying digital recruitment services to the media and recruitment sectors. The Madgex job board platform powers over 250 job boards across the world including The Guardian, Minneapolis Star Tribune, and Incisive Media.

Simon Conroy, CEO, Madgex comments: “Madgex’s mission is to become the leading global supplier for commercial outsourced job board and resume software and services. This new commercial partnership will help Madgex to achieve this goal by adding to our existing North American client base which includes The Washington Post, The Minneapolis Star Tribune and Lexis Nexis. By utilizing the local market knowledge which Terry Baker has acquired through his years of direct experience with online media and the value added services of AMP, we can further increase our position in the global market. This heralds a new era for Madgex and one which we are extremely excited about”.

Terry Baker, CEO, Amped Market Place, comments: “The commercial partnership with Madgex will enable a one-stop solution for media companies that want to maximize their recruitment revenue and traffic through best in class software and services. The innovation that Madgex brings to the U.S. market makes it possible for the first time, to leverage traffic and recruitment products in new ways not currently possible with existing private label vendors. As an example, Madgex not only provides mobile recruitment websites, but has already deployed new mobile applications on Android and iPhone, ensuring that your site maximizes its reach and ability to help generate the largest volume and highest quality candidates for your employers.”
