PRESS RELEASE

The UK pest management industry's new hiring and careers hub, pestcontroljobs.co.uk, has launched.

The site assists employers in the pest control industry with hiring staff for a range of positions directly, while also aiding industry professionals with finding the right job for their career.

It will also serve to attract new and diverse talent to a career in pest control, critical as estimates suggest that a large percentage of the industry is due to retire in the next 5-10 years. 

Pest control recruitment veterans Liam Tack and George Jolliffe, the founders of the site, commented:

"We are immensely grateful to the industry, including BPCA, for their support with pestcontroljobs.co.uk.

"Having recruited into the pest control sector for the better part of two decades, we have noticed an increase in the costs associated with hiring the right staff.

"The site will serve to allow employers in the industry to recruit experienced hires effectively and directly, and to further the profile of the fantastic careers available in our great industry, as we seek to attract the next generation of pest control professionals.

"Social media will play a key role in promoting jobs, and we are pleased that the site's official Facebook page, Pest Control Jobs UK, has 3,500 UK industry professional members, affording employers access to a wide pool of talent."
