MORE THAN JUST A JOBS BOARD, ENGAGING DIRECTLY WITH THE MOST INFLUENTIAL LEADERS IN THE INDUSTRY

WAN is more than just a jobs board. Our global architecture and interiors awards programme is the largest of its kind which means that as a media company, we engage directly with most of the top architectural firms and interior designers, either through project submissions or through our top level judging panel comprising of some of the most influential leaders in the industry.

THE LARGEST SUPPLIER OF NEWS AND INFORMATION TO THE GLOBAL ARCHITECTURE COMMUNITY

Over the past seven years, WAN has built up a huge loyalty to its brand through our range of services:

• A daily business information data product (30% of top 100 architects subscribe).
• 24/7 free global news through emails, web, apps, voice and video.
• The world's largest architecture awards programme.
• New for 2013, a series of high profile events culminating in World Architecture Day in October.
• WAN is the largest supplier of news and information to the global architecture community.

A UNIQUE INTEGRATED STRATEGY

We often hear that agencies like to advertise alongside jobs from practices. As part of our integrated strategy, this year participants in the WAN AWARDS are eligible for very competitive recruitment advertising rates. Meaning that there is an abundance of new roles every day, this in turn generates further traffic and popularity for WAN jobs. These roles are then linked to current projects and locations from the associated practices and studios.

REACHING OUT TO A WIDER AUDIENCE

From our research, most architects will initiate a career move to do better architecture, not just to secure a better package. By focusing on award winning projects, we are reaching a wider audience; Architects who are inspired by the architecture produced by successful firms. It’s not a co-incidence that winning firms will often be hiring.

REACHING OUT TO A HIGHER QUALITY OF POTENTIAL APPLICANTS

Because of our integrated strategy, we are generating both a high volume and high quality of applications through our jobs board. And as we are engaging directly with many industry leaders through our comprehensive and successful awards programme, we naturally attract a higher calibre of potential applicants. To save our partners time and resource we offer a screening feature which filters any applicants that are not eligible to work in, for example, a particular location.

TRULY INTERNATIONAL

WAN operates on a truly international level, bringing our audience news from every corner of the world, and in turn reaching potential talent all over the world.

• In October we launched WAN China blog which has already received 1300 unique page views.
• Our awards programme is the largest in the world running in 68 countries around the globe.

• We can also include the jobs in the weekly News Review which goes to nearly 150,000 subscribers.
• On average we see over 100 applications every day from 20+ countries.

TARGETED ADVERTISING TO OPTIMISE JOB POSTINGS

As part of our larger recruitment packages we offer targeted positioning to optimise the jobs posted, such as pop-up button ads and featured jobs which are triggered by geography or other matching data. We can include banners and promotional films according to key regions or sectors to attract the most appropriate candidates. We can tailor this to suit your needs.
