About Leeds College of Building

Highly regarded by the industry it specialises in, Leeds College of Building is a unique establishment. As the only College in the UK dedicated to construction and the built environment, it is nationally recognised for delivering courses and apprenticeships suitable for school leavers through to adults looking to retrain or develop their skills. Established in 1960, the College now has around 6,500 students based over three campuses in Leeds.

The College’s unique position and excellent reputation means they need to attract only the finest industry experts when looking for their skilled and knowledgeable teaching staff. We have been delighted to manage their recruitment advertising since 2013 and provide them with a seamless service tailored to the requirements of each vacancy.

We have developed and refined successful strategies to target the right candidates from predominately outside of the Further Education environment. We identify where these candidates will be looking for their next role and ensure the advert clearly conveys the benefits of teaching, which may not be something they have previously considered.

Client Feedback

‘As a Construction College our vacancies are often quite specialist and we can struggle to find candidates with the right mix of qualifications and industry experience. onlyFE offer a bespoke service tailored to our needs including candidate searching and placing our adverts on the more specialist job boards, which they may not usually deal with.

I would certainly recommend onlyFE to other further education providers.’
