Madison Recruitment
A modern recruitment platform with smarter search and job integration
The challenge
Madison Recruitment is one of New Zealand’s leading recruitment agencies, connecting job seekers with top employers across the country.
Their existing website was starting to show its age. Visually, it no longer reflected Madison’s strong position in the market. Functionally, it lacked the tools job seekers expect today—like intuitive search, personalised alerts, and seamless application experiences.
Madison also needed a tighter integration between their website and Idibu, their job listing and applicant tracking system.
What we delivered
We worked closely with Madison to redesign and rebuild their website on WordPress—giving them a platform that’s as modern and professional as the services they offer.
Key improvements:
Fresh, modern design
A complete visual refresh to better reflect Madison’s brand and market leadership.
Custom job alerts
Candidates can now sign up for tailored alerts based on their preferences, keeping them engaged and up to date.
Idibu integration
Job listings now pull directly from Idibu, and applications feed straight back into their system—saving time and reducing errors.
Mobile-first experience
Optimised for all devices to ensure job seekers have a smooth experience on any screen.
Enhanced job search
We introduced smart filtering, keyword search, and location-based browsing to help users find relevant roles quickly.
The Results
The new website delivered immediate improvements in both user experience and internal efficiency.
Streamlined application process with fewer drop-offs
Increased engagement through targeted job alerts
Faster, simpler updates for the Madison team via WordPress
The project’s impact was also recognised on a global scale—the site was a finalist in the 25th annual Webby Awards, alongside brands like Spotify.
