Employer guide

How employers and agencies post student jobs

A practical flow for verified businesses posting 30-day student listings, managing messages, and supporting Digital Passport timesheets.

Verified visibility

Reach students aged 16-21

Create an employer or recruitment agency account, complete business verification, choose a listing package, then publish student-friendly work with clear pay, location, and responsibility details.

At a glance

Direct employers and recruitment agencies use separate account types.
Companies House checks support safer business verification.
Each listing states who handles wages, payroll, and the work arrangement.
Stripe handles listing payments and boosts when checkout is active.
01

Create the right account

Choose Direct Employer if you are hiring for your own business, or Recruitment Agency if you are hiring on behalf of other companies.

02

Verify the business

Limited companies use Companies House details. Sole traders or exceptions can be manually reviewed with suitable business evidence if that route is enabled.

03

Post a clear listing

Add job title, location, pay, shift pattern, description, contact route, and whether wages are handled by the employer or agency.

04

Manage messages and timesheets

Use platform messages for role questions. After shifts, review submitted timesheets so student Digital Passport records stay accurate.

Ready to post

Use clear student-friendly listings

Good listings explain exactly what the student will do, where they need to go, what they will be paid, when they are needed, what they should wear or bring, and who they should contact before the shift.
