Australia's first online, e-commerce and multi-channel recruitment company has opened to help increase online retail productivity in Australia.

E-commerce and multi-channel activities have increased exponentially within Australian retail over the last 3 years, with many retail organisations moving towards an online retail service, or upgrading their current content site to allow purchases, or creating a new online business.

This has started to cause a skills shortage within the industry for experience in the technology to support it, or operations to run it. However, the skills shortage isn't all due to the high demand, it is also due to the lack of information on specific skills and experience that is required, with both the retailers and the current recruitment agencies. This is causing companies to obtain the incorrect people to do the job, which can lead to incorrect strategy, process, information or technologies, if not direct revenue lose due to the additional learning curve needed.

These statements come from Australian retailers, and from personal experience, Curtis Johnson founder and director of mcrecruitment says: "after years of working within the online retail industry, which included the responsibility of hiring staff, I began to get frustrated with current market recruiters, who didn't understand the requirements I was giving them for e-commerce and multi-channel positions, which caused me to start sourcing staff directly, without the recruiters"

The same statements are suggested by Australian retailers, "I have spoken with hundreds of retailers, while working at Salmon Asia Pacific", Curtis says "and a recurring question which always arises is, 'what skills do we need?', we can help them."

This is the reasoning why multi-channel recruitment ('mcrecruitment') was started, which will be a niche player in the industry, as mcrecruitment only recruit for online, e-commerce and multi-channel positions for operations and technology.

mcrecruitment staff have worked in the e-commerce and multi-channel industry for many years, as online retailers or consultants which have worked in an e-commerce or multi-channel organisation, or have worked alongside retail organisations to plan & operate e-commerce business processes, or as designers and implementers of the e-commerce and multi-channel technology.

This places mcrecruitment in a unique position to better understand the remits of the online, e-commerce and multi-channel roles, in order to find the right person for the job, which increases productivity, strategy and industry best practice.

mcrecruitment are affiliated with many global specialist & service professionals and businesses within the industry, which makes them primed to be the leaders in recruitment for online, e-commerce and multi-channel.
