CareerBuilder.co.uk has announced a two-year deal with Virginmedia.com to power a new online job centre on its Jobs and Money site. The financial details of the deal have not been disclosed.

Dave Smith, managing director, said in an exclusive interview with Recruiter: "I'm excited about the deal because Virgin gets a high number of unique visitors — about 10m per month."

Smith said CareerBuilder's job-searching technology had been a key reason why Virgin had chosen to link up with them.

"We don't force registration on candidates and we're very much more focussed on matching the right candidate to the right job," he said.

He added that the Virgin brand "would resonate with UK residents", and the announcement means that CareerBuilder's network reaches 160 sites across the country. The site will go live by the end of June.
