Reclaim 20+ hours weekly by automating job sourcing and talent matching
In 2026, the competitive edge for education and training providers isn't just the quality of the training—it's the strength of their private talent ecosystem.
For many careers teams, the administrative burden of manually "finding and sending" jobs to learners is an unsustainable drain. Most teams lose 20+ hours per week acting as human search engines. Job placement software like Spacewalk solves this by allowing you to generate your own automated, branded job board that sources and matches roles for you.
1. Generating Your Own Niche Job Board
The biggest mistake careers teams make is spending hours searching external job boards for their learners. Spacewalk allows you to flip the script: you generate your own niche board instead.
Branded Talent Marketplaces
You don’t send your learners away to generic sites. You invite them to a private, branded portal that belongs to your organisation. This creates a professional "home" for their career transition, keeping your brand at the centre of their success.
Automated Job Streams
Once your board is live, you don't have to manually "find" jobs to put on it. You configure your specific requirements (e.g., Junior Software Engineer, London, Hybrid) and Spacewalk’s automation engine populates your board with a live stream of verified roles.
Expert Tip: Whether your niche is Tech (Cyber, Data), Digital (Marketing, PM), or White Collar (Accounting), you can generate a custom stream that ensures every role your learners see is 100% relevant to their training.
2. Real-Time Application Activity Tracking
The power of owning the board is that you finally have visibility. When you send a learner to an external site, they disappear into a "black hole." When they use your generated board, you see everything.
Monitoring Engagement
You no longer have to ask, "Have you been looking at jobs?" You can see the data:
- Who is engaged: Identifying learners who are actively browsing and applying.
- Who is stalled: Seeing who hasn't logged in, allowing for proactive outreach.
Providing Targeted Support
Because you can track application activity, your team can provide "surgical" support. If you see a learner is applying but not getting traction, you can step in with interview prep or application workshops exactly when they need it most.
3. Reclaiming 20+ Hours for High-Value Coaching
By generating your own automated board, you eliminate the three biggest time-wasters in career services:
- Manual Sourcing: The software finds the roles.
- Manual Matching: The software flags the best roles for each learner.
- Manual Reporting: The software tracks the activity.
This "20-hour reclaim" allows your advisors to stop being researchers and start being coaches. Instead of copy-pasting links, they spend their time on high-impact activities like building employer relationships and refining learner confidence.
Conclusion: Own the Marketplace, Own the Outcome
Generating your own job board is the most effective way to scale your employability efforts in 2026. It provides a professional experience for learners, deep insights for your team, and a massive reduction in administrative overhead.
