A Case Study
Windrush Care
Growing the team: helping a homecare service provider attract local talent.
The Challenge
Windrush Care was facing a challenge. They had a rising demand for their services but were struggling to find enough caregivers to meet it. Traditional recruitment wasn’t working, so they partnered with My Kind of Marketing to refresh their approach and connect with local talent.
Here's How I Helped
- Developed a social media strategy focused on recruitment
- Created content that showcased their workplace culture
- Analysed competitors’ online presence
- Optimised hashtags and keywords for job seekers
- Crafted engaging posts that highlighted employment opportunities
- Scheduled content for maximum visibility
- Actively engaged with the community to build relationships
- Previously, Windrush Care’s social media lacked consistency and didn’t effectively communicate why someone would want to join their team.
I significantly improved their online presence, ensuring every post reflected Windrush’s values and culture. Our focus shifted from simply advertising jobs to demonstrating why Windrush Care is an excellent workplace.
The Results
- They hired enough staff to meet their needs
- More people started interacting with their social media
- They reinforced their position as an accredited and superior home care provider in the local area, showcasing their unique approach and high standards of care
- We were able to shift the campaign from recruitment of staff to recruitment of clients
This project demonstrates how a well-executed social media strategy can significantly impact recruitment in the care sector. By highlighting Windrush’s’ unique workplace culture, I helped them connect with the right candidates in their community.
