Employment Weekly is a free, weekly jobs paper which was first brought out in April 2005, under the title 'South Lakeland Employment'.

We are dedicated to employment in the South Lakes & North Lancs area, and we are different from other advertising media in that:

  •  15,000 free copies are printed and distributed every fortnight.
  • It reaches the right people; it's focused towards those who are looking for work and looking to change work. As our paper carries only job adverts, anybody that actively picks up a copy will be more likely to apply for one of the positions available. 

  • Our advertisement rates are extremely attractive, with credit card sized adverts from £100 plus Vat (£10 per scc), and discounts for repeat adverts and charities, we could cut your recruitment costs by a staggering two thirds.

  • The coverage? South Lakes & North Lancashire area, centering around Kendal and Lancaster, reaching Barrow-in-Furness, up to Keswick, and all that lies between. We are the only employment paper that comprehensively covers these areas.

  • We're so sure that you'll successfully recruit through us, we offer a full 100%, 60 day Money-back Guarantee, making advertising a risk-free experience for our customers.

  • Copies are available in Supermarkets (where we have premium shelf positions), newsagents, petrol stations, convenience stores, Post Offices, shopping centres, libraries, Jobcentres and more throughout the area. 

  • Branded racking at many of our outlets ensures that our latest issue is easily spotted by potential employees.

  • Your jobs will also go on this dedicated website at no extra charge, a site which uses Google adwords to ensure that it features as a sponsored link when jobhunters type relevant searches (eg. 'jobs in kendal') into the world's most popular search engine.

  • We are locals, who have set up an independent paper, and our aim is to ensure that you get the maximum response to your adverts whilst offering a friendly, efficient and affordable service. Please see our testimonials page to see current customers who have benefitted from the publication.
