In doing so it is delivering greater reach, quality and diversity of job seekers than ever previously available and opening-up previously inaccessible opportunities for employers and candidates alike.   World Archery joins a growing number of international governing bodies and multi-national sports organisations such as IMG, Fast Track and Eurosport which have already signed-up to the benefits of being plugged into one of the largest networks in sport.   "We are delighted to be working with World Archery," said Will LLOYD. "They are a highly focussed, professional and ambitious governing body which is committed to progress. They understand that taking a positive attitude towards recruitment will have a direct bearing on their future success. Together we will unlock tremendous new opportunities for people seeking jobs or developing their careers in the sector."   Tom DIELEN, World Archery Executive Director, said: "People are our biggest asset, we are all operating in an increasingly professional environment and our ability to carry out our role depends on the quality of our people. GlobalSportsJobs presents us with a tremendous opportunity to develop a talent based community for the global archery family. The fact that it is integrated into a global talent network ensures we will be able to build a successful future for our sport."   GlobalSportsJobs represents a natural evolution for sports recruitment although its impact will be quite revolutionary. It is the next logical step for the industry and GlobalSportsJobs will become the hub for the extended sports family.   GlobalSportsJobs offers candidates access to the whole world of sports jobs at one click of a mouse, eliminating the need to search multiple sites. GlobalSportsJob’s search capability makes it easy to access appropriate jobs by sector, role, salary, location and other criteria.   For further information:   Didier MIEVILLE FITA Marketing Director Phone: +41 (0)21 614 30 50 dmieville@archery.org Will LLOYD GlobalSportsJobs Phone: +44 (0)7799 117790 wl@globalsportsjobs.com   World Archery Communication
