Inside Franchise Business is now linked to online recruitment site CareerOne.

Career Media Group, a new entity launched by Inside Franchise Business publisher Octomedia, has announced the purchase of a 90 per cent shareholding in the digital recruitment business.

The publishing company, along with a group of strategic investors, has bought the majority stake in Career One from Acquire Learning and Careers, which entered voluntary administration in May.

“This will be a big win for our national audience, who will now benefit from access to both the latest news and industry insights, paired with exciting, personalised career opportunities,” said Oliver Ranck, CEO of Octomedia and director of Career Media Group.

“We see this purchase as the perfect marriage for the business, adding to our continued commitment to innovation and adaption to the digital era.”
