Blue Arrow and JobsAware

Helping job seekers stay safe, informed and protected

At Blue Arrow, fairness, transparency and trust matter. That is why we are a voluntary partner of JobsAware, a UK non-profit organisation supported by government and law enforcement to protect people from recruitment scams and labour market abuse.

JobsAware exists to keep job hunting safe. By working with them, we are reinforcing what we already believe: people deserve to find work without fear of exploitation, misinformation or unfair treatment.

What is JobsAware?

JobsAware, formerly known as SAFERjobs, was created to tackle the growing problem of fake job adverts, recruitment scams and worker exploitation.

They work with trusted recruitment agencies, regulators and law enforcement to:

  • Identify and remove fraudulent job activity
  • Share intelligence to stop scams before they spread
  • Provide free, expert support to anyone worried about a job offer or recruitment practice

What our JobsAware partnership means for job seekers

When you see Blue Arrow listed as a JobsAware partner, it means:

A commitment to ethical recruitment

We are committed to operating lawfully and treating people fairly, including temporary workers and those paid through umbrella companies. Job adverts must be genuine, accurate and clear.

A recognised mark of trust for job seekers

JobsAware partner agencies are vetted and publicly commit to tackling recruitment fraud. Their logo acts as a visible reassurance that you are dealing with a legitimate recruitment business.

Stronger protection against recruitment scams

JobsAware works closely with organisations such as the National Crime Agency and the Metropolitan Police to disrupt scams and remove fake adverts. Using a JobsAware partner significantly reduces the risk of fraud.

Independent support if something does not feel right

If you are unsure about a job offer, concerned about pay, or worried something may not be legitimate, JobsAware offers a trusted place to report concerns and receive free advice.

Greater transparency about your rights

JobsAware partnerships reinforce the importance of clear communication about pay, contracts and working arrangements, so you know where you stand from the outset.

Why JobsAware matters to employers

Responsible recruitment protects more than individuals. It protects businesses, workforces and reputations.

Employers who work with JobsAware partner agencies can be confident that:

  • Candidates are treated fairly and ethically
  • Recruitment processes are transparent and compliant
  • Short-term fixes do not create long-term risk

A safer recruitment market benefits everyone.

Blue Arrow’s JobsAware Promise

Being a JobsAware partner is voluntary, but the responsibility behind it is not. It reflects how we already work and what we stand for as a recruiter.

We are proud to support JobsAware and to play an active role in protecting job seekers, raising standards and maintaining trust in the UK labour market.

If you ever have concerns about a job, an advert or an offer, we encourage you to speak up. Support is available, and your safety always comes first.
