Mexico’s job board EmpleoListo acquired

September 02, 2016

Assured Labor, a provider of job boards in emerging markets targeting mid- to low-wage candidates, sold Mexican job board EmpleoListo to OCCMundial, part of SEEK Limited. SEEK is publically traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. 

The transaction closed in August; terms were not disclosed.

The EmpleoListo brand will remain and operate as an independent brand of OCCMundial. Assured Labor Founder and CEO David Reich, who launched Assured Labor while in business school at MIT, will continue to advise the company for a period of time.

Launched in 2010, EmpleoListo targets low-to-mid wage positions, with more than 1.3 million job seekers and 45,000 employers on the platform.

“By acquiring EmpleoListo, OCC will enable our clients to recruit for all levels — from executives to blue-collar positions,” said OCCMundial CEO Ricardo Rodarte. “EmpleoListo’s beloved brand will be a tremendous compliment to OCC.”

“EmpleoListo has placed nearly 100,000 low-wage workers in Mexico in jobs,” Reich said. “By joining with OCC, our impact will only accelerate. We look forward to bringing these two game-changing services together.”

Assured Labor retains its brand in Brazil, TrabalhoJá, as well as technology and patents pending.
