Werken bij Hubo
A dedicated careers portal for Hubo's 160+ Dutch DIY stores, built around live vacancy search and franchise-opportunity discovery.
The brief
Hubo runs 160+ home-improvement stores across the Netherlands and needed a recruitment site separate from its main retail brand — one focused entirely on getting candidates from "browsing roles" to "applying" as quickly as possible.
The portal centres on a searchable vacancy listing (cashier, store assistant, and helper roles across locations), supported by a short company-story section and a clear path into franchise-opportunity enquiries.
Approach & process
How the project moved from first brief to shipped product.
Candidate-Journey Mapping
Prioritised the vacancy search and application path above brand storytelling, based on how retail candidates actually browse job sites.
Search & Listing UI
Built the job search/filter experience and featured-vacancy cards for cashier, assistant, and helper roles.
Franchise & Contact Funnels
Added a distinct path for franchise-opportunity enquiries alongside the standard vacancy-application flow.
What we solved
The core constraint behind the project — and what shipped in the end.
Retail recruitment sites need to serve two very different visitors — hourly-role candidates and prospective franchisees — without either group getting lost in the other's journey.
- Searchable vacancy portal shipped across cashier, assistant, and helper roles
- Featured-vacancy and company-value sections built to reinforce employer brand
- Separate franchise-enquiry path added alongside the core application flow
