For Advertisements submitted to us by email, we will produce an invoice for payment and this will be returned to you by way of email with a purchase order number.

If an Advertisement is submitted by way of email to us, we may in our absolute and unfettered discretion agree to publish an Advertisement without payment in advance of such publication. If we exercise our discretion and publish an Advertisement without payment in advance from a Member, this shall under no circumstance be (i) interpreted as a waiver of our right to payment (in full) in accordance with the invoice submitted or (ii) taken to mean that payment of our invoice is conditional upon the success of any Advertisement including but not limited to any interview or job offered.

If employers wish all or some of the jobs on their company website to be scraped automatically and placed as job advertisements on workingmums.co.uk or workingwise.co.uk then a set up fee of £1200 per site will be included in the contract. If the jobs are also to appear on workingdads.co.uk, then this fee is waived but the scrape can only be implemented if set up on workingmums.co.uk too. After set up the monthly cost for job scraping is £100 per site where the scrap is implemented, excluding workingdads.co.uk. The monthly fee has a 30 day notice period before the end of the agreement, if the the renewal occurs later than the agreed renewal date, the employer will be liable for the monthly fees until the renewal occurs.  Please note that if an employer does not renew their contract, then decides to renew at a later date the job scrape will need to be set up from scratch again, so the same set up and monthly fees will apply.

6. PAYMENT
