disagree  Steven Geller: It simply means centrally - records probably on a mainframe.

Explanation:
Hi !
I am afraid your text has been already translated once from another language...
As en matter of fact, "en central" is a little bit "strange" :sounds like a french traduction from japanese or another language...
Now let us examine the possibilities :
If this text refers to a Web site offering jobs of is the translation of some "talent scouts" web or other types of "executive search" companies,I suspect, without being sure that they mean that the job descriptions 'files are accessible only for the web responsable (I.e: they remain confidential).
But I am not sure....
