Mark, Matthew and Richard bought Calibre back in 2009. They'd been working for the business for a number of years and decided to make it their own. Having known each other for many a year, they saw the value in long-standing relationships and put that at the heart of their strategy. An old friend from long ago, Simon, then joined in 2011 and Pete, an old friend of Matthew's, opened the Manchester office in 2013.
Recruitment is about finding the right person for the job and the right job for the person. And we do that by being good people with good instincts. We take great pride and responsibility in helping candidates to grow and helping businesses to evolve. That means saying it how it is and making sure we're on the other end of the phone when you need us. We like to listen, so we keep our ears open and our mouths shut, and we spend plenty of time understanding who you are and where you're heading. We're a sounding board, a strategic partner and an ally. We're also big believers in the Kaizen philosophy and place a lot of value on positive change, which keeps a smile on everyone's faces and helps to motivate and empower our team.

After a year of unpaid interning, living in annoyingly expensive places like Canada and then London I was very excited to finally be back in Leeds and to actually be earning some money. I mentioned in earlier blogs about my expectations for the internship, the expectation of an internship, a cool job title that, when translated, actually means data input and coffee making. So, when I was being asked to be creative, write blogs, plan and deliver new campaigns and join in with Calibre incentives I was very pleasantly surprised.
Sometimes the idea of moving to a big city abroad or miles from home can be a great step and an exciting challenge, but don’t think staying closer to home can’t provide you with new challenges, opportunities and career potential. Here are my top six reasons for staying in your hometown.
Rather than your typical student nights out and big shopping centre by working in your own local area you will find even more of what your hometown has to offer. While working at Calibre Search I have found some of the nicest lunch spots in the city and even a lovely running route.

Calibre Search was not a company I knew about before applying for the internship. I had never worked for a recruitment company but decided to take the risk and try something different. Luckily for me, it has really paid off! I love the company, the people I work with and my role. Taking the risk of a new or different type of career can be daunting but doing it at home makes it a little less overwhelming, if it’s not the job for you, you are safe in the knowledge you haven’t spent lots of time and money moving somewhere you don’t want to be.
I am an advocate of going for the job you want no matter the risk, but sometimes the expectation of a new city and a large company does not match reality. Focus less on what sounds good and weigh up your options and opportunities. You don’t always have to go for a big international company in a capital city, like me, you could learn a lot and meet great people simply by looking a little closer to home.

However, worrying news stories claiming mass job loss across hundreds of industries as a result of AI are putting a negative spin on what can be a hugely effective new way of doing business. For marketers AI opens opportunities for innovation, through developing a more personalised experience for customers while freeing up marketers to focus more on developing creative content. If you are a newbie to the marketing sector with little experience with AI or even a veteran in the field worried about how this innovative technology could shape the future of the industry, and your career, then there are a few pieces of information about Artificial Intelligence that are important to know:
