And there we have it, almost the end of another year, and as ever, what a year…
With the continued stories of tough times we’re not quite sure of what lies ahead but we’re a happy and positive crew. It’s been a busy and successful year, with objectives achieved (financial and personal, double whoop!) which we’re all proud of. In fact, it’s been our best year yet.
It’s clear the market has adjusted over the last couple of years. There’s an increasing clarity around business propositions, market challenges and how to respond to them. HR, Recruitment and Recruiting Managers are savvy, developing tight knit marketing and communications teams with a clear focus of delivery and accountability. This focus has created increased opportunities for specialists and employees who are seeking roles with responsibility and ownership. The right attitude, coupled with aptitude and ambition appears to go along way.
There’s been a significant increase in opportunities across all sectors. Digital unsurprisingly has remained strong agency and client side. Most noticeable though is an increased confidence borne out by increasing numbers of vacancies across integrated and media businesses.
And here at Ad Lib our continued investment across Social Channels has paid dividends. We strive to be at the heart of the marketing and communications sectors, not simply recruiters on the periphery. Social Media increasingly enables us to enhance our sector experience, strengthening active and passive relationships by sharing knowledge and experiences. Check us out on LinkedIn, Twitter and beyond.
So here’s to another record breaking year in 2012. We’d like to thank everybody we work with, in whatever shape or form, and wish you a great Christmas and prosperous New Year. Let’s hope it’s an absolute belter.
Oooooh one last thing. Is anybody else out there experiencing a real shift in attitude to the Christmas break this year? It’s the 20th December and there’s no signs of a slowdown this end. We’re not complaining, liking it!
