The Teams
Our May Round Up:
At the beginning of the month, we proudly showed our support for Mental Health Awareness Week. This year, the theme was movement, so we took the opportunity to ask some of our team members how staying active has benefited their mental well-being. Their insights were both inspiring and informative. To read their personal stories, check out our Mental Health article on LinkedIn now.
In continuation of our efforts to promote mental health and well-being, our very own Jessica Dawe participated in the Battersea Muddy Dog Run 2024. Alongside her dog Lexie, Jess successfully raised funds for this amazing charity, showcasing the positive impact of physical activity and community involvement.
Additionally, we are thrilled to announce the launch of tickets and invitations for our inaugural AI Forum, which will be held at the TeamJobs office. This exciting event will feature two distinguished guest speakers. Jake Moore and Nick Carlile . Jake will delve into "The Good and The Bad about AI," offering a balanced perspective on artificial intelligence. Meanwhile, Nick will explore "The Awesome Stuff AI Can Do and How It Can Help Your Business," highlighting the transformative potential of AI in various industries.
We have a limited number of spaces left for this event, and we would love for you to join us. If you're interested, please follow the link below to register!
Your participation and support mean a lot to us, and we look forward to seeing you there!
Networking Events:
This month, several team members have attended various networking events, allowing them to connect with professionals across different industries and gain valuable insights.
Our Operations Director, Natasha Hall , and our Commercial Perms Team Leader, Lucy Sinclair quite literally embarked on a unique networking adventure hosted by Dorset Chamber. They set sail from Poole Quay on a boat cruise sponsored by ElectriX. This scenic voyage provided stunning views and a relaxing atmosphere, facilitating meaningful conversations and networking opportunities with other local business leaders and professionals. Natasha and Lucy returned from the event with new connections and fresh ideas to bring back to our team.
Meanwhile, a couple of our Commercial Consultants Emily Price and Phoebe Jones made their way to the historic Marley House to attend the Dorset Business Growth Breakfast. This event featured a lineup of incredible speakers who delved into crucial topics such as; cyber security, public relations, and social media strategies. The consultants were able to absorb a wealth of knowledge from experts in these fields, gaining insights that will undoubtedly enhance our business practices and client services.
These events are part of our ongoing commitment to professional development and community engagement. By participating in such activities, we aim to stay ahead of industry trends, foster strong business relationships, and continuously improve our services.
