Our office move in Leeds has caught the eye of the press with articles in the Yorkshire Post and Bdaily. The article can be found below.
"Leeds-based recruitment consultancy, Calibre Search has moved to bigger premises on Leeds South Bank.
The specialist consultancy will join the likes of Burberry at the rapidly growing hub for the city’s creative, digital and tech industries.
Calibre says the move comes after a flood of announcements about investments in the rejuvenated South Bank, making it one of the city’s prime locations. Most recently, this includes plans to transform Leeds Station into an integrated high-speed transport hub announced last week.
Managing director Mark Lyons said: “There’s a real buzz about the investment and redevelopments in the South Bank area, including the Tower Works project, Leeds Dock and now the HS2 hub.
"It’s becoming one of the most sought after addresses in the city, and we wanted to secure our place in what promises to be an exciting future for the area,”
Calibre moved into offices at Victoria Wharf at the start of 2014 and has now outgrown this space, having doubled the size of its Leeds-based team from seven to 16.
Cushman and Wakefield in Leeds helped Calibre secure a highly specified first floor space with views of the River Aire at 7 Brewery Place.
“We decided to move further away from the traditional city centre professional services district as the companies in the South Bank are more in tune with our own business approach,” said Mark.
“The Northern Powerhouse initiative offers a great opportunity to companies in the major northern cities of Leeds and Manchester who are keen to attract high quality professionals from the south. We are confident we have the skills and the connections to support these companies and further grow our own business.
“As recruiters we think it’s important to develop stronger relationships in areas where incoming investment and developments will help the local economy grow and provide sustainable employment opportunities. Our office environment and locations in both Leeds and Manchester will play a huge part in making us the employer of choice for recruitment consultants, as well as the consultancy of choice for firms in our specialist sectors of the built environment, marketing and IT."
