Anderson Yorke helps people to manage and make the most of
career change. With the UK's economy seemingly close to melt down,
the number of people faced with job loss has been steadily on the
rise. We all know friends and relations who are having great
difficulty in getting back in to the world of work. It is therefore
of no surprise that Anderson Yorke's services are in demand. 2011
has seen the busiest start since the business was launched 5 years
ago in South Manchester. Whether it's as a result of companies
cutting costs, closing sites or top level changes in companies
enforced by the pressures of the market, Anderson Yorke are
passionate about helping people of all levels of seniority to turn
job loss into a new opportunity.
The demand for Anderson Yorke's services has increased
significantly in the past few months. Whether it is helping people
to write CVs, understand the subtleties of the job market, prepare
for interviews or take the plunge in going self-employed, Anderson
Yorke works with companies on a truly national basis. One of
their more recent projects involved having consultants on-site to
support a client's employees across six locations - from Scotland
to Tamworth, Doncaster to Blackpool -, all the employees having
been told on that very day that they had lost their jobs.
In response to Anderson Yorke's growth they are pleased to
announce the appointment of a new Director, Keith Busfield. Joining
from one of the UK's largest outplacement organisations, Keith has
extensive experience of the world of outplacement as well as
working with HR and Personnel teams across the UK. He successfully
launched a Midlands operation 10 years ago and is now keen to take
Anderson Yorke truly national. The first step in this is the recent
opening of Anderson Yorke's office in Temple Row in Birmingham.
Stefan Yorke, founder of Anderson Yorke, says: "we are truly
excited having recruited Keith to the team. He is a stalwart of the
outplacement industry and will be a huge asset as we roll our
services out nationally". In the words of a seasoned Group HR
Director "Keith is a person everyone should add to their network!
He has an unrivalled list of professional and personal
contacts and exceptional business development and relationship
management skills. Add him to the list of people you should
know!"
As Keith says: "It's never easy job hunting. And while the
recent news into the difficulties faced by the over 50s makes
Anderson Yorke's work even more of a challenge, it underlines the
value and rewards of helping people, whatever their age, find
good new jobs as soon as possible and with the least
worry."
