Two marketing organisations are to stage their first joint event in West Yorkshire.

The Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) and the Professional Marketing Forum will co-host the event, entitled How to Boost Your Marketing Career as part of a closer working relationship.

The event is designed to give people practical help in moving their careers to the next level with information and advice from a variety of sources. They include a CIM qualified practitioner and CIM Accredited Study Centre as well as specialist marketing recruitment agency Elevation.

Andrew Sherratt, chairman of CIM Mid Yorkshire said “This event builds on a successful event hosted by our strategic partner, Elevation Recruitment, last year, which was very well received and we are thrilled that PM Forum have thought it worth supporting too.”

Graham Munday, regional chairman for PM Forum in Yorkshire, said: “We are delighted to be associated with this event.

“It will provide practical insights to marketers on how to move their career to the next level by seizing opportunities and maximising the knowledge and insight available from professional bodies such as the CIM and the PM Forum.”

The event is free to attend and takes place at 6pm next Monday at Bewleys Hotel in Leeds. Go to www.cim.co.uk/yorkshire or call 01628 427340,
