Diana Campbell's 2021 Summer Business Plans

Today we're talking to Diana Campbell who is the managing director of global job board Zoek, based in Cheshire but operating nationally, in the USA and in India.

May is the last month of Spring – how has Spring been for you so far? 

It’s been extremely busy, especially as we actioned a business strategy restructure that I’ve had to implement in the last two months in the business, but also busy as I became an auntie for the 1st time in March – so currently juggling my time between work and family. 

What are your plans for the Summer – for your business and for you? 

For the business, it’s to continue to sales growth – so that we can achieve our break-even /in profit goal this year. 

Personal plans are to ensure that I continue to have a work/life balance, and not clutter up too much of my weekend with plans, as I have enjoyed the quietness of my social calendar during COVID19.

What are you most looking forward this summer which you had to step away from last summer? 

HOLIDAYS…in the sun! 

May is National Walking Month, and walking was an activity which was one thing we could do over the last 12 months.  

Cannot say I was ever a fan of walking until I got to 25 – as I realised that walking is not only great as a ‘break from the hustle and bustle’ but also, amazing to see how beautiful and green the UK is! 

I have enjoyed walking that much that I’ve challenged myself to complete all 214 Wainwright's walks n the Lake District by the end of 2023. So far, I’ve completed six and that’s after starting the challenge in March.  

Where is your favourite place to walk? 

Must be Kinder Scout in the Peak District. 

Are you attending (have you booked) any events at all for you as a business person, or for you personally that you are really looking forward to? 

We are very much hoping to exhibit at some well-known recruitment industry B2B events later in the year which were originally set to take place in 2020. 

All being well, team Zoek are looking forward to showcasing our global job site and networking with prospective hirers and partners at the following expos:

  • In-House Recruitment Live, London (14.09.21)
  • In-House Recruitment Live, Manchester (06.10.21)
  • Recruitment Agency Expo, Birmingham (06.10.21-07.10.21) 

What’s your one top business tip to help others be positive about their business in May 2021? 

Hard work will always pay off! It might not feel like it at moments, but continue to work hard, as every bit of work that is done is getting you, or the business closer to the ‘goal’. 

Tell us all one funny thing about you which we won’t know and you are happy to share (make us laugh!).

My first ever pet was a pigeon, called Lucky.
