JobServe Ltd is a private company headquartered in Tiptree, Essex, United Kingdom, which runs an employment website, job adverts being placed on the site on behalf of employers and employment agencies. It is part of the Aspire Media Group Ltd. History Founded by Robbie Cowling, an Information Technology (IT) contractor and his business partner John Witney, it was originally incorporated as Fax-Me-Limited in 1993 and later changing its name to JobServe Ltd. in 1995. The company says the concept arose as the United Kingdom was rising out of recession in the 1990s and a problem area was identified with the IT workforce attempting to inefficiently find jobs through advertisements in recruitment magazines which would frequently turn out to be out of date. The company says it sought to address this on 4 May 1994 by the launch of a jobs-by-email service to send a daily and up to date list of targeted positions to job seekers. The company says it first created its website presence later in 1994 and it also claims this was the world's first recruitment website. By 2001 it had become a dominant force in the market with observers being of the opinion it controlled up to 80% of the IT recruitment market. This had led to litigation when it refused to accept advertisements from agencies associated with rival companies. In 2003 Jobserve became the first dot.com company to be selected for the Queen's Awards for Enterprise. The year also saw Cowling buy out Witney with Jobserve moving into £1 million new premises in Tiptree. By 2006 Jobserve was covering not only the IT sector but was covering 17 industry sectors in total. JobServe is currently managed by its co-founder Robbie Cowling and USA division, Richard Padgett. the company claims jobs-by-email still remained significant with a claim of 1.2 million job subscription emails being sent per day.
