Token House Partnership have been operating internet services since 1999 including the promotion of educational and vocational development through various trading initiatives. This pioneering and successful partnership formed it's roots in Leeds during 1983 and their 1st Bookshop opened in 1987 and last year celebrating 30 years, as is still trading online successfully today!

Because there was such a phenomenal demand for the online recruitment service, started as Bridjobs and which we became so renown for in East Yorkshire, during the years that followed this was expanded with The Employers Agency as an add on, yet another unique and exciting development for the local business owners in Bridlington and the East Riding County. Although the Recruitment Agency Offices were open in Bridlington from 2009 to 2014 after trials and research, it was decided to revert back to a Jobsite.

East Riding of Yorkshire Community Accountancy (ERYCA) Martin Crossland, former Community Accountant at ERVAS East Riding Voluntary Action Services Ltd., also set up an independent accounting service, which focused on the continued provision of quality accounts preparation and independent examination service, book-keeping and payroll services to all community groups, organisations and registered charities within the East Riding of Yorkshire.

Martin, who was instrumental in the success of the ERVAS pilot project - which ran as a partnership through Humberside Community Accountancy and was financed via ChangeUp funding during 2006 and 2007 - left there to develop several other initiatives, one being ERYCA. Although funding ceased for the original project in September 2007, he then continued to provide accountancy services to groups, resulting in the formation of eryca.co.uk and this also ran until 2014.

In 2004, following relocation to Bridlington, the partnership became aware of the opportunities not only for progression, but also for the benefit of the area and its population through utilising their expertise, ethos and commitment to regeneration programmes. The establishment of the jobsite was achieved by using the experience gained within the voluntary and community sectors, working primarily within areas focused around community development, employment, training and assisting local businesses to thrive.

The continued success of Token House is due partly because browsing for jobs and books online, are two of the most popular internet trends. Currently in the top five just behind holidays/travel, internet jobsites are one of the main contributing factors why the sales of newspapers have declined more than 750 million copies per year since the mid 1980's when we opened our 1st Bookshop in Garforth Leeds. Recent research shows that recruiters today prefer niche jobsites, rather than national ones, as these return better results - one of the reasons why now more than 70% of all East Yorkshire businesses have already had recruitment adverts featured on our job sites since launch. This includes one of the region's larger employers Ebuyer incorporating Wren Kitchens.

East Yorkshire Jobs: Bridjobs was created specifically to cater to the needs of the growing local population in this new millennium and to help improve the prosperity of the area. Towns surrounding Bridlington are also now benefiting too, as they have very quickly become the preferred recruitment portal for the whole East Riding region. This initiative was rebranded in 2006 as eastyorkshirejobs.com

What was once the traditional way of promoting employment opportunities for the town and the region is no more - recruiting via the internet is the future, recruiting good staff with your local jobsite is the present. No other medium gives you access to the majority of current jobs in Bridlington, a very large selection of all the jobs in East Yorkshire at this time, plus every single job currently on offer at East Riding Of Yorkshire Council. Because of this, many in the area involved with recruitment, refer to Bridjobs regularly - including Job Centre Plus.

Today the partnership owns and manages between them around 70 unique domains, the first and most well established being firstbookshop.com founded by and today still overseen by, Roger Crossland a Bookseller since 1974. As the first Bookshop in the world to retail and redeem National Book Tokens online, the service was expanded to offer Theatre Tokens online - nationwide theatre vouchers - and now both gift cards are sold under the well recognised brand of tokenline.co.uk freepost within Great Britain & Ireland. December 2014 Martin Crossland was key to opening the first office for an exciting original Charity venture in Derry, County Londonderry, his idea and the first of its kind for the region. This operates independently from everything else, being registered with and launched in conjunction with the new Charity Commission Northern Ireland, for which today he is Chair.

Our very latest web domain going live for retailing in 2016 was one from the suffix of the next generation: bookshop.website

2017 we acquired for future development: northyorkshirejobs.co.uk and southyorkshirejobs.co.uk plus westyorkshirejobs.co.uk
