Overview

This event is a 45-minute interactive, roundtable discussion about the lessons we learned from those micros / start up recruitment businesses that have gone on to create something that is both scaling whilst at the same time maintaining their levels of profitability, led by James Osborne of The Recruitment Network.

About this session

There is a reason why so many small but aspirational recruitment businesses find it so difficult to scale up. But there is a blueprint of how to do it right.

In this session we will be exploring the lessons learned from recruitment businesses that have gone on to create something that is both scalable whilst at the same time maintaining their levels of profitability.

This is about asking the right questions of the business, such as:

What are the stages of development in a typical recruitment growth story?

What does my business need to be better at in order to grow?

What structures work best for scaling?

What people do I need around me (critical hires)?

How should my tech stack look in order to fast-track growth?

How do I manage cash and profitability, whilst investing in tomorrow?

What should an early-stage recruitment business’s budget and P&L look like?
