🚀 You’ll get some excellent insight on the importance of investing in mid-level managers and how it impacts your wider growth strategy
🚀 Caring about client relationships and why recruitment shouldn’t be transactional
🚀 How to maximise potential out of each consultant, especially if you’re a manager/leader

This week I’m joined by Rory Ferguson, a self-employed Interim consultant with over 25 years of recruitment experience.
He started working in recruitment in the 90s at the infamous Harvey Nash, before working for some of the best-known brands such as Petroplan and Hydrogen.
It was great to sit down with him and talk about his tenure as a recruiter as well as diving into culture, progression and scaling a recruitment business.
