Building a high-value recruitment business

A roadmap to building a highly profitable, sustainable, and resilient asset that will create a strong exit valuation.

The UK recruitment and staffing industry is a goliath with sales of £43 billion in 2021. There are over 30,000 recruitment agencies in the UK, but 80% are micro-businesses with less than ten employees. 82% of all UK recruitment agencies have a turnover of less than £1 million per annum

This is not bad; these businesses can provide the owners with a solid living.

However, they are not sustainable and have no asset value. So, in most cases, they cannot be sold and only operate if the owner(s) are working in the business full-time.

Based on his experience of building three separate recruitment businesses to over $100 million (AUD) in sales and successful exits, including an IPO and a very high multiple trade sale, these sessions from Greg Savage will give you a road map to building a sustainable, highly profitable, enormously resilient high-value recruitment business that will allow a lucrative exit when the time is right.

Greg is on the Board of 16 recruitment companies right now, and all of them are on a growth and exit path, so the content is based on hard-won experience over many years, as well as current insights gleaned from the efforts of owners working in the current market.
