In this episode of RecTalk, host Nitin Sharma sits down with Alex Elliott—a successfully exited founder, investor, and NED in recruitment—to discuss a critical shift in recruitment business strategy: scaling for sustainability vs. scaling for sale.
🚀 Many recruitment agency owners chase rapid growth with an eye on exit, but what if the real key to long-term success lies in profit, process, and longevity rather than high-volume expansion? Alex shares his formula for a truly valuable business, where getting the right processes in place makes your agency a stronger, more sellable proposition than just stacking up billers.
🔹 Key Takeaways:
✅ Why scaling back can lead to higher profitability
✅ How to build a recruitment agency with longevity in mind
✅ The process-first approach that makes businesses more sellable
✅ How recruitment founders can shift their mindset from fast growth to sustainable success
If you're a recruitment agency owner thinking about scaling, selling, or simply surviving, this episode is for you!
