Episode description

I'm pleased to welcome back Alex Elliott to the Recruiter Startup Podcast. Alex has joined me a few times before, but this episode is particularly noteworthy. On this episode, he is interviewed by me and my co-host, Andy Hallett, as part of our NED interviews series. As many of you know, Alex co-founded Liquid Personnel and, within a decade, grew it to a turnover of £100 million, making it the market leader before its significant PE sale exit.

In our discussion, we tackle the strategic considerations of diversifying business assets and the potential challenges and opportunities AI presents in recruitment. Alex shares his perspective on the value of understanding individual histories as predictors of future actions. We also reflect on industry shifts, drawing comparisons with the 2008 downturn, and discuss the increasing software costs faced by today's businesses. This one is not to be missed!
