The Financial Education That Turns Recruiters Into Asset Millionaires with Kevin Fasting

In this episode, I sit down with Kevin Fasting, founder of Kevin Edward and Kerv Capital, who's built a group of 13+ recruitment JVs alongside a law firm, an FCA-regulated financial services brokerage, and a 70+ unit property portfolio, all while turning the founders he's backed into asset millionaires. We get into the financial education most people in recruitment never get, why earning good money is the easy part, and what Kevin did differently to make it compound.

High Performance, High Reward: Sue White's Blueprint for Doubling Productivity at LHi London

In this episode, I sit down with Sue White, Head of LHI London, to unpack how she went from nearly quitting recruitment at 25 to leading a 12-person leadership team and doubling per-head productivity across the business. We trace her path from inheriting a broken two-person Piper Maddox team, to landing a £150k retainer that became a £700k project, to being handed the keys to LHI London and turning complacency into a high-performance, high-reward culture.

In this episode, I sit down with Jay Massey, founder of Four Five Partners, to unpack the honest, unfiltered version of building a recruitment business from scratch.

Only 10% of Recruiters Survive What's Coming: The Barbell Theory Reshaping Hiring with Craig Whiting

In this episode, I sit down with Craig Whiting, co-founder of RLS Search, who has spent 18 years placing technologists into hedge funds and now bills £2.5M off four clients with a team of three. We get into why he believes 70% of recruitment companies will be gone within two years, and why only the top 10% of recruiters survive what AI is doing to the market. We cover the knowledge advantage that replaced business development entirely, the June 2024 reset from 14 people back to 3, and the process that takes his team to a 93% offer-to-placement ratio.
