James Reed: all about business · 75. How to calculate what you're worth in the job market | Leanne Appleton · 20 Apr 2026 podcast

Absolutely.

Very much short supply.

Even my bread and butter business, I face support roles, for example.

You still have five CVs to every job and it'll be filled pretty instantly.

Everyone's chomping at the bit now for that kind of caliber because they are the backbone of any thriving IFA business.

And because those candidates know they're in demand, they feel that they can warrant a higher salary expectation when actually that's not reality.

There's some corporate businesses that have very strict structure of...

salary levels and there's other smaller IFA businesses actually a bit more agile and can be flexible and be accommodating but we need to know where that is about that kind of skill and what's scarce and what's in demand and the trends and that way we can warrant more of a premium pay.

They do.

Absolutely.

No, absolutely.

I work with an array of businesses in my industry.

I work with your corporate that are very regimented and structured in terms of what they can offer.

Smaller outfits, you're talking to the man that holds or the woman that holds their purse strings.

So they've got flexibility.

They know that there is an absolute need and this is a sense of urgency in the business and it's a real requirement.

they will pay over the odds, as they may think, to get that Can's Day attraction in.

But actually what they're going to get is a really good solid candidate that's going to deliver with what they want and hopefully reap the rewards and add that instant value.

Very much so.

I think what's really, really important as a recruiter and speaking to candidates and clients alike is making sure that at the very beginning, we're setting the scene and managing expectations.
