I’m thrilled to have Kevin Frater join me for the first episode of Season 7 of The RAG Podcast! I usually interview founders and leaders of recruitment firms on the show, but this week we’re interviewing our first unemployed guest. Kevin is an absolute legend!He was part of the Frank Recruitment Group (FRG) for over 10 years and left in January of 2023. He started off in a role where he was doing client development, having spent four and a half years with the Allegis Group.He soon became the fixer. This guy would go to different offices and effectively turn them around.He started in London, then went to Singapore, and then he spent six years in Germany where he walked into a team of 12 recruiters and six years later left with over 180 staff, with one of the highest performing teams in FRG globally. He went through two events with the business where he realised some wealth and he finished up at the start of this year to take some time out before starting his next opportunity. In this episode we talk about:🎙️ Turning around underperforming sales or recruitment teams🎙️ Kevin’s ability to let others do the hard work, but what it took to be a true leader behind the scenes so that people could flourish🎙️ The personal and professional challenges of international travel, and balancing everything in between.🎙️ Rapid growth and what it takes to go from 12 to 180 staff in six yearsIf you’re a recruitment manager or recruiter that wants to get into recruitment management and grow your career by being behind the scenes, this is gonna be an amazing episode. And if you’re a recruitment business in need of a recruitment director, someone who's going to run the business, take on international operations, and drive a really scalable, repeatable model then again, listen to this conversation, because he might be your guy! (And if he isn't your guy, he's going teach you a lot in the process :) )HoxoAre you spending hours on LinkedIn and cold outreach and want more business coming to you over your competition? Well, if you're the founder or leader of a recruitment agency, here's what we can do for you at Hoxo. We’ll give you the training, support, and resources to help you stand out from the competition and reach over 25,000 relevant people and drive daily inbound leads on Linkedin in 6 weeks - and if you don't perform, you don't pay. Now, how can we make such a bold, results-driven promise like this? 2 reasons:1. Whilst I've been building the RAG podcast, we've actually done what we say will do for our clients in less than two years. We actually built a business generating from zero to over 1 million views per month on LinkedIn leading to multimillion pound revenues with a sales team of me plus two people without making a single outbound call.2. Second is our track record. Not only have we done it ourselves, but we've helped over 350 agencies and over 4,700 consultants do it as well, all in the last three years.
