This week I’m joined by Zeth and Shaun - founders from Plexus Resourcing. Both have had stellar careers in recruitment and worked together at G2, before joining forces to create their own consultancy. This podcast covers a lot of interesting touchpoints such as scaling a business, implementing a delivery model alongside consultants as well as developing their niche. For recruiters who are wanting to learn more about scaling a business (revenue and headcount) then this one’s for you.For the junior consultants out there, this is an excellent podcast to learn more about the types of options that are out there for delivery focussed roles, especially if you are looking to take a step away from BD.
