Season 7 | Ep33 Chris Abbass on growing from £9m to over £30m in NFI in less than 4 years!
Manage episode 409094192 series 2587523
I am so excited to be rejoined by Chriss Abbass, the CEO of Talentful, four years after our first episode together.
For those who don’t know, Talentful is the world's leading embedded talent recruitment solution, working with some of the best tech companies on the planet.
I had Chris in my studio in London back in 2019. At the time, his business was 4 years old and had already grown to 150 people and £9 million in net margin.
Today, another 4 years have passed, and their last company account was over £30 million!
In this episode, Chris and I discussed
- How Talentful has grown in headcount with offices across Europe and the US
- Navigating uncertainties and building creative strategies to win more business
- The boom in revenue and growth they experienced in 2021 and 2022
- Why a focus on recruiting and talent advisory services and learning from mistakes is key to improving your business
- Learnings from their expansion into key markets like San Francisco
- The power of flexibility when it comes to terms and pricing
- How starting in an agency environment can give professionals an advantage when transitioning to in-house roles
- A realistic picture of the US talent market compared to Europe
- What’s in store for Talentful’s future, including embedded services, a thriving global community, and technology for matching talent and teams
I personally learned so much from this conversation, hearing about the journey of one of the most innovative and cutting-edge recruitment agencies out there. I hope you love it too!
