October 98- May 99 definITive Owner/Director £65,000
I set up definitive with a colleague in the recruitment industry. Without financial backing and working from a Midlands base, we were unable to maintain the company. Because of this the company was closed and ceased to trade.
Given all of the financial constraints and being one of the many new agencies vying for business, we were still able to place IT professionals into Blue chip companies.
Sole supplier status was built up with four companies and we were able to become preferred supplier with many IT companies.
This was a tremendous experience as it allowed me to see how recruitment was beginning to change and that to set up an agency in a saturated market needed not only tenacity, and hard work, but required a robust back office function and funding.
