Elliott Manning hosts The Search Podcast: the place to go for recruitment-to-recruitment content and insights from industry leaders.

Elliott is the Managing Director at Kayman Recruitment: specialists in recruitment-to-recruitment, sales and graduate roles.

Get to know more about Louise Archer, founder of Retrained Search, how she fell out of love with contingent recruitment, mainly down to the pressure of KPIs, sending volume CVs and calls.

Louise witnessed first-hand how retained shifts client relationships and the way projects are delivered. Could you move your business from contingent to retained?

Louise and Elliott talk about the change in fill rates from 25% contingent to 97% retained, what it takes to deliver retained and how to make it sustainable for your company- and when not to take on retained assignments.
