Agency owners, directors and leaders deciding what to automate
Recruitment businesses founded by Greg Savage across four decades, one of them taken to IPO. This session puts that experience next to someone building AI for agencies today, to separate what has changed from what never will.

A live, open conversation between a recruiter who has founded four agencies and a founder building AI for them. They agree on more than you might expect, and where they don't, they'll say so.
Can be automated is not a reason to automate
The hype against the reality of AI in agencies, what is at risk for owners who get their response wrong, and how to buy AI without getting burned.
Why mass AI outreach defeats itself
Scale against authenticity, content built on real expertise for a small niche audience, and why events, lunches and rooms of clients still beat the inbox.
Warm, not cold
Lapsed top clients, strong candidates who got jobs elsewhere, former temps now in hiring roles. AI builds the list and finds the people. The recruiter makes the call.
Fees, skills and who you hire next
Which business models are under pressure, how to hold your fees when part of the work is automated, and what recruiters should do with the time AI gives back.

Own or run a recruitment agency
Are deciding where AI fits in your business
Lead recruiters whose roles are changing
Want to hold your fees as more of the work is automated
