What genuinely drives value in a recruitment business?

In panel 2 of the Recruiter Startup Podcast live show in Sydney, our host Dualta is joined by two industry leaders with deep insight into building, scaling, and selling agencies.

Paul Masters is the founder of Sovereign Private, a specialist advisory and M&A firm for recruitment businesses, having worked on multiple high-value agency transactions and growth strategies.

Darragh Everard is Managing Director of The Anderson Partnership, an international recruitment business he has helped scale across multiple markets through strong leadership and commercial execution.

Together, they unpack the realities behind agency performance today, such as what buyers look for when acquiring recruitment companies, how profitability, niche focus, and leadership impact valuation, the difference between growing revenue and building a valuable business and market trends.
