It\u2019s mission \u201cto create Australia\u2019s first super boutique\u201d is simple but daring. I recently had the opportunity to speak wi<\/span>th Simon Meyer, CEO and Co-Founder at FutureYou, who shared some insights on what it\u2019s taken to kick-start the company and turn it into\u00a0one of the fastest-growing recruitment firms in Australia.<\/p>\n<p><b>Sally Wong [SW]: Tell us about the unique origins of your company?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Simon Meyer [SM]:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> FutureYou was founded on the idea that the Australian recruitment market had really polarised. It was a situation where there were major players that were multinationals, boutique players, and Australian privately-owned companies that had a relatively small footprint.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FutureYou believed there had to be a better way to connect talent in Australia. What we wanted to create was Australia\u2019s first super boutique, which combined the depths of experience in boutique firms but with the size and scale of the major recruitment firms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>SW: What\u2019s your focus in the recruitment industry? In which area is your company most passionate?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>SM:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> We\u2019re in the executive recruitment space, but the unique thing about FutureYou is the breadth of our job types. We cover more than 12 different job type families across the Australian marketplace. We do a heavy amount of work each quarter in both Sydney and Melbourne, which is the largest market for our space. Our specialisation is the geography we cover, where we aim to support the major Australian employment market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>SW: How did you come up with the purpose statement \u201cthe power to connect without limitations\u201d? What does this mean to you and the company?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>SM:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> How we came up with our purpose statement was centered around the fact that the recruiters in the market are often limited by the way their organisations operate. We wanted to remove all those barriers because with those in place, recruiters are transactional. Without those in place, recruiters can genuinely connect with people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We engaged with many brand gurus in the Australian market that helped us build our company\u2019s brand. Once we had the brand, it was easy to work through what the purpose of the brand was.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FutureYou is not about recruitment. It&#8217;s about connecting great people. The primary reason we exist and why we consult is to create a level of advocacy and connectivity, and put great people together and everything tends to flow from there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>SW: What sets apart a candidate\u2019s experience with your agency from another?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>SM: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019re constantly seeking insights. We don\u2019t start a conversation with a candidate with generic statements. We start with focusing on the challenges the candidate is facing. We apply a problem and solutions-focused mindset.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When we\u2019re with the candidate, we\u2019re in a conscious state and we\u2019re trying to understand, beyond the job requirement from a values perspective, what are the types of organisations they want to align with. What we\u2019ve found is that candidates are looking to work with a business that shares the same values as themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>SW: What changes do you see happening in the industry and how is FutureYou helping to drive them?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>SM:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Firstly, the Australian recruitment industry has always been more relationship-oriented than the UK or the US. I&#8217;ve seen it accelerate over the last two to three years. In terms of Sydney and Melbourne, it\u2019s a lot around who you know and not what you know. Unless you\u2019ve put the time in to curate your network and have a strong degree of advocacy operating for your company, it&#8217;s getting tougher and tougher.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Secondly, the transactional nature of executive recruitment is almost completely gone. That&#8217;s why the major players are finding it challenging because they tend to do a lot of recruitment over the phone. The thing I like about this market is that there\u2019s a level of genuine authenticity here. Recruitment is more and more about the face-to-face relationship. That\u2019s the future\u2014people getting out of office and doing more work. With technology and systems getting better and better, we\u2019re able to do less administrative tasks and be more relationship-driven and hands on with candidates and clients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>SW: What challenges do you expect to face in the future?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>SM:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Emerging companies often face a lot of criticism. FutureYou is here to disrupt and one challenge we have to overcome is the negativity from those who don\u2019t like that disruption. Some competitors lack a sense of fair play, for a variety of reasons, and although their behavior comes from a place of fear, it can be challenging.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another challenge we face is managing and supporting our strong growth over the last couple of years. Our headcount growth has been tremendously strong and trying to find a home and office for FutureYou has been quite challenging.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But I think the biggest challenge a start-up company faces is funding. That\u2019s a huge hindrance to the growth of many start-ups and it\u2019s unfortunate to see so many great ideas struggle to scale because of funding difficulties.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of business processes, we thought a lot about the integration of our technology\u2014how we would integrate with LinkedIn, Seek, and how we would build a strong level of data integrity. The unique thing about FutureYou is the size of our dataset. The challenge and opportunity at the same time is getting the data integrity right in the first place. We put a lot of emphasis on that and train staff accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>SW: If you could pinpoint two things that most directly contribute to your company\u2019s growth, what would they be and why?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>SM:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The team at FutureYou is second to none in the sector. At the heart of our success is inspirational leadership and a really can-do attitude from the group. Everyone is really active in terms of what they know and how they bring value to their networks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second thing is formulating the right purpose and values framework for everyone to clearly understand what it means to be a FutureYou-er. It&#8217;s having a mantra. When you&#8217;ve been in an organisation for a long time, it&#8217;s easy, but when you\u2019re doing something from scratch, it\u2019s harder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inspirational leadership and getting the values and purpose framework set-up were the two most important things that have contributed to our success.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking to start your own recruitment agency?
