More Placements. Better Margins. The Global Talent Opportunity Most Agencies Are Missing.
Agencies that continue sourcing only from local markets are not just limiting their candidate pools, they are limiting their revenue, their client value, and their long-term competitive position. The question is no longer whether global talent sourcing belongs in your business model. It is how quickly you can make it work.
In this session, Ross Stewart - CEO of Global Careers Africa - explores what it takes to add global candidates to your shortlists with confidence: what verification and vetting actually looks like, how compliance and employer of record arrangements protect your reputation, and what the commercial model means for your margins. Featuring real-world case studies from agencies already doing this at scale.
