£4M Pipeline, 9 Recruitment Companies: Inside the Outbound System at We Have a Meeting with Zac & Jack

Recruitment Mentors PodcastMonday, July 20, 2026

Show Notes

In this episode, I sit down with Zac and Jack from We Have a Meeting to unpack how their done-for-you outbound service has generated over £4M in live pipeline for 9 recruitment companies in the last 12 months, without relying on candidate flips or any of the usual recruiter BD tactics. We dive into their full outbound system: how they build and enrich data before a single call is made, the VAR process that quality-checks every meeting booked, and the "Trojan Horse" strategy they use to break into markets they've never worked in before.

From 8 to 34 People in 18 Months: Hubscale’s Road to £7M with Elliot White

In this episode, I sit down with Elliott White, founder of Hubscale, for his second appearance on the pod. When we last spoke in February 2025, Hubscale had 8 people. Eighteen months on, it has 34 across Manchester, Austin and London, is on track for £7M this year, and is aiming for £50M by 2030. We get into why he hires the leader before the team, the fee-split model behind nearly half of Hubscale’s revenue, and why he’s earning less now than at any point in his recruitment career.

£1.5M in Year One, Self-Funded: Inside Blue Fox with Jonathan & Victoria

In this episode, I sit down with Jon and Vic, co-founders of Blue Fox, a self-funded recruitment business in mission critical construction that did £1.5M in revenue in its first year. They had their first perm deal done within three weeks, and they ran Blue Fox like a proper business from day one, with a detailed business plan, SOPs for everything and quarterly OKRs. We get into why their first hire was a contractor care manager rather than a salesperson, how the 70/30 vertical rule brought their billings back after a dip, and why £1.5M in revenue is not £1.5M in the bank.
