Ep7: 30 Minutes with Elaine Tyler - How the Landscape of the Recruitment Market & the SaaS Market is Evolving
Description
Welcome back to The Recruitment Entrepreneur Podcast. In this episode, we are joined by Venatrix's CEO and Founder, Elaine Tyler.
After graduating from Leeds University in 2008, studying business management, Elaine knew she wanted to do something business-based and customer-focused and became a recruiter within the sales industry.
In 2015, Elaine saw a gap in the market to focus on SDR recruitment into leading SaaS firms and then had the opportunity to pitch her business ideas to Recruitment Entrepreneur's Chairman, James Caan CBE.
Venatrix has been a partner of Recruitment Entrepreneur for almost 8 years and is London's leading provider of SDR candidates to fast-growth SaaS companies.
In this episode, Elaine takes us through how the landscape of the recruitment market and the SaaS market is evolving.
