Laura Clark describes herself as a ‘business owner on a mission’ and she certainly is!

As Group CEO of OA (Osborne Appointments) Laura has taken a typical ‘local’ agency and driven it forward to become a formidable entity as both a recruitment agency and outsource partner via the OA Solutions division.

Why is Laura so unique?

Her focus, drive, energy, and vision for her business and team ‘off the scale’ and she makes things happen every day, not afraid to challenge outdated practices but respectful of having solid cultural and business foundations.

In the podcast, we discuss a range of issues that confront other owners & leaders and debate the balance between making change and sticking with the ‘basics’
What makes Laura even more remarkable is the fact she is a busy mother of four and has recently been made a board member of the REC, giving back to the sector at an industry level.

Sarah began her career ‘at the desk’ like many recruiters but has continuously developed her knowledge, skills, and experience across outsourced services, technology, and workforce strategy.

She has worked at the highest levels with large global organisations formulating their talent strategies with the appropriate blend of people and technology resulting in material and positive changes to the way they work, operate, and perform.

Sarah will share her journey including the obstacles she has encountered and how she managed to overcome challenges and adapt to new ways of thinking in a global talent and technology community.

Her style is energising and she will openly share her views and perspectives on many of the challenges all recruiters face.

Julie and Haydon Warner are champion dance partners, successful business partners, and life partners – how do they make that work and how do they excel on so many fronts simultaneously?

Julie has followed a fairly standard recruitment career path having spent almost 15 years with large national and international recruitment firms cutting her teeth on traditional processes, hard-wired KPI’s, and the edgy environment you expect from highly competitive market leaders.

Haydon on the other hand had a highly successful career in industrial automation culminating in him becoming the UK Managing Director. 

His non-recruitment experience gives him a deeper understanding of customer expectations and the need to be agile whilst he has an appreciation for the importance of marketing, branding, and technology.

In this podcast we will discuss the ‘perfect storm’ of the traditional recruitment process combined with non-sector ‘best practice’ to form a well-balanced business that has built its foundations on personal and company brands, linking to the fact that customers want to feel attached to their recruitment partners.

It’s a fascinating story that is a long way from finished!

Sara has led the way for women in traditionally male-dominated environments throughout her career having been in a range of executive HR roles culminating in her role at the boardroom table of Chelsea Football Club. She has never taken the ‘easy road’ and has pioneered key ‘people’ initiatives and transformational change throughout her career including the critical area of Diversity and Inclusion.

As founder of her own consulting business, ODISEE, Sara continues to educate, inspire, inform and change organisations in the world of sport, entertainment and education. Her practical and pragmatic approach to business and the solutions required to make material change are inspiring and reinforce the fact that people with vision and drive ‘get stuff done!’
