  • #8: Green Shoots...
    Dec 16 2024

    In our final episode for season 1 of 'scouted. the Podcast', the team reflect on a tumultuous 2024 and its impact on both the property and recruitment industries. NJ, JK and producer Hannah, recap their conversations with their unforgettable guests: Myron - whose charisma sparked connections across the industry; Bec - whose insights bridged all sides of the recruitment equation: and Dan - who delved deep into leadership and the importance of team culture. The team talk industry trends, their outlook for the next year ahead, and engage in a candid (as always) debate about flexible work, generational differences, evolving workplace expectations and how to adapt to modern workplace dynamics. We hope you have enjoyed listening to us this year as the scouted. team are very much looking forward to entertaining and informing you all just a little more with season 2 in 2025 - where we promise fresh insights, engaging guests, and perhaps, a side of hot wings!

  • #7: An appetite for risk...
    Nov 11 2024

    Episode 7 here we are! Joining JK & NJ today is Daniel Peterson - CEO of the IBN Group, which consists of iBuyNew & iBuildNew: two online platforms that are transforming the property industry. In this episode Dan takes us back to the beginning of his impressive professional career, working as a Manager in the Corporate Advisory Team at PWC in London, before a decade long tenure with Shell Oil. Dan discusses with us his journey at Shell, the culture of loyalty and the learning & development opportunities he was fortunate to experience during this time. We delve in to Dan's feelings on change and risk, how the IBN Group came to be, and we also quiz Dan about his predictions for the current state of the Property Market. We do get a little sidetracked with a some Football chat in this one - but it relates to the cause, we promise!


    Below you will find links to the iBuyNew & iBuildNew websites, as well as a link to Dan's recent webinar 'Learn How to Invest in NDIS Properties'.

  • #6: You're killing it girl!
    Sep 16 2024

    Joining J.K & N.J today for episode 6 of 'scouted. the Podcast' is Bec Efthim, Head of People and Performance at South Haven Group. Bec recounts with the team her career journey, covering her start in property as an Executive Assistant, to moving into Operations for recruitment firms SHK and Carmichael Fisher, to then transitioning into her internal role at South Haven. With these experiences, Bec brings such an interesting and insightful take to the recruitment topic, and we absolutely loved having her on to answer some pretty divisive questions for us.

    From managing performance processes to facilitating company culture - Bec and the team hone in on the importance of placing relationships at the forefront of every recruitment strategy. Along the way, we also dive into topics like 'Internal vs. Agency Recruitment' and 'Advice for Aspiring Recruiters'. This episode is full of laughs but equally full of some top-tier guidance on building a fulfilling and rewarding career in both recruitment and the property industry.
