#64 Tom Hunter - Managing Director Australia @ Edward Mann
Feb 22, 2024 Season 2 Episode 23

In this episode I'm joined by Tom Hunter, Managing Director  Australia of leading accounting recruitment company Edward Mann.

Tom, like me is a long time recruitment veteran, and again similar to myself has been with his company in the recruitment game for over 7 years now. 

In this epsiode expect to learn :

  • The current state of the accounting job market in Australia
  • What the role of a MD of a recruitment firm looks like day to day
  • How Tom progressed through the ranks
  • Advice to recruiters looking to transition into managment roles
  • What he believes his strengths are and also areas to improve
  • How working in recruitment in the UK compares to Australia
  • What the future holds for him and his company

Really enjoyed talking to Tom and felt a lot of synergies between mine and his journey. Most valubale lessons I got from Tom were around how he balances the day to day of filling roles with leading a team and running the business. 

I also really enjoyed hearing about his experiences cutting his teeth in the recruitment world in his time in London and how foundly he talks about those memories.

Big things ahead for Tom and Edward Mann in Australia. Check him out below :
