    Ed Talks to Josh Rayner, Owner of Rayner Personnel⁩... Property Recruitment Expert, Irrepressible & ‘Old beyond His years’

    'Is it the people coming into the agency that are changing it, or the other way round?' is this episode of Ed Talk's hot topic! In this episode: Ed's guest Josh Rayner began his recruitment career at the young age of 17 and really hustled and worked his way to the top. Having dabbled in estate agency for a brief period, then a large recruitment agency, he left and began building up his own business. Rayners Personnel is now a successful franchise business, working with the 'super brands' to one-off independents. Josh brings great energy to this chat with Ed. He is full of interesting stats and insights (did you know that someone changes their job in the property sector every 18 months?!) and he has some excellent advice when it comes to recruitment... like, really, how important are your social media profiles when it comes to employment? Enjoy!
