Send us a textWelcome back to scalr sagecast.This week, I’m joined by Martyn Hill - award-winning recruiter, startup founder and community leader with deep roots in WA’s mining and blue-collar space.Martyn’s had a huge year. He’s won multiple industry awards (including RCSA Recruitment Professional of the Year 2024), launched Refereez - a smart, human-led reference checking platform - and somehow still finds time to coach jobseekers, support fellow recruiters, and champion the community through Rubberband and the RCSA.In this episode, we unpack:The lessons Martyn’s learned from over a decade of high-volume mining recruitmentWhy he built Refereez - and what he thinks is broken with traditional reference checkingThe power of community and vulnerability in an industry that often pretends to have it all togetherAnd how to balance ambition with impact in both agency and startup lifeMartyn brings heart, humility, and serious hustle to everything he does - and this one’s packed with takeaways whether you’re in recruitment, running a business, or trying to do work that actually means something.The scalr sagecast is proudly brought to you by scalr, a recruitment and talent advisory business headquartered in Melbourne, Australia.
