James is joined by Dave Jenkins, CEO and Founder of Wave, who has spent 25 years building recruitment websites and watching them evolve from simple brochure sites to powerful marketing and tech platforms.

We get into the future of the recruitment website, the impact of AI, candidate experience, and why your site should be your hardest-working asset, not just something that sits online looking pretty.

Dave Jenkins Profile Photo

CEO

Dave Jenkins founded Wave in 1999, a business that has undergone a number of metamorphoses. Wave began as a first of its kind, the only online recruitment media buying business in the UK, but quickly expanded offline into more traditional lines of recruitment. The business grew steadily until the credit crunch during 2008 where a major restructure saw Wave move into the creative and recruitment marketing industry.

Today, Wave is a leader in candidate attraction technology. With a mission to create a world in which talent is never missed, Wave’s all-one-one candidate attraction solution offers three products to help recruiters find and attract high calibre candidates as well as engage new clients. WaveTrackR enables recruiters to quickly and easily source more candidates, WaveSites powers high-performing recruitment websites, and WaveMedia helps recruitment agencies to get the most out of their job board contracts.

As Founder and CEO, Dave’s decades of experience and expertise in the recruitment industry, combined with steadfast ambition and a belief that any obstacle can be overcome, has driven Wave to become the go-to company for candidate attraction technology. As a result, Dave shares his insights as a speaker at various recruitment events and hosts recruitment networking events with expert panels, all to help recruitment industry professionals to find the very best candidates for their jobs in any market.
