Recruitment Entrepreneur is one of the most successful private equity investors in recruitment start-ups. We typically invest $300k in a new portfolio partner; this investment enables the business to rapidly scale and build something of true value.

The ultimate objective of partnering with Recruitment Entrepreneur is to build a successful business and achieve a profitable exit.

 

How long does it take to repay my initial investment?

Recruitment Entrepreneur invests alongside the founders in any business venture. Our model ensures all founding entrepreneurs have the opportunity to repay their investment before a realization event, in the most tax-efficient way. Investments are in the form of loans that are paid back when cash flow in the business allows, which is typically within year two of operation, and are fully repaid between years two and four.

 

As a shareholder do I receive dividends?

Recruitment Entrepreneur enables all founding partners to maximize their incomes to create a good quality of life while building their businesses. As soon as the initial investment has been repaid and the company is profitable dividends start to be paid. Dividends are paid out of any free cash flow in the business that isn’t needed to fund future growth. Ongoing dividends are paid out in accordance with company performance and future profitability.

On average, our portfolio partners begin to receive dividend payments in year three, however, this is variable and dependent on a businesses’ individual performance.
