Welcome to Season Three of The Recruitment and Beyond Podcast!
In this opening episode, host Ewan Anderson, Marketing Director at Eden Scott, sits down with Graham Clarke, an experienced leadership coach who has worked with some of the world’s most recognised brands, including Mars, Diageo, and Britvic. Together, they dive into one of the most critical yet often overlooked aspects of business success: succession planning.

Why does succession planning matter? What happens when a key team member leaves, or gets promoted, and there’s no plan in place? Graham shares practical insights drawn from decades of experience, highlighting the ripple effects poor planning can have on performance, morale, and growth. You’ll learn why succession planning isn’t just about replacing roles, but about building resilience, fostering potential, and aligning talent strategy with long-term business goals.

Listeners will take away actionable steps for creating a proactive succession strategy, tips for identifying future leaders, and how HR can play a pivotal role in bridging performance and potential. Whether you’re scaling fast or navigating uncertain times, this episode offers a roadmap to keep your business agile, engaged, and ready for the future.
