OPERATIONS MASTERMIND: The Power in Having a Lean Team

Thursday, October 23, 6:00am - 7:00am (EDT)

Time shown in-04:00 America, New York

Jake Cawdery thought growth meant more - more people, more process, more complexity. But at Curated, that mindset eventually hit a ceiling: £1.2m in revenue, year after year. “Every year we'd set the ambition to grow,” he says. “But each year we'd stay still. Ultimately, we realised we couldn't keep working the same way.”

So they stopped chasing scale - and started chasing impact. Jake and his team took a hard look at how they were working, and made bold changes: trimming the team into a leaner structure, leaning into automation and AI, and building a hybrid talent model that flexes to each client’s needs.

The result? A more efficient agency, with £134k revenue per head - and a culture focused on outcomes, not overhead. If you’re feeling the pressure to grow, or wondering whether your agency structure is really working for you - this is the session for you.
