Scaling smarter in a shifting market

Rivkin Securities is a leading Australian financial services firm providing wealth-building investment strategies and market guidance to individuals nationwide. In early 2020, as the market shifted and client expectations rose, Rivkin hit an inflection point — they had to scale operations quickly without losing control over service quality.

The Challenge

A limited local talent pool and growing delivery pressure made it harder to recruit and retain the right people onshore. The firm needed a way to build capacity that did not mean compromising on quality, overextending their internal team, or slowing down growth.

The Solution

Rivkin was not looking for a vendor to plug gaps — they wanted a strategic partner that could help them scale more agilely. Bettersource brought in its insourcing model: a remote-first team of high-calibre professionals integrated fully into the business.

They were not outsourced contractors. The Bettersource team joined daily meetings, followed internal processes, and worked to the same standard as Rivkin’s in-house staff — with one key difference: lower overhead and faster deployment.

We weren’t just looking for a hole to fill, we were looking for a smarter way to grow. Bettersource gave us both flexibility and accountability.

The Outcome

Today the Bettersource team is embedded across the business — finance, client services, sales, marketing. With Bettersource’s support, Rivkin has:

  • Increased productivity and delivery speed
  • Held service quality to onshore standards
  • Reduced cost and gained greater operational flexibility
  • Built long-term internal capability without recruitment bottlenecks

More than a vendor, a strategic asset

What set Bettersource apart was not the talent alone, it was the hands-on approach to performance management, cultural integration, and partnership. The relationship has grown from simple team support into a strategic layer of operational capability.

Their team became part of the family. It’s been a game changer for us.

Bettersource isn’t just an option, it’s a strategic asset. They’ve changed the way we work and it’s the best business decision we’ve made in years.
