It's National Career Week, SuperM founders, Tom and Charlie share their career paths...

Tom

15 years in Reverse Logistics led to the inspiration behind RL People - the leading recruitment company specialising in a niche market. Continually intrigued in health and fitness, Tom's lockdown research into microdosing led to the fascination of the health benefits behind functional mushrooms and so, the concept behind SuperM.

Working (in recruitment) alongside highly motivated individuals, who are always looking for a performance edge, was the catalyst to launch the brand.

 

Charlie

A-levels were rough for me. Not because I didn’t care, but because I just couldn’t focus. No matter how hard I tried, revision never seemed to stick, and the whole process felt like a grind with no real payoff. By the time exams were over, I’d had enough of education—I wanted to do something real.

At first, I thought about heading straight into work, maybe something in the city. But after a short time, I realized that lifestyle wasn’t for me either. Sitting in an office, pushing papers? Nah. I wanted something I actually cared about.

That’s when SuperM came into the picture. The opportunity was there, and it just made sense. It wasn’t just about business—it was something I believed in. So instead of going down the "safe" uni route, I jumped into building something of my own.

No regrets.
