Justin Basini: Co-Founder & Group CEO of The ClearScore Group

Author: Bauer Media May 3, 2025 Duration: 26:58

Justin Basini is the Co-Founder & Group CEO of The ClearScore Group, a technology business helping users understand and manage their credit and finances. Justin joins Elliot to share the personal toll of trying to maintain his dotcom business as the markets crashed, and how the experience helped him grow his 3rd company (a mission-driven business)  that's now helping over 23 million people on four continents.


There’s a certain rhythm to building something remarkable, a kind of improvisation within a framework of discipline and vision. Jazz Shapers, from Bauer Media, draws that parallel directly, sitting at the unique intersection of business innovation and musical spirit. Each conversation, hosted by Elliot Moss, is less a standard interview and more a deep exploration of character. Moss has a particular talent for drawing out the personal stories behind the professional success, focusing on the motivations and the pivotal moments that define a leader’s journey. You’ll hear from founders and pioneers who have, much like the great innovators in jazz, soul and blues, defied convention and broken the mould. The discussions delve into how they navigate challenges, recognise opportunities, and maintain their drive when the path isn’t clear. This isn’t about dry strategy or generic advice; it’s about the human element at the core of every enterprise. Produced by Jazz FM, the podcast offers a thoughtful, nuanced listen for anyone curious about the mindset required to shape not just a business, but an entire field. Tune in for authentic, compelling stories that resonate with the creativity and resilience found in both the boardroom and the recording studio.
