About the Role
We are looking for an ambitious, analytical and highly motivated individual to join our growing business in a flexible part-time role.
This position would be ideal for a university student, recent graduate or someone looking for a part-time opportunity to gain genuine commercial experience while earning alongside their studies or other commitments.
Working directly with the Managing Director, you will analyse customer data, research markets, identify opportunities and create professional presentations that help us win new business. Your work will directly influence customer meetings, commercial strategy and sales success.
We're far more interested in attitude than experience. If you're naturally curious, enjoy solving problems, love working with data and have the drive to continually improve, we'd love to hear from you.
The Opportunity
Unlike many part-time roles, this position gives you genuine responsibility from day one.
You'll help develop customer proposals worth tens or even hundreds of thousands of pounds by producing clear, data-driven insights that demonstrate the value of our services. Your work will help businesses reduce costs, improve efficiency and make better commercial decisions.
As the company grows, there will also be opportunities for the role to develop with increased responsibility.

- Curious and always looking for better ways of doing things.
- Hungry to learn and develop professionally.
- Commercially minded.

Salary & Rewards
We offer a competitive fixed salary for the agreed part-time hours together with a highly rewarding performance-based bonus structure.
This role has significant earning potential for someone who is proactive, commercially minded and committed to helping grow the business. As your work contributes directly to winning new customers and developing existing accounts, you will have the opportunity to share in that success through performance incentives.
We are looking for someone who wants more than simply earning an hourly wage. We want someone who is excited by the opportunity to build valuable commercial experience, develop new skills and be rewarded for the value they create.
Why Join Us?
This is an opportunity to gain hands-on experience that many graduates don't receive until much later in their careers.
You'll work directly with the Managing Director on real commercial projects, influence strategic decisions, and help shape the future growth of the business. You'll develop highly transferable skills in business analysis, commercial strategy, presentation design, financial modelling and customer engagement.
If you're ambitious, driven and looking for a role where your ideas genuinely matter, we'd love to hear from you.
