Full job description

Four+ businesses, two teenagers, no spare hours. A third of this job is logistics, a third is fighting suppliers who don't deliver, and a third is real strategy. It's access to a serial entrepreneur you will not get on a graduate scheme. A successful application will take about an hour.

The short version

I've built and sold several businesses. I run a property portfolio, a hardware distribution company, I'm in the middle of a large and complicated property build, I sit on multiple boards and I'm a single dad to two teenagers.

I need one person alongside me. Not an administrator — someone I hand a problem to and then don't think about again.

I'm hiring deliberately early: you'll have two to four years of doing something real, and a lot of headroom. You'll be paid properly for that level, and you'll learn faster than you would anywhere else.

What the job honestly is

About a third of it is logistics. Driving. Collecting things. Returning things. Buying things. Giving me time back I don't have. Waiting at a property for that delivery to arrive - running that urgent errand when I and you don't have time. Tidying up the mess I leave behind me. It is not glamorous and will come when your knee deep in the other two thirds!
About a third of it is fighting. Suppliers who are six weeks late. Companies who've taken the money and gone quiet. Refunds nobody wants to pay. Contractors who said Tuesday and meant never. You'll take these off me entirely — chase them, escalate them, and where it comes to it, argue them. You'll get good at being politely immovable.
About a third of it is thinking. Real projects with a start, an end and something at stake. Going away for three weeks to learn an industry I need to understand, and coming back with a view on it. Building the thing I've been meaning to build for a year. This is the part I most want, and the part that gets crushed first if you let the urgent stuff win — so protecting it is part of your job, not mine.

What I need from you

Manage yourself. I don't have time to manage you. You'll get context from me in voice notes, fast calls, a short conversation once a week, and you'll have to make that be enough. If you need someone to check on you, this will make us both miserable.
Manage me. Bring me decisions, not questions. A recommendation, two alternatives, and what you'll do anyway if I don't reply by Friday. Chase me when I'm the bottleneck — I will be, often, and I won't be annoyed about it.
Finish things. Most people are fine at starting. The rare thing is the person still politely on the phone about it in week seven.
Be bright. You need to be able to walk into a subject you know nothing about, work out who the real players are and what actually matters, and explain it back to me in a page.

What I'm not looking for

Someone who thinks parts of this job are beneath them. The person who'll load the car is the same person I'll trust with the strategy.
Someone who has only ever worked somewhere with a proper structure, a line manager and an induction. You'll drown.
Ideas people. I have plenty of ideas. I need someone who lands them.
Ten years of experience. I'm deliberately hiring early in your career.

What's in it for you

You'll be in the room for deals, disputes, builds and decisions that people ten years further into their career don't see. You'll see the numbers. You'll see what I get wrong as well as what I get right, and you'll see the difference.

In two years you'll be able to run a project end to end, hold your nerve in a commercial argument, read a contract, and tell the difference between a business and a hobby. This is an apprenticeship dressed as a job. Treat it that way and it will work out for both of us.

Who this tends to suit

People who've already had to work things out on their own. Life hasn't always been easy for you. You've worked as part of a small team. You were the only person doing your job. You've come out of the forces. You've managed a venue, a site, or a set of angry clients. Any or all of that.

What you studied and where matters to me far less than whether you've ever had to sort something out with nobody to ask.

Practical

Full driving licence essential. There's a pool car for work use.
Broadly 9-6pm (5pm Fridays), but this isn't a job that respects a calendar perfectly. Some early starts, some late finishes, some late starts, some early finishes!
DBS check, right to work, and an NDA
25 days holiday with service + usual bank holidays, private healthcare

How to apply

Via Indeed. Two screener questions will follow that need proper thought. Give that your best and if that works out, I'll send you a professional beahavoural and appitude assesment. There are no right answers and no way to game it usefully, so don't try. That will take an hour of your time and you'll get useful feedback from it too. They're the closest thing I'll get to watching you work.

Pay: £30,000.00-£40,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Casual dress
Free parking
On-site parking
Private medical insurance

Application question(s):

A supplier took £8,000 from me eleven weeks ago for something that was due in four. They have stopped answering emails. What do you do, and in what order? (200 words max)
Tell me about something you got done that nobody asked you to do. (200 words max)
Do you hold a full UK driving licence and are you happy to drive as part of the job?
