PART-TIME REGIONAL DIRECTOR - business development focus in Newport, Wales

Company Description: Part‑Time, Fractional & Interim CEOs, MDs, NEDs; real‑world Advisors who have scaled businesses. Boardroom Advisors is a team of part‑time people working hard to help Scale‑ups and SMEs succeed. We want our Regional Directors and Advisors to achieve the life/work balance they’ve always wanted. If you are an experienced business person who has run your own company and has experience of being a Consultant or Board Advisor, then we want to talk to you.

Directors get the opportunity to run their own region as an Associate, building their team of Advisors, potential partners and clients. You do not have to do this full time; most Regional Directors work 2‑3 days per week alongside their own company. In return you help build a business and share in its future – the plan is for the business to be owned by the senior people in the company in a 5‑6 year period, probably as an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) or similar. Directors operate as an Associate, running their own region. The role is a mix of business development, sales, marketing, networking, recruitment, team management and customer service – but you must be able to sell.
