The Opportunity

Director (Managing Director)

This is a brand new role, with high-autonomy, a high-impact leadership role built for a proven individual who wants to ‘springboard’ their career to help to continue to build something meaningful without starting from scratch. This role will suit the type of person who naturally describes themselves as: entrepreneurial, ambitious, positive mindset and definately driven. Someone who wants to continue to build, and grow, not just manage.

Someone who looks at “inheriting a team” and sees a running start, not a finished job. Most importantly, you’re entrepreneurial. You may have thought about setting up on your own, but the opportunity to join an established business, inherit a proven team, and earn meaningful equity feels like the smarter next move.

Importantly, this it isn’t an opportunity to simply maintain and manage what’s already there. This is an opportunity to really be able to grow.

You’ll inherit an established team of billing consultants from day one, be comfortable (and happy) to continue developing your own business, and take ownership of the day-to-day operation. Leading from the front is key here.
