I tried to start this advert with a “Howdy partner” but even I couldn’t keep that going.
Here’s the reason though: about a third of this role is setting up a brand-new office and operational framework in the US.
The rest? All the stuff that actually gets you out of bed in the morning:
- Building ways of working that make sense (not just more red tape).
- Implementing systems and processes that scale.
- Creating frameworks for smooth project delivery.
- Making teams accountable without killing creativity.
- Leading, mentoring, and developing people properly.
This is a £20m agency, 40 people strong, aiming for £30m in the next 3 years. You’ll be a critical part of making that happen.
Think:
👉 Resource planning that actually works.
👉 P&P management that sticks.
👉 Training that levels people up.
👉 A direct route to the MD when decisions need to be made.
👉 A genuine leadership runway to take the reins long term.
And yes, they’d love someone who’s already wrangled the US business planning beast, not just delivering events, but structuring a business for growth.
Your mission?
- Build, develop, and grow the US office to 15 headcount within 18 months.
- Create a global framework so both offices run in sync.
- Work alongside the owners on strategic oversight of the whole business.
This isn’t about keeping the lights on. It’s about building something bigger than what exists today.
