Exciting opportunity to work with Bristol based entrepreneurs and start-up businesses

The Role

This is an exciting time to be joining the company; whilst the Founder has a clear vision for the Incubator, this role needs an individual who has the ideas, energy and skills to help shape and drive its future. As Incubator Manager you will have a wide-ranging brief - you'll be responsible for developing the programme, building a network of business contacts and then motivating and managing each new group of entrepreneurs who require support.

The Person

The successful Business Manager - Incubator will need to build a significant network of contacts in the local business community that can provide a pipeline of potential entrepreneurs, and that will contribute training and mentoring resources. You'll need to develop a stimulating, challenging and informative programme structure and content. Vitally you'll take the leadership role with the Incubator group in delivering a motivational and effective programme. More than anything you will need a track record of success in business that affords you the authority and credibility to lead such a venture.

You will be entrepreneurial in outlook with a strong understanding of SMEs, business finances and investment processes.
