Why This Role ExistsSpot On Warehouse Solutions is in full-blown growth mode - scaling nationally, rolling out major systems, acquiring businesses, building new divisions, and leading from the front.The MD is at the heart of it all - driving strategy, leading commercial negotiations, building partnerships, managing people, solving problems and still chasing his calendar, approving invoices, and juggling personal admin.That's no longer sustainable.This role exists to take the noise, the friction, and the daily chaos off his plate - and replace it with clarity, control, and commercial focus.You'll protect his time, prep key conversations, track outcomes, build internal rhythm, and make sure nothing slips - in the business or in life.This is not a support role.This is a performance partner.
A personal gatekeeper.
A strategic enabler.You'll be the reason the MD can lead faster, think clearer, and drive harder - without burning out or losing sight of what matters most.If you love pace, thrive in ambiguity, and want a front-row seat to real leadership and business building - this is it.This is our first-ever EA/PA hire.
We've built the business from the ground up - now it's time to build this role with the right person.
Someone who can own the chaos, bring structure, and multiply output across both work and life.
