With growing opportunity and demand for services in carbon solutions and full-scope procurement Auditel are expanding their UK operation, and Head of Partner Recruitment Nick Tubb is delighted to welcome seven new Partners (franchisees) on their May/June induction programme, who are joining the business community with wide-ranging experience and backgrounds.
L-R: Paul Batty, Ilknur Dagasan, Richard Smith, Nick Scull, Jon Alford, Ade Adebola, Nick Tubb (Auditel Partner Recruitment), Paul Harper, Chris Aston (Auditel MD)
The first to have joined is Wirral-based Paul Harper. With a background in operations and business development across different sectors, Paul brings varied experience to the Auditel network.
Upon joining, Paul was able to attend a prospective client meeting within just 30 minutes of having signed his Agreement, which is progressing well and could become his first client.
You can read about Paul’s exploration journey in a separate article.
Joining Paul is Nick Scull, from Somerset who has a wealth of experience as a senior manager and commercial director with recognised diy retail brands.
On his decision to become part of Auditel Nick explains “I was looking for something that would allow me to utilise my skills and many years of experience to help other businesses. Auditel presented a great opportunity for me to start my own business, with excellent support and guidance, along with a network of other experienced consultants that would really broaden the support I can offer.”
He continues “The carbon element provides a real game changer in approach, and knowing that I am doing something that will contribute positively to the planet for future generations gives me a real sense of pride. I’m really excited to get started, and to develop a business that I can enjoy, through delivering an amazing service for my clients”
Bedfordshire-based Paul Batty is also looking forward to the forthcoming training, he explains “I enter into the Auditel network, despite having already developed my own successful consultancy business, following an extensive procurement career. However I can see that by being part of the Auditel Business Community I can benefit in so many ways against working independently. The Auditel marketing and client acquisition resources look excellent and provide all Partners with enhanced credibility and invaluable customer pipelines. This, together with the existing and extensive Auditel network enables me to bring additional expertise and services to my existing clients. “
He adds “I look forward to being able to share my own expertise across some of the many clients, the 100-strong network hold. The cross-overs in procurement and carbon solutions are a key driver in my decision and I am looking forward to immersing myself into this category, both to further assist my clients needs, but also aide my own personal development. I have been very impressed by the Auditel team and the excellent Partners I have spoken with and very much looking to being part of the team.”
Ilknur Dagasan, from London, has had a successful career as a business analyst both in the UK and previously in Turkey. Seeking greater flexibility to develop her business around family, she and husband Ozgur will build the Auditel business togther.
Sharing her feelings about why she was attracted to Auditel she says “With my working experience within the IT industry as a Business System Analyst working on challenging projects, I am aware of how using technology makes our lives easier and more beautiful. Equally, I love spending time with my family outside enjoying the environment and I enjoy showing my 2-year-old the magnificence of nature. It is an important part of my life to teach my son how important it is to protect nature and live in harmony with it.”
Ilknur continues “Being able to make a tangible difference in the world and communities around us has always been a driver for me. I feel being part of the Auditel will provide to meet my life purpose while working ambitious market leaders, providing tailored solutions to how they can take accountability and have an immediate positive impact on the climate crisis.”
Richard Smith from Leicestershire has had extensive experience in the ‘Not-for-profit’ sector in Operations and other leadership roles. On his decision to join Auditel he conveys “For many years I have wanted to work for myself, but I was never quite sure what my business should be or how to go about setting it up. Having worked in the charity and not-for-profit sector for nearly 30 years, I wanted to do something that would not only provide a good income for my family, but which would also provide a social benefit, preferably towards the environment.”
Richard continues “After a lot of research and a lot of dead-ends, I came across Auditel and was immediately interested. It was clearly a highly professional company, providing a valuable and environmentally friendly service. Every step of my research confirmed this, and increased my certainty that this was what I wanted to do. I have met a number of Auditel’s staff and partners and every one of them has been friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and generous with their time – exactly the kind of team I want to work with. Most importantly, they all clearly enjoy working for Auditel. The professionalism of the organisation also attracted me – from the high-quality promotional materials, to the testimonies from satisfied clients and partners.”
“I have loved the start of the journey, and I am looking forward to my future with Auditel. The opportunity to run my own business and to get out what I put in fills me with excitement. I am looking forward to meeting with and working with other partners, and to learning new skills and expertise” he concludes.
Jon Alford from Kent has also joined along with Ade Adebola, from London. Ade has extensive experience in project finance, project management, procurement and commercial management, risk management and policy and strategic development.
Whilst echoing the sentiments of the others on embarking upon his new business, Ade comments “Part of my reason for joining is to grow a successful business by blending my commercial experience with-and leveraging on-Auditel’s resources, expertise and network of like-minded entrepreneurs. And by so doing, achieve financial independence, work-life balance while doing my bit to make the world we live in a less harmful place for generations to come.“
Nick Tubb adds “It’s fantastic to welcome some a diverse and talented group of new Partners. Ahead of training even starting, we have been able to get several of them involved with client-facing engagements that could lead to their first income streams being secured very early on. There is no doubt that the opportunity right now for new Auditel Partners has never been more exciting, and because this is a sector that has huge and long-term demand, there will be significant opportunities for people joining Auditel for many years ahead too.
We have a wonderful training and support team who are geared up ready to help our new Partners to get their businesses up and running. I am very excited for all of them and look forward to seeing them develop to meet and hopefully exceed their goals and objectives. They have recognised this is a perfect moment to get into this sector and with a growing pipeline of interest we look forward to growing the Auditel Business Community network to help meet the great demand for services.”
