Pete Flint was the founding member of LastMinute.com with Brent Hoberman and Martha Lane Fox. Following the billion dollar acquisition, Pete went to study for an MBA at Stanford Graduate School of Business. He noticed how it was hard to get accomodation, and so this led to him founding Trulia, which turned into another unicorn being acquired by Zillow for £3.5 billion. He has recently written a brilliant essay on the NFX website on how to 10X your career, you can check out that piece which we talk a lot about in the show - https://www.nfx.com/post/10x-career-decisions/I have been thinking of how to transition my career for a year since leaving Downing Street and it is the best piece I have read on the subject.Thank you to this episodes sponsor, Juggle.Jobs Three key themes of this podcast have been talent, diversity, and flexibility. Young ambitious companies always face a challenge between hiring a full time employee, but also getting the right level of experience for what they need and within their budgets.That is where Juggle Jobs comes in, think of them as an AirBnB for high end employment ...as Hayden Wood said in the first episode, hire talent, but rent experience.You can post a free job advertisement on Juggle in just a few minutes, and then you are presented with intelligently matched candidates.You can check their process at juggle.jobsA reminder that you can follow us on Twitter and Instagram @JimmysJobs If you want further summaries and sneak peeks of upcoming guests - sign up to the Jimmy's Jobs of the Future email at https://www.getrevue.co/profile/jimmym Thanks very much for listening. If you'd like to see more information about the job roles being offered please look at my Twitter @jimmym

Summary of the episodeJimmy interviews the Founder and CEO of the Dots, Pip Jamieson. The Dots is a platform over over half a million 'no collar workers', these people can include those in the creative industries and the wider technology sector. There are 10,000 companies on the platform using it to hire people. Jimmy provides a briefing note to the Prime Minister which is summarised below. If I were summing that up to the PM, I would probably write something along the lines of the followingPrime Minister, this week, we met with a fascinating company which is creating the modern day rails for the creative economy and more broadly what they term no collar workers It has half a million members on the platform, 40% of whom are freelancers, they are predominantly coming together to work on creative side projects and they are seeing a surge of freelancers as people pursue side projects, partly as a result of the pandemic. There are also 10,000 companies on the platform using it to hire people. Unsurprisingly in the last few months, they have seen competition for applications increasing across the board. But equally there has been a rise of remote working applications and opportunities, which is leading to a democratisation for those not living in metropolitan hubs, we heard a similar theme from Hayden Wood at bulb last week. They are seeing an increase of the multi disciplinary individual, sometimes referred to as T shaped skill set or even coloquially as a ‘slashie'. Furthermore, they are seeing the rise of skill swappers, a trend where people are trading their time and skills in exchange for being taught skills in other areas, for example an accountant or lawyer may offer their time to a start up project in exchange for learning about more creative design and vicer versa. They are seeing this increase at round 50% month on month increase, therefore this is now 25x what it was last year. When building The Dots, Pip referred to four golden skills of product, which are management, engineering, design and data - they have upskilled interns in these areas who are now full team members. Technology firms are increasing their hiring on the platform, but not just in technical skills such as engineering, they are also seeing a significant rise number of copywriters and producers for example.Even in technical roles the importance of creativity is becoming more important, and this is a trend The Dots are likely to see increasing until Quantum technology comes in. I may provide a separate note on Quantum technology, that would be written by someone with lots of PhDs, although I am hoping that we will get a guest on at some point to talk about the impact of Quantum computing soon, because it is truly mind boggling. Please rate us and share us on social media @jimmysjobs thank you for your supportIf you'd like to see more information about the job roles being offered please look at my Twitter @jimmym

The two articles that I mentioned in the summary that Hayden sent across after the show:https://cultureby.com/2019/01/someday-we-will-all-play-for-the-patriots.htmlhttps://www.patspulpit.com/2017/5/18/15644770/bill-belichick-explains-why-the-patriots-always-have-one-of-the-smallest-coaching-staffs-in-the-nflJimmy is joined by one of the UKs leading entrepreneurs, Hayden Wood founded Bulb alongside his co founder, Amit just five years ago in 2015. For those of you that haven't heard of,Bulb, they provide 100% renewable electricity and 100% carbon neutral gas to a now staggering 1.7 million members across the UK.   That has led it to become the fastest growing private company in the UK, but its growth is not just limited to these shores, as it has recently just announced expansion into France, Spain and Texas.  They employ almost 900 people in a wide variety of different roles, and we'll ask Hayden where he sees green jobs of the future coming from, it is a phrase that is often trotted out, but we'll aim to get into more of the detail today.  Whilst it has been a great success story, not everything is or has been plain sailing and we will discuss some of the challenges the company has had along the way. **Please leave us a rating if you enjoy the show or even tag us on social media in particularly on LinkedIn, we are at @JimmysJobs**Prime Ministerial SummaryIf I were summing that conversation up to the Prime Minister in a short briefing memo, the key things that I would include. All employees have some form of data test now The best ideas can come from surprising places for example their internal hack weeks, where they put lots of multi disciplinary people together to try and improve the business - this is where their single energy tariff idea came from. Only 5% of their employees had a background in energy before joining the company. At any given point, 5% of employees are in rotation within another part of the business, seeing how each other work and sharing ideasBiggest challenge came when trying to recruit too many people too quickly - this is a challenge we see often for fast growing scale up companiesThey are using the traditional in person interview less, because of biases that this can lead too. Lastly, I was interested to hear how whilst the energy use has been smoothed throughout the pandemic, rather than the traditional 5-7pm dash, that has actually led to an increase in prices because it is therefore less predictable. I would then cross check that with the energy adviser to see if they had any comment they wanted to add. **Please leave us a rating if you enjoy the show or even tag us on social media in particularly on LinkedIn, we are at @JimmysJobs**If you'd like to see more information about the job roles being offered please look at my Twitter @jimmym

This show is going to be presented by Jimmy McLoughlin. who up until last year,  was advising the UK Prime Minister on business specialising in technology and entrepreneurship. The aim of this podcast is to interview entrepreneurs about where they think the jobs of the future are coming from and recreate a Prime Ministerial briefing. The truth is, no-one knows what the future holds, but the people building the fastest growing businesses is a good place to start. When working in 10 Downing Street, Jimmy's primary role was to be the go to person for business leaders when they wanted to feed information into the centre of the Government.It meant he could be dealing with a wide range of issues on any given day, from apprenticeship policy, to stock market dives or  their concerns about the latest round of Brexit negotiations. The worst part his day would come when he would get a call from a FTSE Chief Exec telling me they were about to make a large number of redundancies to coincide with the opening of the stock market.This would make for a lot of doom and gloom headlines, and of course for every job lost it was not only a tragedy for an individual, but would often impact an entire family. Yet the UK was undergoing a jobs miracle at the same time, entrepreneurs up and down the country were starting and growing businesses  which was leading to record level of employment, but these incremental steps were often not widely reported. Therefore he was and is curious about where these new jobs were coming from and each week, he'd try to include a note for the PM about a company that had created new jobs in a different area of the country.With everything that has happened in 2020, this now feels more pressing than ever. The process of trying to find a new job is bewildering and complex and it can be difficult to know how to future proof your skills.  So that is what this podcast is about, interviewing entrepreneurs about where they see the jobs of the future coming from, where they are planning to take their businesses, what skills they value now, but also what skills they think their business will need in 3-5 years time. Whether you are just starting out on your career, transitioning or even a bit longer in the tooth, I hope you'll find these conversations thought provoking about where our economy is going. We have some amazing guests lined up like Hayden Wood who founded the renewable energy company, Bulb and people like Sarah Wood, who had been a University Lecturer, but went on to create £100 million pound business in Unruly Media. He'll break the summaries down into what I would include in a PM briefing and then more of a general careers counsel. I am bootstrapping this, so as every podcast asks, if you enjoy it, please leave a rating, share us on social media particularly on LinkedInInstagramTwitter or even be old fashioned and tell a friend down the pub about it. And make sure you subscribe, that means you won't miss an episode. Any feedback is gratefully received, he is not a broadcast interviewer so it'll be rough and ready in parts, please do get in touch for how you think we can improve the show.

Do you want to cut your carbon emissions to zero and save money on your energy bills? Introducing Bulb, a green energy company founded in 2015 by Hayden Wood and co-founder, Amit Gudka. Together they wanted to change the energy industry, to make it better, by making energy simpler, cheaper and greener. “We saw all the new technology from solar panels and batteries and smart meters changing the relationship that homes have with the grid. The home of the future [has] solar panels on the roof, there's an electric vehicle in the driveway, and that home needs an energy supplier that it could trust, because its energy needs need to be managed.”Today Bulb has grown their members to 1.7 million, adding more to their ranks each day. And with a team of over 700 people spread across London, France, Spain and the US, running a company that aims to use technology to reduce costs, improve efficiency and provide outstanding customer service hasn’t been an easy journey. “A lot of the feedback we got in the early days was: ‘sounds too good to be true’, ‘where's the catch?’ ‘It doesn't make sense, you know? Why are you doing this?’ ‘Why hasn't somebody else done it before?’”So what does it take to build and lead Britain's fastest growing company? “This is where I think I have really struggled to be honest, I found this job very difficult. And I feel like I'm really just at the early stages of my learning on how to do it. I think I do have tendencies to be a perfectionist. And I think it's helpful sometimes, but generally unhelpful. You have to not let perfectionism get in the way of excellence.”We chat about:The genesis of the idea for BulbAngel investors and EISStruggling to get customer sign upsDeveloping as a leader and giving employees autonomyHandling the pandemic and pivoting on a sixpenceThe importance of company mission in recruitingWant to receive our podcast on a weekly basis?

Hayden Wood, CEO & Co-founder of bulb, one of the UK's fastest growing renewable energy suppliers, talks about the business of renewable energy and what's to come in the transformation towards sustainable energy.

Seemingly stable traditional sectors- such as property, insurance, recruitment and health- are being revolutionised by new technology. This podcast, recorded live at London co-working space Fora, will take a look at how technological innovation is radically altering industries. With a panel of "disruptors" who are changing the tech landscape themselves, and hosted by tech journalist and broadcaster Georgie Barrat, join us fortnightly for The Tech Disruption Series. The third in the series look at EnergyTech, and asks all the questions we should be asking- how can new tech in energy help the energy crisis? What are the benefits of revolutionising the traditional industry? And what's coming next? Georgie Barrat is joined by Fiona Howarth Saunders of Octopus Energy; Stephen Fitzpatrick of OVO Energy; Jane Lucy of Labador; and Hayden Wood of Bulb. Apologies for any recording disruption during this podcast. It was recorded live and we did encounter a couple of technical difficulties.

Hayden Wood is the CEO and co-founder of Bulb Energy, an award-winning renewable energy startup, based in London. Hayden has a background in management consulting and together with his friend Amit, spotted an unmet need in the UK's energy market. They created Bulb in 2015 and have enjoyed the challenge of building a socially driven enterprise whilst delivering low prices and next level customer service. We had a great discussion with Hayden on a number of topics, including his personal journey to becoming a co-founder of a successful renewable energy startup; the state of the energy market in the UK, how renewables are challenging the status quo, what the secret sauce is behind Bulb's impressive growth and his advice on getting a next-gen startup off the ground. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Find the show notes here  ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ *** SOCIALIZE WITH US *** Website  Instagram  Facebook   Twitter  YouTube

China's president has been discussing trade at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Daisy Guo is a Chinese entrepreneur who tells us she welcomes Mr Xi's stance. Meanwhile, Anthony Scaramucci, a senior adviser to Donald Trump, explains the president-elect's approach to trade. Also in the programme, businesses in the UK have been responding to prime minister Theresa May's vision for a "clean" Brexit, confirming that Britain will leave the European single market. We get the perspective of Christopher Nieper from clothing manufacturers David Nieper, who voted to leave the EU, and Hayden Wood, co-founder of the energy sector start-up Bulb, who voted to remain.
