About Us
We a new UK based AI automation company focused on helping businesses improve efficiency, reduce operating costs, increase productivity and streamline their daily operations through intelligent automation.
Our ambition is to establish a successful and scalable technology business providing practical AI and automation solutions to companies throughout the UK, with plans to expand into international markets.
We are seeking an experienced, commercially minded AI Automation Developer to help establish the technical foundations of the company, develop our initial services and deliver reliable automation solutions to business clients.
As a new business, we are particularly interested in someone who is confident working independently, has strong problem solving abilities and can contribute ideas towards developing and expanding the company.
We are looking for more than someone who can simply complete technical tasks. We want an individual who understands the commercial potential of AI automation and is interested in becoming part of a growing business.
For the right candidate, there will be opportunities for increased responsibility, performance related profit sharing and potentially purchasing an ownership stake in the company as it develops.
Key Responsibilities
Essential Requirements
Desirable Experience
Experience working within an AI automation agency or technology consultancy would be advantageous.
We would also welcome applicants with experience in the following areas:
Initial Projects
The successful candidate will initially assist in developing three core automation services that we intend to offer to business clients.
1. AI Customer Enquiry and Appointment Automation
Develop systems capable of handling incoming customer enquiries, collecting relevant information, qualifying potential customers, arranging appointments and updating CRM platforms automatically.
2. Automated Quotations and Customer Follow Ups
Create workflows that collect customer requirements, prepare quotation drafts for approval, send appropriate follow up communications and help businesses improve their sales processes.
3. Business Operations Automation
Develop solutions that connect existing business applications and automate repetitive administrative tasks, including scheduling, customer communications, data entry and invoicing.
These systems will form part of our initial service offering and will be used to demonstrate the practical benefits of automation to prospective clients.
What We Offer
Profit Sharing and Future Ownership Opportunities
We believe that individuals who make a meaningful contribution to the success of a business should have the opportunity to benefit from its growth.
As the company develops, we intend to explore performance related profit sharing arrangements for individuals who demonstrate strong technical ability, reliability and a commitment to the company’s long term success.
For the right individual, there may also be an opportunity to purchase a minority ownership stake in the business, allowing them to participate more directly in its future development.
Any profit sharing or equity arrangements would be discussed individually and subject to mutually agreed terms. These opportunities are not guaranteed as part of the initial freelance engagement.
We are particularly interested in candidates who see the potential to develop a long term career or business relationship rather than simply completing individual projects.
The Ideal Candidate
We are looking for someone who is technically capable, commercially aware, ambitious and genuinely interested in developing practical automation solutions that businesses will pay for.
The ideal candidate will be comfortable taking responsibility for technical projects, suggesting improvements and helping identify opportunities where AI and automation can provide measurable value.
We value reliability, clear communication, initiative and the ability to deliver high quality work.
Previous experience working directly with business clients would be particularly beneficial.
An entrepreneurial mindset would also be an advantage, particularly for someone interested in helping develop the business over the longer term.
How to Apply
Please include the following information with your application.
We are looking to establish a long term working relationship with the right individual and welcome applications from experienced developers interested in contributing to the development of a new AI automation company.
Please note: This position will initially operate on a freelance, project based basis. Work will be commissioned as required, with no guaranteed minimum number of working days. Any future profit sharing, leadership or equity opportunities would be subject to separate agreements and are not guaranteed as part of the initial engagement.
