00:08has a headcount of 50 people.
00:10We employ 50 people in Peterborough
00:12and we are expanding the business to 100.
00:16I want to double the size of the workforce
00:18by no later than June 2025.
00:21And it's been an incredible success
00:23over the last four years
00:25as we've built this training company to eight figures.
00:28We're consistently doing a million pounds a month now
00:31in training, revenue, and sales.
00:33We are looking first and foremost
00:35for people with a great attitude.
00:37Yeah, there's that saying, you can't train attitude.
00:40So I'm looking for positive people.
00:43I like problem solvers, people for a solution
00:47for every problem, not a problem for every solution.
00:50And people that are committed, hungry,
00:53that want to develop personally, professionally,
00:57and financially.
00:58Trade Mastermind is more than just a job, it's a career.
01:01Personal development is what we sell
01:04as a product and service,
01:05but it's what we want our people to go on as a journey
01:08when they come and join the business.
01:09And all of those people out there in this city
01:12that are looking for their next opportunity,
01:14not only are we offering a great package
01:17in terms of basic pay and bonuses, healthcare, pensions,
01:22but also the opportunity to tap into our training programs.
01:27So each person will get access
01:28to a 25,000 pound training program
01:31that'll allow them to grow personally and professionally
01:34with all sorts of skills.
01:35We're offering a 1,000 pound relocation bonus.
01:38So for anybody that joins our business,
01:41we're gonna pay them 1,000 pounds
01:43when they complete their three month probation.
01:46We are offering all of the other things
01:50like great equipment and great environment.
