Help turn exceptional entrepreneurial experience into paid brand partnerships. We’re looking for an organised, curious outreach assistant to find commercial opportunities for John Stapleton and JBS Media.
About the opportunity
John co-founded New Covent Garden Soup Co and Little Dish, built and exited both businesses, and is now an investor and mentor. His experience gives brands a credible voice for content that connects with founders, business owners and consumers.
Working directly with Steve Selwood, you’ll approach brands and agencies to uncover live campaign briefs, paid content collaborations and advertising opportunities. The focus is practical: find the right buyers, start relevant conversations and secure qualified introductions.
What you’ll do
• Research suitable brands and influencer, talent, creative, PR and paid social agencies.
• Identify the people who commission campaigns and check their contact details.
• Write personalised emails and LinkedIn outreach using approved messaging.
• Follow up consistently and identify live briefs, budgets and campaign timings.
• Keep contacts, conversations and next steps accurate in Pipedrive.
• Share a short weekly update on replies, opportunities and introductions.
What you’ll bring
Clear, confident writing; strong research skills; reliable follow-through; and an interest in brands, creators and entrepreneurship. Some experience in outreach, sales support, influencer marketing or PR would be useful, but judgement, organisation and initiative matter most.
How we’ll support you
We’ll provide positioning, content examples and outreach templates. Steve will handle pricing, negotiations and agreements, with creative and production support from Ekstasy. You’ll focus on finding and developing the right opportunities.
How to apply
Send a short introduction, your CV or LinkedIn profile, and a brief example of an outreach message you would write for John. Please include your availability for 5–10 hours a week.
