We are a leading Property Development Group in the UK that is on the verge of disrupting the Over 55’s property market sector.

**Why does it need disrupting?**

Gone are the days of waiting to get old and move into a care home that is provided for by the government. Sadly, governments today have fiscally bankrupted themselves and have no means or desire to provide for the very ones who contributed immensely to the civilisations they inhabit.

We intend to do something about this that not only answers the immense need **(1.5+m retirement homes needed today in the UK, 11.1m people over 55 in the UK as of today)** but moreover, do it in such a way that minimises their tax liabilities.

To assist us in executing this vision, we are needing a competent, dynamic, and resourceful Chief Investment Officer (CIO).

1. If you don’t permanently live right now in either the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, or Bahrain then **DO NOT** **APPLY**

2. If you don’t have active **HNW investors** with minimum **GBP £1m** to invest in the UK’s Over 55’s property sector, then **DO NOT APPLY**

3. If you tell lies, have no integrity, or answer any of our customised questions **FALSELY **then **DO NOT APPLY**

5. If you are an accountant looking for a job, without any **HNW Investors** then **DO NOT APPLY **we don’t want an accountant, we want a **CIO **with **HNW INVESTORS ONLY**

**MANDATORY**

You must answer all 3 of our customised questions with the absolute truth as we are going to hold you accountable to proving your answers.

We envisage this individual to currently be employed within the investments market, this could stem from promoting stocks, bonds, alternate assets, equities, capital, finance, real estate, lawyers, accountants

The key dynamic is this individual possessing a significant number of **active HNW investors** that they have personally done business with before, **this is MANDATORY.**

And as we live in the **most deceitful time in history**where everyone proclaims to be anyone they choose to be, without being able to back up their **words with works or deeds**.

**It is mandatory** that this individual performs a **“Live Test”** or **“Proof of Performance”** test. See, the proof is always in the pudding, the pudding representing the works and if you make the pudding, then the role is yours.

**Live Test**

**To secure funding for £.5m**

Net Revenue: 3,327,000

Profit Before Funding: 7,096,370

Property Valuation as it stands today (Pre-Application completed) m to .5m

Once Outline Planning Approved m to 0m

The .5m funding must be secured entirely from **your own resources and abilities **on a standalone basis. There will be no financials or resources provided for this test by us, no A&L’s nothing. As this would totally negate the purpose and intent of this test.

Moreover, anyone with an existing network of HNW investors or equity partners should easily be able to secure these funds within 30 days maximum.

**Can you do this?**

**If so, we will guarantee you upfront that you will be given this position, so no further requirements needed by you to obtain this position, nothing.**

- Commission
- Profit Share
- Private Health Insurance
- Own office within a new local accountancy practice
- Marketing and resources provided after completing “Live Test”
- Financial Independence for life “multi-millionaire”
- Be part of something greater than you could do alone
- Help a market sector that is in desperate need of help

All the above is only after you complete the “Live Test” so, this is crystal clear, we will provide you with nothing apart from more details on the project described above, with this information you must go directly to your HNW Investor network and raise the £5.5m within 3 days maximum.

**Can you do this?**

**Job Type**: Permanent

Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, is very widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation and IoT. Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors. The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1000+ colleagues in 70+ countries and very few roles based in offices. Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in interesting locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution.

Our business opportunity is significant; we can deliver both infrastructure and business applications to the enterprise market. As companies refresh their data centers, our goal is to be the platform for cloud and apps. As they re-architect their business applications to embrace open source, our goal is to deliver the majority of their databases, analytics, messaging, publishing, identity, security, workflow. everything that is open source. We are committed to do that at the most efficient price points possible to drive down the total cost of IT, but this is nevertheless a significant global market, and our ambition is to be counted among the most valued software suppliers to the Global 10,000.

The company is founder led, profitable and growing. We are hiring a Chief Revenue Officer , to lead our enterprise sales, sales development, partner, channel, alliance, customer success and field engineering teams. This position will report to the CEO and collaborate with the most senior leaders of Canonical to drive sustainable growth. Success in this role depends on both operational and inspirational leadership. We see the role as program, process and metric oriented, with leadership and charisma being necessary but not sufficient. It is not itself a sales position so much as one that demands astute planning and tactical operations combined with leadership, rigor and insight into the global dynamics and drivers of enterprise software selection and procurement today.

Perhaps unusually we are looking for a leader who is insightful and passionate about the impact of open source in the world .

Across every category of compute - from the very lowest-level microcontroller to the fastest CPU's and GPUs, from the biggest cloud infrastructure to the tiniest devices, we see open source growing in both share and reputation. The same is true in every category of business and scientific application. Our opportunity is to deliver the majority of that software globally. Our mission is to do that efficiently, at low cost, in a way that accelerates progress and preserves a level playing field in silicon and cloud. We work closely with both silicon and cloud providers to maximise performance and align with their differentiated offerings. We work to build and sustain trust as the best way for their customers to get the widest range of open source, and the best of their infrastructure and compute capability. As a result, we are growing mind share and market share. This is a tremendous responsibility, but it is also an extraordinary value proposition.

As Chief Revenue Officer you will be accountable for:

• Go-to-market strategy - prioritize sectors and markets, identify organisational gaps and lead hiring to close them
• Planning - challenge individual teams to develop appropriate, ambitious but sustainable execution plans and metrics with cascading goals and targets
• Execution - review relevant data and correct course where needed on a monthly, quarterly, and annual basis
• Sponsorship - support leaders to close large ($10M+ ARR) deals with global-10k enterprises and large, complex, global tech sector partners
• Insight - capture and share patterns, issues, and insights from customers and partners to broaden commercial awareness within Canonical
• Staffing - supervise the Canonical recruitment, selection and onboarding processes in your organisation
