FIELD AGENT WANTED
The following item has ben received by our branch secretary and is published here for the benefit of our members.
Hello Paul,
I wonder if you can help me? I run Beechwood Solutions Ltd which is principally a nationwide document signing service mainly on behalf of solicitors. We manage this by having a network of self-employed agents and retired police officers are the best people we can get for this kind of work. Since we started in 2004 many NARPO branches have been very helpful in spreading the word to their members when we have needed someone in their area.
Currently we could do with someone to in the Cardiff and Newport area. Can you please suggest a way that would let your members know that we have an opening for someone? You may have people who already carry out Field Agent roles for other companies and would be happy to add another string to their bow, or someone who would be happy to operate on a more relaxed basis to get the feel for the work.
If you can help, please let me know and what you would need from me. In the past we have had mentions in newsletters, at meetings, or word of mouth can be enough if you can think of someone who could be ideal. On its own it wouldn’t be a huge amount of work, but valuable, nevertheless.
Our website is www.beechwooduk.com if that helps.
Thank you
