New Business Opportunity – Self-Employed Hillarys Advisor

Flexible working you can adapt around your lifestyle, whether you’re looking for Full or Part-Time hours.

Build your own fulfilled career while enjoying independence and support from the UK’s leading provider of window furnishings solutions.

Hillarys, established over 50 years ago with an annual turnover of £250m, continues to thrive and is growing its network of over 1200 local Advisors.


About the Role

As a Hillarys Advisor, you’ll design and shape your own self-employed business, working closely to home and around your commitments. There’s no other role like it.

Your role will involve:

  • Visiting customers in their homes to provide expert advice on window furnishings solutions.
  • Measuring spaces to create tailored choices before manufacturing and delivery.
  • Installing products yourself to guarantee a beautiful finish, ensuring customer satisfaction every time.

No prior experience? That’s fine – most of our Advisors started with nothing but great personality, approachability, communication skills, and a passion for outstanding service.


Key Responsibilities

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
