Flexible Opportunity: Hillarys Self-Employed Advisor

About the Role

A flexible opportunity tailored to you, whether you’re seeking Full-Time or Part-Time work.

Imagine shaping your own schedule, working from close to home, and aligning your career with your lifestyle and commitments. Our network of over 1,200 local Advisors enjoys outstanding rewards, strong earnings opportunities, and autonomy—all while contributing to the success of Hillarys, the UK’s leading provider of window furnishings solutions.

Established over 50 years ago, Hillarys has an annual £250m+ turnover, continuous growth, and an urgent need for more skilled and motivated Advisors to join the team.

The Opportunity

As an Hillarys Advisor, you’ll support customers in their homes to:

  • Advise on and measure a diverse range of product solutions
  • Arrange bespoke manufacturing and delivery
  • Install products to achieve a professional finish every time

No prior experience in home furnishings is required. Whether this is your first self-employed venture or you’d like reinvention, our team of advocates—many starting from scratch—themselves have built fruitful businesses thanks to our integrity and support.

You’re likely a good fit if you bring: ✔ A great personality and genuine optimism ✔ Strong communication and approachable demeanour ✔ A customer-first focus and pride in unbeatable service quality

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.
