A genuine interest in supporting businesses and the ability to use your own experiences across a range of specialisms is more important than a specific degree subject

As an employed or self-employed business adviser, you’ll provide information, support, coaching, advice and guidance to individuals and companies. This could range from individuals looking to start their own business through to supporting established businesses to grow, scale up, change or diversify their business model.

You’ll provide specialist services depending on your expertise. Many business advisers specialise in supporting start-up businesses to move their business from concept to reality. This involves providing specialist finance and funding advice, consulting on organisational change and offering advice on innovation in technology, right through to supporting a business to develop international trade agreements.

Key areas include:

* providing information on finance, funding and grants
* offering mentoring and coaching to help a business through changes
* providing support on the business planning process
* giving advice on business improvement techniques
* introducing businesses to networks and associates
* supplying specialist support to specific business sectors
