In this episode of Jimmy's Jobs, we chat with Ahmed, founder of Cambridge Spectacle Co. Ahmed's company is based in the West Midlands and gained notoriety after sponsoring the Parenting Hell podcast. He donates a portion of each sale to St. Paul's Blind Charity, and Cambridge Spectacle Co even has stock in Asda.
Ahmed previously worked for West Midlands Mayor Andy Street, and he ran for parliament in the same constituency as our Jimmy’s dad. During the conversation, Ahmed shares insights into the transferable skills between politics and entrepreneurship.
He's also created a TV ad for Cambridge Spectacle Co using Fiverr for just a few hundred pounds and has featured in ads for Fiverr featuring Bukayo Saka from Arsenal. Ahmed believes that brand coordinators are the future of jobs, and he's competing with big names like Gucci and Armani in the glasses space.
