In this episode, I sit down with Jivan Powell, the founder of Glint Cleaning Solutions, a commercial cleaning and facilities management company serving businesses across the UK.

Jivan breaks down how Glint started during COVID as a car detailing hustle, then pivoted into house cleaning and eventually into commercial contracts as the market shifted. We get into what it actually takes to build a service business, the importance of processes and SOPs, and why being adaptable is not optional if you want to scale.

We also talk about leadership, hiring, and the part of entrepreneurship nobody posts on social media, the uncomfortable work behind the scenes that makes the “highlight reel” possible.

If you run a business, want to start one, or you are in that phase where you are trying to build something real without overcomplicating it, you will get a lot out of this one.

Shout out to Jivan and the team at Glint. If you need commercial cleaning or facilities management support, check them out: glintcleaning.co.uk
