Description

Welcome to "A Job Done Well", the podcast that makes work better.

Each week, Jimmy and James will bring you an entertaining and informative show that will transform how you work. Their backgrounds – everything from running a multi-million-pound business to packing frozen peas – have given them a rich assortment of flops (and the occasional success) to learn from.

Whether you are the leader of your own business, manage an operations team, or just want to do your job better and enjoy it more, this podcast is essential listening. It provides insights, advice, analysis and humour to improve your performance and enjoyment at work. 

The podcast is guaranteed to make your commute to work fly and may also help if you suffer from insomnia.
