The SES is a senior member of staff and is expected to play a leadership role within the Selection Department. Every SES may have both an Admin Assistant as well as a Junior Entrepreneurial Scout reporting into them from time to time, depending on the needs and growth of the department.

The ES reports into the Selection Manager and will be responsible specifically to:

- All technically challenging / bespoke selection projects. The SES is the only Scout that is permitted to scout for Tier 1 clients. A Scout may be required to supervise a Junior Entrepreneurial Scout with a Tier 1 client only when instructed by the Selection Manager.

This includes managing the AA using REMS in the correct manner and that all data is captured correctly and to the required timelines.
- Managing the entire Purple process on REMS, ensuring strong attention to detail in all information captured to the prescribed timelines as determined by the Selection Manager from time-to-time. The SES is responsible for all entrepreneur data captured on REMS, both his/her own process information as well as the information captured by the Administrative Assistant: Selection allocated to the SES.
- The SES is responsible for signing off all Purple files compiled by the SES as well as the AA allocated to the ES. The AA is responsible for compiling all Purple files but the SES is responsible for its quality. The ES must review and sign-off each file created for the SES’ projects.
