Why did he quit anyway?
He hadn't been in the job that long has he?
MD's are cunts fact (no offense)

I sold my company to a larger one earlier this year. He was MD of that business and we became joint MD's of the larger group that we created. He's been running their business for 6 years and has had enough.

Means I will be sole MD (subject to shareholder approval) which isn't a bad thing except I have got a lot else on with the baby, possibly moving house etc.

Lot of stress innit.
Battered get a good PA if you haven't got one already.

But he is already a director

I have no idea how big the buisness is.
I know plenty of places that don't have specific PA's but share admin resources, someone who basically organises your life like a good PA can will make thinks a lot easier.

We will turn over about £7m this year.
EBITDA of £800k but we are clearing down bank debt so not paying out dividends.

It is a lot of stress which is one of the main reasons I sold my business. Worrying about meeting payroll every month is extremely stressful when things are tight.
I have a good PA thankfully.

It could be - if only I had the time to do it properly - it's a lot more work for me and we have complimentary skills which has been good for the success of the business.

No-one lower down who would be good as a replacement?

We don't have a proper succession plan in place.
I am sitting down with my HR director at lunchtime to discuss options.
