Rajan Gill for The Apprentice S20 / BBC
Age: 30
From: Medway, Kent
Occupation: Pharmaceutical Sales Specialist
What’s your business plan?
“My business, AV Installations focuses on mounting TVs and building bespoke media walls targeting mainly new build homes. I want these features built in from the start. Developers can offer media walls, TV mounting, and panelling as optional upgrades – just like flooring or kitchen choices, giving buyers a high-value modern spec while keeping installation faster, cleaner and efficient.”
What makes you a unique candidate?
“I don’t believe in ‘luck’ — you create your own luck in life. I’ve been in Private Equity, Bio-Pharmaceuticals, the fast-food industry, and I’ve stood on a freezing construction site at 5am in steel toe caps getting it done. I’ve seen both sides of business: the boardroom and the physical graft. I create my own outcomes, and throughout this show I’ll prove it. If no-one listens, I’ll make them. In the boardroom you don’t wait to be heard — you take the room and make sure no-one forgets your name.”
Why do you deserve Lord Sugar’s investment?
“The first rule in business is you invest in the individual – and I’m exactly that individual. I have a proven track record running multiple businesses, I outwork everyone in the room, and ‘no’ simply isn’t an option for me. Media walls and TV mounting aren’t a passing TikTok trend; they’re the new standard in modern homes. I’m leading the shift by making premium, safe, and visually striking setups accessible to every homeowner without the inflated price tag. The demand is exploding, the market is wide open, and with investment, I will scale this into the dominant brand in the industry.”
The Apprentice returns Thursday at 9pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
