• BIs one of the original four founders of the company.

• A
  71% (20)
• B
  4% (1)
• D
  11% (3)
• E
  14% (4)

Explanation

Options A and C are correct because they directly reflect the operational responsibilities of an Operations Director. Overseeing security system scenarios (A) is a core operational function, making their input authoritative on what checks are appropriate. Similarly, their day-to-day oversight of hotel operations gives them firsthand knowledge of problems faced by hotel staff (C) - exactly the kind of insight a Business Advisor should contribute.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B is irrelevant - being a founder speaks to company history, not operational expertise or advisory value.
• D describes a function closer to HR or a line manager, not something uniquely tied to an Operations Director role.
• E describes project monitoring experience, which is more characteristic of a project team member or auditor, not a Business Advisor whose value comes from domain knowledge.

Memory tip: A Business Advisor's value comes from what they know about how the business runs, not who they are (B) or what they've done on past projects (E). Ask yourself: "Does this statement describe operational knowledge or responsibility?" - if yes, it's likely correct.
