How It Works
Fee: £50 per hour.
Retained Time Guaranteed
I work with you as a team member but on a fractional basis, meaning I’m on an agreed monthly retainer for xnumber of hours of time each month for a minimum of 7 hours per month. This gives you all the benefit of my skillset without the cost of a full-time hire commitment.
How Time Is Structured
This is flexible. You might want a fixed day each week or to use your bank of hours with me taking responsibility for an agreed set of tasks and priorities each month.
Either way, I work as a member of your team. I get to know you all and your mission and your organisational voice.
Tracking Time & Transparency
All hours are tracked and submitted as a timesheet at the end of each month so you can see exactly how your time has been used.
Ad hoc Projects & Additional Hours
I never fill all my hours. This is deliberate to allow for flexibility supporting regular clients with additional tasks that inevitably arise. You might need extra hours for a particular project or to cover someone else’s absence for example.
Additional Costs
Only any expenditure I make preauthorised by you of course. Travel and postage for example are invoiced monthly.
How We Begin, Trial & Notice
We begin with a call to discuss what you need and how I can help. That then moves into a three-month trial period for us to get to know one another and for me to get to know your organisation — reviewing your current communications, understanding your audiences and priorities, and agreeing a plan for what we’ll focus on together. After that a month’s notice on either side is the courteous way to conduct business.
If you’d like to discuss whether this could work for your organisation, get in touch for an informal conversation or a detailed meeting to set up a trial. There’s no obligation.
