Communications projects – communications consultant

We have all seen it before, you are busy managing BAU and then something unexpected pops up. Not everyone has the luxury of having resources just waiting to take on that new, urgent piece of work.

We can help. If you have a piece of work that you need someone to focus on it, to give it the love and attention it needs, or a project that has stalled and you need someone to get it over the finish line.

With experience in long-term delivery and short-term, quick turnaround projects we can ensure you get the outcome you are looking for on time and on budget. Consider if you need help with:

  • Communications for a new program or product.
  • Ongoing communications support for a taskforce.
  • Support for a change to your services or program.
  • Communicating the introduction of new processes, protocols or legislation.
  • Delivery of a new tool or communications channel.
  • Stakeholder mapping.
  • Research and analysis.

We will be that extra set of hands, the body you need when you have no one left to throw work to. We’ll be there during the busy times to keep the strategy work going.

How we work

We have three ways of working on a project:

  1. A project – It’s pretty straightforward. You tell us what you need. We talk about what that might look like and provide a quote for the whole piece of work. This is great if it’s a contained project and you know exactly what you need. We all know what is going to be delivered from the beginning.
  2. A day rate – If you are less clear about exactly what you need a more flexible way of working is to have us join your team one (or more) days a week. We can be dedicated support but our priorities can change with yours.
  3. Adhoc support – If you need help with the unexpected, we can come and help at short notice, providing an extra body on the ground or remote support to get you through those tough times. If you just need help when you need it (and you don’t always know when that is) we can have more flexible way of working to meet your needs.

It doesn’t matter if you need someone for a few hours, a day or over a longer period of time, we have the expertise and experience to jump in and get started.

“Mel is simply amazing and can turn her hand to any communications challenge. Mel was a pivotal member of our small team managing the recent MoG changes. She was responsive, flexible, influential and able to work through significant ambiguity to come up with strategies and products that really hit the mark. I can’t wait to work with her again.”
