Resources

Guides and writing

Two kinds of thing live here. Guides you can use in your next search, and short pieces on hiring senior people who work remotely.

Guides

Each one is meant to be used, not filed

Each guide asks for your name, work email, company and role. We send a private link that expires, so the file arrives in your inbox rather than sitting on a public URL.

Short pieces on hiring and managing remote people

We write when there is something specific to say: what a good brief contains, or what a senior person needs in week one.

Case studies

Published once a client approves one in writing

We do not write up an engagement a client has not signed off on. When one is approved, it appears here with the detail the client agreed to share.

In the meantime

The service pages set out how an engagement runs, step by step, from the first brief to the monthly report. A call covers the rest.

A short call is enough to start. We will ask about the work, the manager and the timing, and tell you plainly which service fits.
