Working with You
I normally tailor my services to how you want to work. I can take on smaller pieces of work, for example providing support to existing systems, or I can work on specific projects from start through to completion. I can also supply regular 'ad-hoc' resources as and when required, giving you greater flexibility as you are not tied in to a minimum contract period.
My aim is to build a long-term, successful working relationship with my clients rather than a "hit and run" approach. This means you know that I stand by my work and don't vanish over the horizon once a job is over.
Work can be carried out on site, remotely or a mixture of both. I can work on my own or as part of a team.
I have been security cleared to work on projects and have worked with potentially sensitive data, so you can be guaranteed discretion.
I work both on my own and also in collaboration with a number of Design Agencies.
I am fully insured and references are available on request. Don't just take my word for it!
