Extra work on the side?

Emma Bullen

Hi all,

Just wondered if any of you doing anything on the side or have any ideas as to how to increase earnings?

I have a full time role but was thinking of doing some part time consultancy work on the side.

Does anyone have any advice or suggestions?

Many thanks

  • Hi Emma,

    I am in the same boat as you, I'd love to know where to start advertising myself for this type of work. There are websites such as Work Up (I think it's called), but you are basically bidding for the roles alongside others who may have more experience than you which can be quite disheartening. I had a friend who just completely gave up on the idea after trying one of those sites.

    I have a good 14+ hours free a week (usually evenings and weekends) that could be used to help out a Company with HR related queries or admin if needed, but just not sure how to put myself out there.

    I'd suggest using your strengths within HR, for example, mine is Employment Law, policy writing, and employee wellbeing. However, because I am a generalist I wouldn't mind doing a bit of recruitment or training for a Company if I asked to do so.

    If you find out, let me know! Hopefully, we'll both get something soon!
