Consultancy fees guidance

Yaneik

Hi All,

I completed level 7 back in 2012 but then went on maternity leave and I am now looking to get back into the workforce. Prior to going on maternity leave I was employed by a hospital Trust where I worked as a HR generalist having my own caseloads advising managers on sickness, AL, grievance polices etc.

 

 I have been approached for some consultancy work by a small company. I have been asked to write the company polices, hand book etc (which I’ve never done before). I am basically looking to create the relevant policies and procedures which will support the business and add value. Currently there is no dedicated HR function.

I am seeking some advice on the fees to charge? I’ve found this difficult to say the least but looking for some guidance please?

Thanks

Yaneik

    In addition to Davids advice I would throw in two points

    1) If you do charge a fee then 250-400 a day probably is in ball park. This is not high end work commanding big fees.

    2) Before you take on any work ensure you are competent to do it. This is not a dig but be sure that a background as a HR Generalist in the NHS equips you to write policies and handbooks for a small "dynamic" (?) organisation given you haven't done this type of work before.(or to put another way be sure you are not a Plumber taking on a carpentry project)

    Good luck
