YOUR HIRING GUIDE
Start with the right details.
A useful brief helps both sides understand the work before making a commitment.
Write your brief- 01
List the repeatable tasks
Describe what needs doing, how often, the systems involved and what a good result looks like. Share a redacted example where it helps.
- 02
Check the working approach
Ask how the helper organises tasks, handles exceptions and reports progress. Choose experience with the tools and workflow you already use.
- 03
Start with a clear handover
Agree priorities, turnaround, access permissions and the point at which approval is needed. Document the process so it can be repeated or handed back.
PLAN YOUR BUDGET
How much does hiring cost?
The right price depends on the task, experience and scope. Compare the work included in each proposal, then agree a total or an hourly approach.
What can affect the price
- Task volume and frequency
- System and spreadsheet complexity
- Research and quality checks
- Availability and response times

Before you begin.
Still working out the details? Start with a clear brief and ask the helper about the parts that matter to you.
Can I book a small task before ongoing work?
Yes. A short, well-defined task lets both sides test the workflow before discussing recurring support.
How can I share business information sensibly?
Start with redacted samples. Give access only to the records and tools required, and agree how information should be stored, returned or removed when the task ends.
Can someone fix a spreadsheet I already use?
Yes. Explain the input data, expected output and current problem. Keep an untouched backup and agree a test using representative sample data.
What should recurring support include?
Agree the task list, hours or outcomes, reporting schedule, response expectations and the process for adding work outside the original scope.
YOUR NEXT STEP
A little help. A lot more possible.
Find the skills for your project or share what you do best.
Another way to work together: exchange time.
Agree an hour of your own skills for an hour of theirs. Explore direct time exchange. Local work, especially childcare, still needs the right safeguards. Read the checks and safer-hiring guide.
