Fractional design
Senior design support when you need it, and not when you don't. Hands-on design, design leadership or coaching for your team, without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.
Is this right for you?
A good fit if you:
- Need senior design input but not a full-time designer
- Have designers who need leadership or coaching
- Want design help that can flex up and down
Probably not a fit if you:
- Need a designer five days a week
- Want someone to manage a large design team long term

I was fortunate enough to work with Brian on a particularly challenging project. Brian managed to pull everything together into a coherent design, so much so it was shown to to all major stakeholders as an example of what the team could achieve.
There is zero friction with Brian, he understands the value of user experience and the ability to deliver a technical solution. I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again!
Questions people ask
How many days a month do I need?
As many or as few as you need. You can book a regular set of days, such as two days a week, or keep time in reserve and call on it when you need it, with sufficient notice.
Is there a minimum term?
No. You can stop whenever it stops being useful.
Can we change the days month to month?
Yes. With sufficient notice, I'll fit around what your team needs.
Do you work remotely or on site?
I work remotely by default and I'm happy to come on site when it makes a real difference. Travel and accommodation for on-site days are charged on top.
