What good staff specialist work looks like

  • A written problem statement and one measurable outcome before work starts
  • A first phase you can stop after without losing the work
  • Named deliverables (a model, a playbook, a hiring plan), not 'support'

Red flags

  • Monthly retainers with no deliverable attached
  • Frameworks sold before anyone has looked at your numbers
  • A team that changes after the pitch

Questions

What does a staff specialist cost?

Guidance for business & operations work is $125–$250 an hour. Diagnostics $2k–$6k · projects $10k–$40k · fractional $4k–$12k/mo. Your brief gets an hours band and a budget check before anyone quotes.

Who answers a brief sent from StaffGuru.com?

The first verified consultant in this practice. Listings go live only after identity and portfolio checks, so nobody unverified sees your brief.

Do I pay to send a brief?

No. Sending a brief is free for clients. Consultants pay a published brief fee to respond, or you can pay for an exclusive brief that goes to one consultant only.

How is this different from a freelance marketplace?

Briefs are scoped before they are priced, consultants keep their engagement fee, and every number on the site comes from recorded events.

Are you a staff specialist?

This practice domain is unclaimed. Claim it and briefs sent here route to you once you are verified.

Free to list. No card. We verify identity and portfolio before anything goes live.
