Project Management
For Freelancers
As an independent worker, I understand the challenges of working solo as a freelancer. Through my network of friends and former colleagues, I have connected with other designers who have also embarked on the path of working independently. Many of these designers specialise in design work and occasionally require project managers to assist with larger projects.
Case Study | Stir Creative
Stunning output, created by an amazing individual.
Stir Creative is led by Rebecca Hannah (Becks). Becks is a talented designer I met when she stepped in to work on specific projects during a previous contract role.
We quickly developed a professional relationship and when I started my own venture, I reached out to Becks to offer my assistance. Initially, I provided support with large-scale proposals and estimates, but our collaboration soon expanded to include client communications.
During the school holidays, I even took over managing Beck's inbox so she could take a break and spend time with her kids. As a fellow freelancer, I fully understood the importance of being able to log off and trust that work would continue in my absence. Our mutual understanding of the freelance world and respect for each other's clients and relationships made our collaboration seamless and enjoyable.
Beck is an amazing human being, with an incredible talent in design. Her bespoke presentations continue to amaze her clients and I’ve been privy to many senior leaders who have been blown away by her work.
She is not only brilliant, but kind, approachable and generous.

“An important part of being a freelancer is having someone you can trust to keep the doors open and clients happy when ‘life’ happens. Carron is that person for me. I know I can pick up the phone and have her look after everything – it’s priceless.
I have complete confidence in the way she quickly picks up where I left off. Her depth of experience has given her an ability to intuitively read situations, quickly react and keep the project on target.
I have also worked alongside Carron where her project management experience with large clients has been invaluable to me. She has created complex estimates, timelines and kept everyone updated through the life of projects – things I find virtually impossible while I’m designing.
I’ve found great comfort in knowing that Carron will look after my clients the same way I do (sometimes better). My clients love the way she anticipates what they need.
I could not recommend Carron more highly - she is not only a consummate professional but thoughtful and kind - I love working with her.”
