ELLIS ANDERSEN
OUR WORK
Ellis Andersen has been working on government and non-government, sports, arts and cultural events and projects for many years, sometimes in teams and sometimes as individual contractors. We grow our team with additional expertise when the project needs it, and we get involved as expert help in other people’s teams when they need us.
We do design and visioning of projects; strategic, business and operations/delivery plans; feasibility reports, writing, comms and marketing work; finance contracts and compliance management and reporting; stakeholder and public engagement; delivery and post-reporting….
Our team is just as happy in the front line as we are in the back room!
When you’ve got something coming up that is slightly out of scope for your existing resource, and you need some help hitting the targets and extracting the best value possible, get in touch!
