Hire the Best Facilitation Freelancers
in the United Kingdom

Are you looking for a professional freelancer who will get the job done quickly and to a high standard? Look no further! I am a dedicated and versatile professional with a blend of entrepreneurial, educational, and employability experiences. I ran a jewellery business for 8 years, have been a teacher and private tutor for 6 years and have experience in facilitating/training, marketing and tourism. Employability is one of the fields I am most passionate about. Whilst working with students, I have done a lot of career coaching and have helped students identify their key skills. This was my favourite part of my roles as a Progress Coach in a college and Work Placements Coordinator in a University. I was also trained as an Employment Advisor. Having a 'portfolio career' and balancing several things at once has kept me excited and ready to thrive with whatever I start. My varied experiences have enabled me to develop several skills, such as administration, communication, adaptability, organisation and empathy. Currently, I do regular freelance work as a Business Studies Tutor online in the evenings and am a Facilitator in schools where I deliver various sessions to students. I like variety, so am open to many different opportunities! My biggest achievement to date is running my jewellery business over several years. I started it when I was 17 years old and remained dedicated to manage it alongside my studies. Some of the things I did whilst running my business were as followed: * Used market research to design and produce jewellery by hand that would meet the demand of the industry * Stayed organised and up to date with administrative tasks, such as stock control spreadsheets * Recruited brand ambassadors and influencers to help promote the business * Digital marketing and social media management to drive sales, customer loyalty and expand brand exposure * Delivered great customer service and 24/7 management of the business - received many great reviews and maintained "Star Seller" status on Etsy for several consecutive months before selling my supplies and closing down the business. I have worked hard on developing a range of skills and experiences that I can use to support you with your projects. I love diving into new things! Please see my profile as I have included most of my employment on it. Any questions, feel free to reach out! Regarding education, I have a degree in Management and Entrepreneurship and a teaching qualification (DET/DTLLS).

I structure complex information so it can be understood, used, and acted on. This typically involves high-stakes presentations, data-heavy reports, or communication systems that need to scale — where clarity directly affects understanding and decision-making. Alongside a part-time design leadership role, I take on a small number of external projects where structure, clarity, and visual thinking are critical. Most of my work begins where content is already complex — but not yet clearly organised. That’s often where communication breaks down: in reports that are difficult to navigate, presentations that don’t land, or data that is technically correct but hard to interpret. My background is in information design (The Guardian, Kantar), combined with product and delivery experience. I work across the full lifecycle — from early framing through to production-ready outputs and systems that teams can continue using independently. --- What I do This shows up in three types of work: - Strategic presentations — investor decks, internal strategy, technical narratives - Data visualisation and infographics — reports, editorial, dashboards, storytelling systems - Communication systems — templates, guidelines, and repeatable visual frameworks --- How I approach projects Design is not a final layer — it’s a way of structuring thinking. The work starts with clarity: - what needs to be communicated - how the information is organised - where complexity needs to be reduced From there, I develop visual systems that make the material clear, consistent, and scalable. Where needed, I introduce structure — timelines, hierarchies, or delivery frameworks — so the design reflects the logic of the content, not just its appearance. --- Clients and recognition I’ve worked with organisations including The Guardian, The New York Times, Google, Deloitte, OECD, IBM, and the United Nations — typically on work where clarity, scale, and stakeholder alignment are critical. - Information is Beautiful Award (Silver) - Macmillan Prize for Illustration (Highly Commended) - Work published in The Guardian, Fast Company, and The Atlas of Infographics (Taschen) --- Working together I work on projects where: - complexity makes communication difficult - clarity affects decisions, not just presentation - the output needs to scale beyond a single deliverable If you’re working on something along those lines, feel free to reach out with a bit of context — I’m happy to take a look and see if it’s a good fit. --- Selected testimonials “Zhenia is a phenomenal designer who consistently over-delivered on expectations. His portfolio is very impressive and I would recommend his expertise without hesitation.” — Sean McClure, Brand Strategy Executive “Zhenia is a very talented designer and a delight to work with. He produced excellent data visualisation work for a particularly demanding client, remaining positive and professional throughout.” — Lisa Grundberg, Senior Editor, The Guardian “I had the pleasure of working with Zhenia on a number of projects. Not only is he a highly talented designer and illustrator, but also one of the most level-headed and collaborative colleagues I’ve worked with.” — Mark McClure, Founder, Mark McClure Studio

I help organizations solve their toughest people development challenges - whether that's fixing a failing AI rollout, designing high-impact learning programs, or building capability frameworks that actually change behavior. What I bring: 20+ years of senior-level experience in HR and organizational change at global companies like Morgan Stanley, HelloFresh, and Babbel. I've built learning functions from scratch, managed multi-million dollar talent budgets, rolled out digital transformation programs across multiple countries, and helped thousands of people develop capabilities they didn't know they had. I bridge the gap between theoretical best practices and what actually works in practice - accounting for politics, constraints, and the reality that your people are already overwhelmed. My expertise spans: AI Adoption & Implementation Most AI rollouts fail because organizations treat them like software deployments. I help you diagnose what's actually broken - governance gaps, capability deficits, manager readiness, cultural blockers - and build concrete plans to fix it. This includes readiness audits, enablement playbooks, governance frameworks, and implementation roadmaps. Instructional Design & Learning Development Creating learning experiences that drive measurable behavior change, not just completion rates. I design everything from bespoke leadership programs to interactive eLearning (Articulate 360/Rise, Storyline) to compliance training that people don't hate. I embed outcome-driven evaluation models (NPS, case studies, logic models) so you can prove ROI. Leadership & Management Development Designing and delivering programs that transform managers into effective, empathetic leaders. This includes curriculum design, facilitation, coaching frameworks, and manager enablement strategies. I've crafted flagship leadership programs for companies across Europe and presented results to boards. Organizational Change & HR Strategy Strategic consulting on L&D function audits, future-ready workforce strategies, early career pathways, and talent development frameworks. I help you navigate complex transformations - whether that's AI adoption, digital upskilling, or building learning cultures that actually stick. How I work: Evidence-based, no corporate jargon - I focus on outcomes you can measure Fast turnaround without sacrificing quality - I understand business timelines Strategic thinking meets practical execution - I don't just give you a strategy deck; I build the materials you need to execute Stakeholder management - I've presented to boards, navigated complex political landscapes, and built buy-in across skeptical audiences What clients typically hire me for: Diagnosing why their AI adoption rates are stuck despite training investment Designing interactive eLearning courses and digital skills campaigns Building leadership development programs that produce measurable behavior change Creating governance frameworks for AI that enable experimentation without compliance risk Auditing L&D functions and developing future-ready talent strategies Developing capability frameworks and learning pathways for complex roles Facilitating workshops to build leadership alignment on strategic initiatives Recent work includes: AI readiness audits and enablement playbooks for mid-market organizations Leadership curriculum design and facilitation for global tech companies Compliance training for regulated financial services (that people actually engaged with) Neurodiversity and DEI training programs Career coaching and talent development frameworks Digital learning campaigns using Articulate 360, Rise, and other authoring tools Let's talk if you need: Someone who understands both the people side and the technology side. Someone who can think strategically but also roll up their sleeves and build the actual materials. Someone who's navigated the politics of organizational change and knows how to get things done.
