I have designed and executed numerous projects over the last 25 years, as a senior director of various entities and as CEO of my own company. Recently, I have drafted projects on behalf of 3rd parties. I can provide drafting services for business plans, whitepapers, studies, & briefing notes, from technical and non-technical narratives to commercial budgets and forecasts, from conceptualization to delivery. I have drafted project documents ranging in budgetary value from tens of $thousands to tens of $millions. I am skilled at drafting proposal documents for competitive bids, for capital raises, for investor pitches, and to government donors and international multilateral organizations such as the UN, EU, NATO, OCSE, World Bank, etc. For projects in post-launch stages, I have written uncountable reports, research studies, concept notes, situation updates, and communiqué. My subject range is wide. I have delivered results across highly varied fields, from the political-security sector to environmental remediation, renewable energy, oil & gas operations, broadband and telecommunications, tech sector initiatives, and humanitarian development projects & programmes. Apart from project narratives and commercial elements, I can also take care of the granular detail of bid documentation, collecting and arranging the myriad of documents required to qualify for tenders and bid processes. I operate with flexible hours and can comport with widely differing time zones east and west of my location in Switzerland. Recently, I worked with entities from the Australian east coast to the US west coast. I have long experience. I can help guide initiatives through launch phases and projects which have advanced to expansion phases. My work approach is disciplined. I meet deadlines, and I'm structured and organized. Apart from my hourly fee, I can work with other models, such as milestone payments. I look forward to helping you deliver your project goals. Respectfully Griff

I help nonprofits build the operational backbone they need to grow—clearer systems, stronger infrastructure, and the kind of internal systems funders, partners, and boards expect to see. I'm a nonprofit consultant with 25+ years of experience across the sector, including 13 years as a founding executive director, 7+ years of consulting, technical assistance, and federal grant review service for the U.S. Department of Education. I've built a nonprofit from the ground up, increased annual revenue 24x, managed multi-million-dollar funding portfolios, and designed grant and program operations systems for a national multi-site education network. Most nonprofit leaders I work with don't need more advice. They need clarity, structure, and someone who can translate what they're already doing into something organized, repeatable, and credible. I WORK BEST WITH NONPROFITS THAT ARE: • Growing faster than their internal systems can keep up • Early-stage or rebuilding and in need of foundational structure • Preparing for funding, partnerships, or organizational growth • Operating without clear SOPs, workflows, or documentation • Stretched thin and looking for someone to bring order to operations • Pursuing a fundraising strategy, not just a grant writer • Strengthening board, governance, or programmatic infrastructure WHAT I OFFER ON UPWORK: Nonprofit Operations & Systems • Workflow, SOP, and documentation development • Operational audits and process improvement • Internal systems design (tracking, reporting, project management tools) • Grant operations infrastructure—compliance, tracking, reporting • Vendor, contractor, and cross-functional coordination support Organizational Strategy & Infrastructure • Organizational assessments and capacity-building plans • Board development, recruitment, and governance support • Policy and procedure development • Program design, implementation, and evaluation support • Technical assistance and training for nonprofit teams Fundraising Strategy & Coaching • Fundraising strategy development across individual giving, events, corporate, and peer-to-peer channels • Donor engagement, stewardship, and retention planning • CRM cleanup, donor segmentation, and data strategy • Fundraising campaign content and copy support (appeals, stewardship messaging, sponsorship outreach) • Coaching for executive directors and development leads Funding Readiness • Grant readiness audits and snapshots • Funding strategy and prospect alignment • Organizational narrative review • 30-Day Funding Readiness Roadmaps WHAT I DON'T TAKE ON: To protect your time and mine, I do not offer: • Last-minute proposal turnarounds • Open-ended coaching without clear scope or deliverables If you're looking for someone who can take a holistic view of what your organization actually needs, let's talk. Note: While my consulting practice is primarily focused on nonprofit operations, I also take on selected projects in adjacent areas, including database setup, editorial work, website design, and systems design, for small businesses and mission-driven ventures.

I help founder-led and scaling companies build compensation and HR systems that support growth, protect margins, and reduce risk. With over 25 years of experience in executive search, compensation strategy, and HR advisory, I work directly with founders and leadership teams who need senior-level guidance without hiring a full-time HR executive. I hold four senior certifications: **Certified Compensation Professional (CCP) **Certified Executive Compensation Professional (CECP) **SPHR (Senior Professional in Human Resources) **GPHR (Global Professional in Human Resources) My work is especially valuable for companies moving from “informal and reactive” to structured and scalable. **Compensation Strategy & Pay Architecture **Market benchmarking and true-market analysis **Salary band design and internal leveling **Incentive and bonus plan development **Executive and leadership compensation modeling **Equity and long-term incentive guidance **Pay equity and internal alignment reviews I help companies answer critical questions such as: Are we paying competitively — and sustainably? How should we structure incentives as we grow? What is a defensible compensation range for this role? How do we align pay with performance and profitability? Fractional HR & Growth Advisory **Multi-state compliance and wage/hour guidance **Performance management structure **Organizational design and role clarity **Policy development and risk mitigation **Hiring strategy and workforce planning Clients typically engage me when: **They are growing quickly and need structure **Compensation decisions are becoming more complex **They want senior HR guidance without adding executive overhead **They need clarity before funding, expansion, or scaling My approach is practical, data-driven, and business-focused. I understand that every compensation decision impacts margin, retention, and long-term sustainability. Available for project-based work or ongoing advisory relationships.
