Our service is unique in a number of ways: First, our consultants are themselves experienced technical writers and so are especially adept at accurately profiling job roles. Second, through our own longstanding documentation consultancy work we have built up a vast network of technical writers. Third, our peer-to-peer assessment methodology — assessment of applicants by practising technical writers — gives us the edge in filtering applicants, that is, in seeing quickly who really does fit a particular role. Our approach is designed to give you, the client, a short-list that is the cream of the available talent. At present we have contractors working in Queensland, Victoria, NSW and WA. The domains straddle many fields: bio-engineering, financials, HR, petroleum processing, fibre optics and mining (both in-house and FIFO). Note: If your requirement extends only to a junior technical writer, we can provide you with a recent graduate who has had university training in technical writing.
