Helping Data Freelancers Win
Here's what they say about us:
"In my one to one calls with Ashley, he helped me not only narrow down my career aims and create the narrative to do so, but also boosted my confidence in my skillset and how to sell myself.
I felt more confident in searching for the right role, working with recruiters, and preparing my business as a result. It's so much easier when you have someone else's experience to help guide you as you begin, and he shared so many of his own learnings throughout the process!"
"I’m delighted to recommend Ashley, who has been instrumental in my successful transition to a new role as a data freelancer. Ashley’s insights into increasing visibility to recruiters and managing the application process were invaluable.
His expertise in CV writing helped me showcase my value and experience more effectively. Ashley implemented a tech solution that greatly enhanced communication and tracking of different roles. His involvement and support throughout the process were unwavering. Without his assistance, securing a new role in such a timely manner would have been challenging.
I wholeheartedly recommend Ashley to any data freelancer seeking a new role. His guidance and support can make a significant difference in your career transition."
"I recently had the privilege of working with Ashley during my freelance search and found his support incredibly beneficial. His one-to-one coaching provided clear direction, focusing my efforts on what mattered. I received support in drafting communications with recruiters and clients - practical guidance that helped me in maintaining professionalism in my interactions.
One of the key services I appreciated was the CV rewrite. With Ashley's input, my CV became more concise and appealing to recruiters, highlighting my key skills and experiences more effectively. Additionally, the mock interview sessions helped boost my confidence. They weren't just practice; they were constructive sessions that prepared me for real interview scenarios.
It's also worth mentioning that I didn’t have to pay for any of these services until after I secured a role. This arrangement was reassuring and showed Ashey's commitment to helping his clients succeed.
Overall, I would highly recommend Ashley for his personalised approach and deep understanding of the recruitment process. His expertise was a key factor in the progress of my career journey."

Once you apply, our team will review your profile to ensure we're a good fit for each other. Then we'll hop on a call to understand more about your goals and get started. We'll set you up on our Role Scout platform, create a dedicated private chat channel, and schedule regular coaching calls. We'll revamp your CV, LinkedIn, and other assets you'll use to land interviews. When it's time to interview, we'll help you research the role and company, and conduct mock interviews with you. Only once you've landed the role and been paid does the DFH fee kick in; all of our support up to that point is free of charge.
Once you've landed a role, our collaboration pauses (for now). The materials we've developed for you are yours to leverage in securing future positions, and your profile should be attractive to recruiters. You're under no obligation to work with us again (although we'd love it if you do). Should you choose to partner with us again down the line, we offer a 30% discount on the same program to assist you in winning your next role.
When working with each candidate, our goal is to secure them a role within a few weeks. However, many factors, some beyond our control, can influence this timeline. A broad skillset and extensive experience can expand the range of suitable opportunities, potentially shortening the time to find a role.
Project delivery falls squarely within your expertise as a skilled Data Professional, and it's your responsibility to ensure successful completion. While we're always available to provide your thoughts on contract-related matters such as extensions, renegotiating rates, or new project scopes, the actual delivery of the agreed work and handling any associated data issues are in your capable hands.
If your role is extended beyond the initial term, lucky you! The DFH fee is a one-time payment made after your first paycheck. There are no additional payments required, and you're free to decide how long you want to continue working with that client.
To increase your chances of being accepted, please carefully review the above requirements and strive to meet as many as possible. When applying, provide detailed information about your current situation, as this will assist us in assessing our ability to help you effectively.
We aim to secure roles for all data pros we partner with, but cannot guarantee this at present. Hence, we operate on a no-win, no-fee basis. We are dedicated to assisting you in finding a well-paid role, ensuring there are no charges for you until we are successful.
At the Data Freelance Hub, we've developed a wealth of resources to assist you on your journey. You're welcome to use our free job board on the website, pay monthly for the Role Scout platform, and follow our LinkedIn page to find roles. We also release content on our blog that you can learn from and apply to your business.
The DFH fee structure operates on a pay-when-you-win basis, meaning you don't pay anything until you've secured your next role and received payment. The role must have a gross contract value above £10,000 for the fee to apply, or we wait until the next qualifying contract you secure. If the contract is deemed to be Outside of IR35, the fee is £2,750 + VAT. For all other contract types, the fee is £2,000 + VAT. Full terms are detailed in the contract.
On this page, we discussed our pay-when-you-win model. We also offer the same service with an upfront payment option. With this option, you'll receive a £1,000 discount on the listed fee detailed above. The primary difference is that this does not include the pay-when-you-win guarantee, and support is capped at 3 months.
The Role Scout program is a partnership where we each play distinct roles. Our role is to help you identify relevant positions, determine who to contact, and how to reach out. We'll also collaborate with you to develop your sales assets and enhance your processes through coaching. Your role is to apply for the positions we find, take timely action on our recommendations, and stay engaged with the process. Once your sales assets are in place, the application process should take you about 1 hour per day.
The 'Role Scout' program streamlines finding and applying for roles using proven processes. We leverage our recruiter network and develop effective sales tools, enhancing your profile on platforms like Upwork. Managing these tasks alone is free but often inefficient, leading to extended downtime when you could be earning.
