Project planning, scheduling, resourcing and budgeting.
Hi! My name is Fergus, but my sisters call me “Ghostie”.
They gave me this nickname because over the years I’ve helped them bring a number of personal projects to life with my love of organisation and assisting behind the scenes, much like a ghostwriter. It seems I can’t help myself but get excited and want to see them succeed!
Professionally, I have also gravitated towards this dynamic. I love hearing about people’s big, bold and creative ideas, and working with them to make them a reality. As well as someone who can bounce ideas around, I am detail-oriented, know how to pull together a collaborative team, keep things on schedule and under budget, and spread the word.
What I offer
Put simply, I want to add value to whatever you are working on and make a positive impact for however long you need.
I can provide strategic advice and consultation on planning your next initiative; assume responsibility for end-to-end delivery of your project plan, producing the identified outcomes and achieving engagement targets; or simply offer an extra set of hands when there is a serious situation of scope creep and you need help to bring an existing project to completion.
I am open to working with organisations and individuals in any professional sector. My recent clients have included government departments, universities, fashion and lifestyle brands, web designers, and coaching providers.
