## About this task

This boutique law firm advising life-science companies (51–200 employees) is looking for a director PR & Communications for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Plan for announcements and updates to employees.

The work is too small to justify a hire and too important to leave to chance. It is a law firm; confidentiality is absolute and every file is handled under supervision.

The team sits in Jacksonville. Everything can be done remotely; an occasional visit is welcome and never required for the first month. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected. About 1 hour a week should overlap with the team's day (ET).

## What you deliver

- Write the communications plan for an office move or reorganisation, with messages by audience.

- A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

- One round of edits after the company's review is included

- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

## How the work runs

- Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared

- Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback

- Last day: final version and handover note

**Duration:** 1 to 2 weeks. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included.

## Tools

Notion Slack

## Who fits

- 10-15 years of hands-on work as a PR & Communications, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in Notion and Slack

- Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate

### Nice to have

- Comfortable explaining numbers or decisions to a non-specialist reader

- A habit of asking one clarifying question early rather than five late

## Not included

- Work outside the scope written in the brief; extra items are quoted separately

- Managing other contractors or employees

- On-call availability outside the agreed window

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.

## What happens after you say you're interested

1. **Within one working day** A recruiter writes to you to confirm your hours and the rate you want.

1. **You agree the rate** You and the recruiter fix an exact rate inside the company's range. You decide whether to go ahead.

1. **With your written OK** The company sees the anonymous profile below. Most companies answer within three working days.

1. **Start** You sign the task agreement and the company's confidentiality terms through Deftridge, and begin on the date above.
