Advisors needed
We're looking for advisors to help shape and interrogate Dovetail’s strategy
What Dovetail needs
- Three advisors with complimentary skills (see below)
- Advisors will provide input from June 1st to September 29th 2023
- Each advisor will receive £300 for 4 hours of their time
Advisor roles
TBD
Advisor with charity experience
You work at a charity in a digital role. You’ve written multiple briefs. For example, a website build. You’ve played a key role in selecting agencies to work with.
TBD
Advisor with matchmaking experience
You connect charities with agencies. You often find yourself signposting charities to useful resources and recommending potential suppliers.
TBD
Advisor with funder experience
You work at a funder. You support charities and understand their needs. You’ve facilitated connections between charities and suppliers.
Noam
Product Lead with agency experience
I run an agency working with non-profits. I have lots of business development experience. I care about helping charities find a partner that fits.
Clarifications
Advisor engagement
Each advisor will contribute 4 hours of their time:
- 2 x 1hr calls with Noam
- 2 x 1hr calls with Noam and rest of advisory group
There will be no other requirements in between calls.
What each advisor gets
Each advisor will receive £300.
This can be paid directly to individual advisors or to their organisations. If you prefer not to be paid direct, we will:
- Plant 1,250 trees for £300 (using Ecologi), or
- Make a £300 donation to a charity of your choice
Advisors get the opportunity to shape Dovetail. An important service that helps charities make good decisions about hiring digital agencies.
What happens after September
This depends on Dovetail’s funding and how we decide to manage Dovetail after September. Advisors could continue as they are, or evolve into a working group (if that works for everyone). We will talk about this together.
