Dear contractors

It’s been a great 6 months for contracting. We’ve seen some change in the type of roles available—and also in the length of contracts. Recently they seem to be under 3 months, unlike the good old days! However, these short-term roles are often being extended further.

Word on the street tells us that this upturn in contracting is likely to continue for the rest of the year.

We’re always on the look out for new contractors to join our talent pool. Right now we’re specifically looking at contractors with a background in Policy, Project Management, Planning and Reporting, Business Analysis, Strategy, Human Resources and Communications.

If you’re already registered with us and have recently updated your CV – please email a copy in so we can keep your profile with TJG current.

Happy contracting!
Heather

Employers! Looking for your next great contractor?

If you’re a government employer looking for a contractor, the Johnson Group is the preferred agency of many hundreds of high-quality public sector contractors. Our contractors work primarily in the areas of policy, project management, acting management, research and evaluation. They already have a wealth of experience in government, so you won’t have to waste time teaching them the basics—they already know how to write briefings, cabinet papers, and do literature reviews.

Many employers are put off by the common misconception that hiring contractors is always expensive—it doesn’t have to be! Give us a call to talk about your budget, and we will find someone to suit you.
