Access Strategic Expertise in Changing Times

You are missing an opportunity if you don’t take advantage of the contract workforce
  • Either the work falls on you or less capable staff, or it doesn’t get done
  • Your growth, or possibly even your survival as a business may suffer
Harness the gig economy to access talent and skills that you never could before
  • Most mid-sized businesses are missing specialist skills, at least some of the time - such as for strategic projects, when a key person leaves, or simply because they can’t afford, or can’t find, a full-time person
  • Engaging people on contract is more flexible than employing them
  • There is talent available, with experienced people who enjoy new challenges and want the flexibility of working as contractors short-term on projects, or on a part-time basis
The Way we Work
  • We are hands-on and prefer to work in the business rather than looking in from the outside.
  • Location is flexible – we can work in your offices or branches or from our own premises – whichever suits you and the project.

Why the name Delta Partners?

Delta symbolises change.

Delta is the first letter of the Greek word διαφορά - diaphorá, meaning difference.

The uppercase Greek letter Δ is used in mathematics to denote a change, for example, in:
the average change of y per unit x =
the change of y over the change of x.
