As & when needed
Like many charities in the healthcare sector, the client faced ongoing funding cuts and tight budgets. To protect frontline services, they needed to reduce operational costs without compromising productivity.
“We called on DataAlike to provide us with part-time staff for office support as and when we needed it,” explains Susan, a manager at the hospice.
“We spoke to a few companies before DataAlike, but most wanted to lock us into long-term contracts. DataAlike was far more flexible.”
The client discovered DataAlike through an online search.
Following an initial consultation, we provided experienced administrative professionals with relevant sector experience and the flexibility to work part-time, on-demand.
Candidate profiles were shared in advance for review, ensuring the right fit before onboarding. A dedicated Client Success Manager (CSM) oversaw the process — handling introductions, workflow setup, and ongoing communication.
The Solution
The Results
“On average, DataAlike provides us with two to three remote office support workers, two or three days a week. It’s reassuring to know we have help available whenever we need it.”
By switching to flexible, part-time staffing through DataAlike, the charity achieved:
-
£23,000+ in annual cost savings
-
Over 60% reduction in overall admin spend
-
Reduced pressure on internal teams
-
Reliable, on-demand support without long-term commitments
The Outcome
DataAlike continues to maintain a strong working relationship with the charity, focusing on responsiveness, transparency, and tailored support.
“We’re always provided with competent administrative staff who quickly understand what’s needed. Their experience means they adapt fast and don’t require constant supervision.”
