What a fractional visual design consultant owns

A fractional visual design consultant is brought in for judgement on a specific question — an audit, a diagnosis, a recommendation, or a plan your team then executes. The deliverable is usually a written argument plus the sequence to act on it.

Consultant versus the roles either side of it

Unlike a manager or specialist, a consultant is not primarily there to produce ongoing output. Their leverage is in framing the problem correctly and in having seen the same situation elsewhere.

Hiring a fractional visual design consultant — questions

What does a fractional visual design consultant do?

A fractional visual design consultant does the same job as a full-time one, at a fraction of the week — typically one to three days — for companies that need the capability but not the headcount. Consulting is fractional by nature — engagements are short, defined by a question, and typically conclude in four to ten weeks rather than continuing indefinitely.

How much does a fractional visual design consultant cost?

Freelancers set their own rates, so the cost of hiring a fractional visual design consultant depends on seniority and scope. Pangea's part is fixed and visible: every candidate is shown with their own rate, a flat 15% platform fee, and the all-in total, itemised before you commit. There is no placement fee, no percentage of salary, and no charge for searching, shortlisting, or interviewing.

How is a visual design consultant different from adjacent roles?

Unlike a manager or specialist, a consultant is not primarily there to produce ongoing output. Their leverage is in framing the problem correctly and in having seen the same situation elsewhere.
