Ways of Working

ABN 59 570 080 920

Helping businesses deliver clear, effective documentation with minimal onboarding.

I’m available for on-site work across the Sydney region, ideally around the North Shore, Central Sydney, and the West.

Hybrid arrangements are welcome and preferred.

Trading as Texterity Documentation & Training, I’m based in the Blue Mountains, with North Shore accommodation as required to support on-site work.

Ideally, I’m seeking direct engagements with small to medium-sized businesses, where I can deliver experienced, hands-on support without needing extensive onboarding. While I am open to contract opportunities should they arise, my focus is on working directly with business clients.

Depending on requirements, I will arrange suitable public liability and professional indemnity insurance.

Preferred Roles

Texterity specializes in product documentation, help guides, work instructions, and related requirements. The types of contracts sought include:

  • Remedial documentation – Reviewing, editing, and consolidating existing documentation suites and organizing them for publication on CRM or KM systems.
  • Product documentation – Drafting and publishing product documentation in collaboration with Product Development and Product Engineering departments.
  • SharePoint documentation – Configuring and populating SharePoint documentation libraries, managing document tagging and metadata schemas, and overseeing list and library management.
  • Technical proficiency – Familiarity with GitHub, Markdown, and related web publishing tools and techniques.

Technology

Texterity uses a Wintel Mac Powerbook which can run both the current OSX and Windows 10 with MS Office 365. Texterity can also use command-line publishing and documentation tools with assistance from ChatGPT. Various bespoke applications or specialised software may be deployed by agreement.

Rates

Texterity will negotiate rates on a case by case basis depending on the situation, technology, and requirements. (Click here for information on Technical Writer rates for Sydney Australia.) Texterity will maintain and submit timesheets with each invoice displaying time worked against agreed deliverables.

Contract and Commitment Fee – on agreement of an engagement, a proforma contract will be signed by both parties and Texterity will invoice for an initial 3-5 days work (depending on contract scope) payable in arrears.
