Practical strata staffing and career resources

Free strata handover, staffing brief, role comparison and workload review checklists, with practical guides for businesses and professionals.

Prepare a portfolio handover

Record upcoming deadlines, scheme context, unfinished work, decision owners and access arrangements. A short, current action register is more useful than a large folder with no explanation of what needs doing next.

Brief a staffing requirement

Set out the reason for cover, start date, duration, working pattern, tasks and systems. Separate the requirements that are essential from those where there is room to discuss alternatives.
