Build a verified list of 300 UK B2B companies
I need a meticulous researcher to build a verified list of 300 UK B2B companies for a supplier-sourcing project. This is precision research against a written specification — quality matters far more than speed. A complete step-by-step guide exists for this project: the sectors to cover with exact targets for each, recommended sources and a checklist. The thinking is done — the job is careful execution. The guide is shared only with the freelancer I select. In brief: every company must pass a short set of verification checks every entry needs a defined set of data fields plus proof links, and certain types of company are automatically rejected under our screening rules. Full details are in the guide. Quality control: entries are audited at random against their proof links. Entries that fail will be questioned further. Scraped or AI-generated lists will not pass audit. PRICING: $300 fixed for the full 300 companies, released in stages — a small paid trial batch first, then the remainder as each stage passes audit. TO APPLY: start your proposal with the word LEDGER and briefly describe a similar list-building project you've completed.
Administrative Lead Research & Outreach Assistant
We’re a small East London brand studio working with newly-registered UK companies. We need someone to run the top of our outreach funnel: finding the right companies, finding the right person inside them, and preparing outreach that doesn’t read like a template. This is a structured, SOP-driven role — you’ll follow a written process (provided, and thorough) rather than invent one. We’re looking for someone who can work independently from clear instructions and make good judgement calls within them. What you’d do: • Pull newly-registered UK companies from Companies House (daily search, provided criteria) • Find the right contact — LinkedIn, company website, or verified email • Research one genuine, specific detail about each company (60 seconds each) and draft a short personalised opener • Keep a tracker accurate and up to date • Route anything price/scope-related straight to us — you’re never quoting or promising on our behalf What we’re looking for: • Comfortable with structured research — Companies House, LinkedIn, verification tools • Strong attention to detail; accurate entries matter more than fast ones • Clear written English — you’ll be drafting outreach copy, so writing quality matters • Able to follow a detailed SOP independently, without frequent check-ins • UK-based preferred (local knowledge helps with the research) Hours & rate: ~6 hours/week to start, room to grow as the pipeline does. £13–£18/hour depending on experience. Paid weekly, reviewed after the first fortnight. How to apply: tell us about a time you followed a detailed process independently and caught an error or judgement call the instructions hadn’t anticipated. Include your hourly rate. Shortlisted applicants get a short PAID trial (details on request) before anything’s agreed.
