Creating Illustrator graphs from Excel files

Creating Illustrator graphs from Excel files

I'm looking for a graphic designer to help me out creating about 50 graphs in Illustrator (some pie charts but mostly column graphs), sticking to a set style. The job comes up two to four times a year. The right person would be involved every time, simply because it's a time-consuming job I can't do on my own.

Here's a link to the last report. The graph styles will be the same: http://www.icsaglobal.com/assets/files/pdfs/Policy2/FT-ICSA%20Business%20Bellwether%20Mar%202012.pdf

If you're highly experienced in creating Illustrator graphs from Excel files (keep in mind, this is not a straight-forward 'apply style' kind of job), then I'd like to hear from you.

I'm the in-house graphic designer and you'll be only working with me, so no major client contact is involved. I'm fun and easy to work with but I'm also picky and I'd like to find someone with the same eye for detail.

The job is coming up from the beginning of January. Please get in touch, if you're interested. At the moment I have no idea what kind of money is involved, as this is the first time I'll be outsourcing this, so for now I'm looking for quotes to get a feeling what a fair rate would be. However, I'd like to talk you through what's involved first, so you can decide yourself how long it'll take.

We're in London (near Regents Park) but I'm looking for someone who works from their own office or home. I'm working on a Mac with CS5.5. Our corporate typeface is Frutiger.

Hope to hear from you!
