The Ugly Duckling Skills Network

The Ugly Duckling Skills Network is a wide-ranging group of professional people, all independent or working in small businesses, who offer a set of capabilities that are often difficult for growing businesses to lay their hands on. A huge challenge for many entrepreneurs is their ability to get access to skills that they need before they can afford to pay somebody a full-time salary to perform the role. Through the Ugly Duckling Skills Network, growing businesses can obtain scaleable, high quality professional capability covering finance and accounting, company secretarial, human resources, recruitment, IT and marketing. The network also provides access to corporate finance, legal, insurance and health and safety expertise and, where our own partners are not suited for the role, to non-Executive directors.
