The Ivel Partnership was founded by us, Jody and Anna, during a pivotal point in our careers. With over 40 years of combined experience in the public sector and corporate world, we recognised the need to create a work-life balance that allows us to prioritise both professional excellence and the values that matter most to us—family, community, and authentic impact.

Our goal is to be more than just a name; we strive to create an environment where each person is valued as an individual, not just a cog in a machine. We are driven to make a difference, offering the flexibility to organise our lives and work in a way that inspires us and those we work with.

We live our ethics and values. We believe in transparency - with our clients concerning our fees, with you working with us as an associate concerning your rates.

Working with The Ivel Partnership means engaging in a variety of challenging projects. You’ll have the chance to work both as part of a collaborative team and independently with our clients, all while benefiting from the support and insights of your Ivel colleagues. We believe in a straightforward approach: we keep things simple, prioritise collaboration, and are dedicated to making a lasting impact for our clients—with plenty of enjoyment along the way.

As an Ivel Partnership Associate, you'll join a vibrant network of professionals who share your values and commitment to excellence. Our community offers more than just collaboration—it provides a space for meaningful connections, where you can exchange insights, find a sounding board, and enjoy regular e-cuppas. We understand that contracting can sometimes feel isolating, and we are here to ensure you always feel supported and connected.

As a sole trader, limited company or self-employed individual working with us, you’ll have full flexibility to determine your workload and schedule, empowering you to balance what truly matters. Whilst we are based in Bedfordshire, there are no limitations on where you are based in the UK.

If you’re interested in working with us or simply want to learn more, feel free to reach out—we’re here to answer any questions.
