CONSULTANT ROSTER FAQs

Can two or more people submit a joint application?

Can two or more people submit a joint application?

We assess applications on an individual basis. Joint submissions are not supported at this stage. If a team works together, one person should apply as the lead consultant and clearly outline how the work would be delivered.

Is there a fixed daily rate? 

The daily rate shared in the call for applications is indicative and based on market analysis and current budget parameters. Rates above the indicative range do not automatically disqualify an application. However, price is one of several factors considered in the final assessment. 

Does proposing a higher rate affect my chances? 

A higher rate does not lead to automatic exclusion. That said, affordability and value for money are part of the overall decision when building the roster and assigning work. 

Is the daily rate inclusive or exclusive of VAT and taxes? 

The indicative fee range is exclusive of VAT. Final contracts will clearly specify whether VAT or other applicable taxes are included, depending on the consultant’s legal and tax status. 

When would contracts start? 

Contracts are expected to start from April onwards, depending on role and availability. Exact start dates will be agreed as part of contracting. 

Is this a full-time role? 

No. This is a consultant roster. Inclusion on the roster does not guarantee a minimum volume of work. Engagements are agreed on a case-by-case basis, depending on project needs. 

What time zone do consultants need to be in? 

ACAPS works as a distributed organisation across multiple time zones. There is no single required time zone. What matters is the ability to collaborate effectively with teams and meet agreed deadlines. Some assignments may require availability during overlapping working hours. 

Can consultants apply from any country? 

Yes. These are remote consultancy roles, and we work with consultants globally. As long as you meet the criteria outlined in the call and can contract legally as an independent consultant, you are welcome to apply. 

Will I receive feedback if I am not selected? 

Every applicant will receive an email with feedback confirming whether or not their application was successful. All applications are reviewed against the same criteria. 

If I am accepted onto the roster, does that mean I will be hired immediately? 

Being accepted onto the roster means you may be considered for future assignments. Each piece of work will be scoped and contracted separately. 

The success of our work depends on the integrity and diversity of our team.
