The content on this website is provided for general information only.
Although we aim to keep information accurate and up to date, we do not guarantee that website content will always be complete, accurate, current or suitable for your specific circumstances.

We may choose not to progress an application, or may remove an expert from the network, at our discretion.
Where we introduce a business and an expert, the purpose is to help both parties explore whether there may be a suitable fit.
Unless we agree otherwise in writing, any introduction does not create an employment relationship, partnership, agency relationship or joint venture between Proven Professionals, the business and the expert.
Any work carried out by an expert, and any fees, scope, responsibilities, deliverables, confidentiality terms or payment terms, should be agreed separately in writing before work begins.
Proven Professionals is not responsible for any separate agreement entered into directly between a business and an expert unless we are expressly a party to that agreement.
Paid engagements arranged through Proven Professionals, including the Commercial Diagnostic, are contracted directly with CS Ventures Group Ltd, trading as Proven Professionals, under a written Client Services Agreement that sets out the scope, fee and responsibilities for that work.
