In the modern business environment, forward-thinking companies understand that getting sustainability right today is crucial for long-term success. They know that if they don’t, they will struggle to comply with regulations and to meet stakeholder expectations moving forward.
But the thing is, ‘getting sustainability right’ looks different for every company. Each has its own unique situation, complete with a unique set of goals and challenges.
The other thing is, no matter what these unique goals and challenges are, companies need top-quality sustainability talent to achieve them.
But top sustainability talent in general is increasingly becoming more difficult to attract. So how the heck are companies supposed to attract the specific sustainability talent they need to achieve their unique sustainability goals?
Well, we’re glad you asked.
Because Dazzle’s customizable sustainability services offer the perfect solution here, giving you access to all the sustainability talent you need, whenever you need it.
But what exactly are we talking about when we say ‘customizable sustainability services?’
What are Dazzle’s customizable sustainability services?
Sustainability services essentially refers to the specialized expertise and solutions provided by freelance sustainability professionals. To put it another way, you can think of sustainability services as sustainability ‘staff on-demand’.
Instead of trying to attract full-time sustainability employees, you can use specialized sustainability services whenever you need them, in order to address any specific sustainability challenges you may have.
With Dazzle, our world-class sustainability services are easy to access, and customized to meet your unique business needs.
Below you can take a look at our stress-free process. (This is how we match you with the customized solutions you need within 48 hours!).
The Dazzling process
Are you ready to be Dazzled? (Our technical definition of ‘Dazzled’ is ‘to have all of your sustainability-related needs met in the most seamless, customized way possible’).
If so, the process is quite simple.
1. Understanding your needs
First things first, we want to understand exactly what you’re looking for.
To let us know, you are welcome to submit an online request. Here you just type in the specific expertise necessary, the years of experience you’re looking for, the language(s) required, your timezone, and your email address.
Or if you prefer, you can book a free call with us to discuss. Either way, our team will work with you to understand your needs, goals, and timeline.
2. Receive matching expert profiles
Once we’ve received your call or request, within 48 hours, you will receive several handpicked Dazzle freelancer profiles matched to your exact needs. (Expertise, seniority, language, timezone, budget).
From here, you can decide who you would like to interview and receive a proposal from.
3. Receive a tailored proposal
After a quick call with your chosen expert or experts to discuss your needs, you will receive a tailored proposal, detailing exactly how your objectives will be achieved.
Once you’re happy with the proposal and you give us the green light, you are officially matched, and the collaboration can begin.
As exciting as that may sound though, you might still be wondering, why choose Dazzle over other options?

Sustainability service success story: Nedspice Group
Last year, as part of their preparations for CSRD compliance, Nedspice Group set out to complete a Double Materiality Assessment for the 2023 fiscal year.
To make it happen, they needed an experienced CSRD expert, so they turned to Dazzle. Within days, we connected them with Chi, a seasoned expert whose knowledge and language skills made her the perfect fit.
Over the course of three months, Chi worked closely with the Nedspice team to complete the project, leaving the client well-prepared and worry-free regarding the CSRD.
Renée van den Elsen, Nedspice Group’s sustainability manager, was very happy with the whole process:
‘’We had a great experience working with freelancer, Chi. She brought a wealth of knowledge on the sustainable regulatory landscape and guided us perfectly through our Double Materiality Assessment. The feedback she gave on our current sustainability strategy was very valuable, concise, and practical. Overall, we would highly recommend Chi to any organization trying to enhance their sustainability strategy. A big thanks to Dazzle for the perfect matchmaking.’’
You have no idea how happy feedback like this makes us, and thankfully, we have many success stories, so generally we’re very happy!
