International digital consultant for NGOs

Bertie Bosrédon digital consultant for charities and NGO

My name is Bertie.

I've spent 25+ years in digital communications and online fundraising . Over the past 14 years, I've helped 150+ NGOs worldwide, across a wide range of causes.

I sometimes describe myself as a “pay-as-you-go” head of digital, providing support when you need it (with an indelible French accent).

Sometimes the work is about technology: choosing the right tools, fixing what's broken, and making systems talk to each other. More often it's about the human stuff: aligning teams, improving governance, using insight properly, helping suppliers deliver, and putting responsible AI frameworks in place.

I teach a practical NGO course at IE University.

Digital Transformation

After 50+ digital transformation projects, I know digital does not « transform » NGOs. People, clarity, and consistent decision-making do. I help you reposition digital with solid governance and robust processes, documented, across fundraising, communications, campaigning, and service delivery. With a clear direction, a realistic roadmap, and I équip teams with the skills to deliver.

Digital programme

I work with key stakeholders to turn strategies into a practical digital programme that helps engage your defined audiences. Through a tested methodology based on a co-creation process, we align your goals, audiences, channels, content, tools and data, so fundraising, comms, and campaigning start reinforcing each other.

AI framework

I help you introduce AI in a way that is safe, (a bit more) ethical, and genuinely useful. I identify clear use cases (and red lines), set simple rules for data and confidentiality, and put human accountability in the right places. I produce a clear guidance document your team will actually use: prompts, workflows, review steps, and governance, so you get the benefits without the hype nor the risk.

Online Fundraising

I work alongside your team to build insight-led digital fundraising that converts, without losing your organisation's voice. That means improving journeys end-to-end (from first click to long-term value), optimising or piloting new tools, testing creative ideas, and strengthening performance across acquisition, conversion, retention, and reactivation often with the use of predictive AI.

Technology signposting

I help you choose the right tools, for the right purpose, at the right pace. I gather detailed requirements, translate them into clear selection criteria. I help you throughout the process of identifying the right products, shortlist vendors, assessing proposals, managing the final selection for CMS, email automation, donation platforms, and light CRM. When needed, I scope pilot projects to test emerging technologies.

Mentoring & Upskilling

I help teams build digital confidence through workshops, mentoring, coaching, and tailored upskilling programmes. From audience engagement and fundraising tactics to responsible AI, I design sessions that fit your reality and give your team clear methods, reusable templates, and tips they will actually use. In parallel to my consulting work I teach at IE University, which keeps me close to the next generation of leaders and donors.

My principles

Approachable

I help large iNGOs and small charities with the same commitment. Many relationships become long-term, and I'm used to stepping in at short notice when something needs fixing.

Practical

I work from strategic objectives down to practical, measurable action. I'm direct and don't sugarcoat feedback (but it always comes with a French accent).

Mindful

I bring a genuine commitment to ethics and wellbeing into my work. That includes how I work with teams, manage projects, and navigate difficult decisions.
