Meet up with like-minded consultants & freelancers that share the same passion!

Network effect

Become part of a community that thrives on pushing each other to excel, exchanging knowledge, and sharing tools to achieve success. We are committed to creating a platform that help you find a mentor, learn and progress.

Commission

Want to bring us a client or project? If so, you will get a direct commission (% depending on the deal size). Anyone can contribute and wear the salesman cap!

Referral

If you introduce your friend or ex-work colleague to our collective and they begin working on a project with us, you can earn £300 as a referral bonus.

Travels

Our team members frequently convene in European cities for a week or a weekend to collaborate on work and enjoy team activities. Hotels and food are covered by the company.

Project flexibility

Join the collective to get priority access to a flexible project that runs from 3 to 12 months—with opportunities for part-time and full-time missions.

Freelance Insurance

Our founders were self-employed for a long time, so they understand how stressful it can sometimes get if you miss workdays and are not well-insured. Therefore we are in the process of setting up a comprehensive coverage package.

How To Join

We frequently post job openings and contractor/freelancer requests on our social media pages and job platforms, such as AngelList and Workinstartups. However, we're also interested in connecting with new individuals and reviewing their CVs or portfolios. Please feel free to introduce yourself and share what you can bring to our collective.
