If you're hiring a contract engineer in the UK, you can now post a free job listing and receive amazing applications directly into their inbox - no recruiter, no commission!

You can instantly reach over 6000 contractors and 500 pre-vetted experts.

The legacy SaaS pricing model has been deprecated. I've finally concluded that it just didn't align with our customers hiring habits, resulting in high churn that made significant growth impossible.

Why go free? Because as a bootstrapped founder, I can't afford to keep pursuing a model that's not profitable, but the platform works too well to shut down!

I've placed dozens of amazing candidates at companies like Google and Economist Impact, and even hired them for my own consultancy, Measured. Even now, applications are pouring in for companies like Wonderbly.

Those candidates were placed without any recruiter or commission, directly saving companies £10,000s in agency fees.

I've made a difference to companies and contractors alike, and I want to continue doing that.

Huge thanks to my network, my clients and fellow contractors, for supporting the long, wild and challenging journey of this solo entrepreneur and his small team of occasional freelancers. 🙏

I'll be continuing to support the platform and identifying the next steps.
