Freelancer Limited, the company behind Freelancer.com and Escrow.com, is hiring! If you aren’t familiar with our sites, Freelancer.com is the world’s largest freelancing marketplace, which connects millions of employers to freelancers across the globe, and is even used by NASA.

If you think about the nature of our business, we have so many stories that have media potential. From the global freelance movement and the future of work itself, to individual accounts of the freelancers and entrepreneurs whose lives have been changed through our site. And that doesn’t even consider the tech/startup sector itself, the growth of Escrow.com, and our ownership of Loadshift facilitating the fast, reliable and cost efficient transport of freight.
