The future of the contingent workforce

Flexible. Convenient. Seamless.
That’s how contingent work should be, and that’s why we exist.

Contingent talent plays a crucial role in enabling enterprise companies to run. Contingent Talent enables growth, speed, efficiency, innovation, and competitiveness.

However, the way this workforce is sourced & managed today is the opposite. It’s not fast, efficient, or tech-enabled.

Enterprise companies and Contingent Workforce programs do an incredible job working within fragmented models that were designed not only before AI, but before technology enabled more transparency, flexibility, and a seamless user experience. Talent, contingent talent buyers & hiring managers experience the benefits of technology in their personal lives daily, but don’t have a similar experience in their professional lives when it comes to their contingent needs.

That’s why we built Lifted, an Upwork Company

A supplier, powered by state-of-the-art technology & brought to life by the people, expertise, and world-class service behind it.

Contingent work is evolving. The way it’s managed should, too. Lifted was created to help enterprises take the next step, without disrupting what’s already working.

We act as a tech-enabled contingent workforce supplier built for speed and cost efficiency. Lifted supports independent contractor sourcing, Staff Augmentation, AOR, EOR, Outsourcing, and SOW engagements within existing enterprise programs around the world. Globally. Compliantly. Seamlessly. All delivered through one supplier that supports Contingent Workforce programs and hiring managers with all contract types, globally, with a combination of service and technology that enables companies to plug Lifted into their existing Contingent Workforce program setup.

We believe contingent work is an essential part of the future of work. Our vision is to become the global standard for engaging contingent talent, with confidence, transparency, and on a global scale. We’re proud to support the teams shaping the future of work.

Thanks for being part of our journey. Ernesto Lamaina General Manager, Lifted, an Upwork Company
