Our take

Most companies rely on a full-time employee model with a few contractors and freelancers. The wonder around this is whether you are employing experts and specialists in each field you need, as the full-time employee structure limits the pool you are hiring from. Catalant (formerly HourlyNerd) is a marketplace that connects businesses with experts.

Catalant operates similarly to a recruitment agency in that it problem-solves and does the searching for its users, though it specialises in the freelance field. Users can opt to implement Catalant "as a program", where it acts as an “always on” resourcing layer, or alternatively on a project-by-project basis - meaning the company is able to serve a wide range of clientele.

With the ability to find the right talent and experts quickly and at scale, the company has grown to be trusted by the likes off Shell and Crocs, as well as supporting numerous other clients across the financial, accounting, sales and marketing sectors.
