Future of Work is Liquid

Our mission is to bring to life and expand the liquid way of working - business relationships that are confined to full time employment and large corporations, but instead project based interactions focused on the highest impact work with the best talent. Liquid companies utilize knowledge-level contractors and vendors from around the world, engaging in a project by project basis. We are optimists for this liquid future of work because it is a win for both companies and the workforce alike.

 

In 2016, recognizing an untapped resource of smart, high-level executive women that needed more work flexibility, and a growing demand for the best talent working on the highest impact issues, we started a consulting company called FlexTeam. The FlexTeam members were subcontractors that worked on specific projects, and clients received very high quality, focused work products. Even in the early days when we had only 30 contractors on our bench, it was a big admin burden to manage the operations of the company. Unlike using employees where you have a payroll system to deal with onboarding, payroll, and benefits, there was no one system to deal with executing consulting agreements, collecting tax forms, agreeing to SOWs, collecting invoices, and paying them. So, we built software to solve our needs, and that is how Liquid was born.
