Stand out in a noisy job market

Ops roles are hard to hire for, and in this job market, companies are flooded with applications. With HG, you're pre-vetted and directly connected to hiring managers.

We'll fill your pipeline with flexible work

We hear you: You want access to jobs that let you flex — both your time and your hard-earned skills. At HG, you can start or grow your freelance career, or even turn a contract into a full-time role.

Build a profile that shows you at your best

We’ll help you build your HG Profile: a data-rich, outcome-focused profile that shows hiring managers exactly what they need to see for the role.

We wrangle contracts & payments

We handle payments with clients and direct deposit straight to you, so there's no going back and forth on redlines, payments, taxes, and compliance.
