A recent KPMG study shows that almost two-thirds of Swiss companies rely on external experts when managing large digital transformation projects like SAP S/4HANA migration.
This reflects a broader shift: many businesses face skill gaps in IT, finance, marketing, and design. Instead of waiting months to hire full-time staff, they bring in freelancers who can deliver results immediately.
Examples include:
Finance teams working with freelance experts during audits or complex projects
Marketing leaders using freelance platform support to launch campaigns faster
Startups posting freelance design jobs when they need fresh branding ideas
Tech teams using freelance marketplaces to find developers for short-term support
For freelancers, this creates opportunities to manage profiles more effectively, learn how to succeed in competitive fields like tech, and access support resources for creatives.
Platforms like Expert Connect – Freelancer Hub make this process easier by connecting companies with the specialists they need, while giving freelancers the visibility to grow their careers.
