About the Platform & Maestro
Maestro is a tech-powered talent matching platform that puts talent first. We help exceptional talent take their portfolio career to the next level by matching them with exciting work from leading businesses across Australia. We believe the future of work is fractional, focused and flexible. When talent is engaged, supported and has the freedom to make their life work for them, they thrive. While clients get the exact skillsets they need, at the exact right time. It’s a true win-win.
We work with consultancies, enterprises and scale-ups of all shapes and sizes. The common denominator is quality - we don’t work with just any client; we deliberately choose those who meet the standards we expect for our talent.
No, it’s free for both talent and clients to join.
We’re here to pioneer a new way of working that puts talent first. We’re done with burnout culture, quiet quitting and the notion of living to work. Life’s too short to not enjoy the ride! We help talent find time for what matters to them now, by making sure they’ve got access to the work opportunities they’re exceptional at, and all the resources they need to deliver.
First up, we’re highly selective in who we represent. We’re not interested in building a big, impersonal database. By taking time to get to know talent, we ensure we find our talent projects best suited to their skills, ambitions and personal goals. After all, there’s more to life than a CV.
We’re also a long-term partner, working alongside our talent to help them build their personal brand, set them up for success for upcoming projects and make sure they’re supported to do great work. Most importantly, we help our talent move towards the goals that matter to them. We don’t just place people and speak to them again in ten years’ time. Give us a shot and see why we’re different.
Joining Maestro
It’s pretty simple. Click here to complete a short application form. You will receive a confirmation notice, and we will strive to get back to you within 24hrs to let you know if we think you’re a fit to move through the application process.
It starts with you filling out a simple expression of interest form online. We’ll review this to see if we think we’re a good fit for each other. From here, we’ll schedule a time for an interview where we’ll get to know more about you, beyond your CV. If successful, we’ll officially welcome you as one of our Maestros.
Yes, we require two recent professional references.
Finding a Project
We’re building out AI matching algorithms to help find the best matches. We go well beyond what we learn from your CV to include matching things like the right personalities, preferred working styles, personal goals, ambitions and more. By taking a holistic view, we help support our people so they can do their best work, without the burnout. Don’t worry, Maestro does not have a list of preferred talent who hog the jobs - we’re always looking for the optimum match and use technology to help us get there.
Absolutely - it’s completely up to you what projects you apply for and then ultimately accept. We’ve got your back, no matter the decision.
Yes. We’re all for remote working, flexible hours and work that fits with life. However, some projects may have requirements for onsite or hybrid working. Any requirements like this will be listed on all project postings.
Bingo! You’ve come to the right place. This is what Maestro is all about. We believe in a workforce that is fractional, focused and flexible. You know how you work best and what you need to deliver brilliantly - and we trust you to make it happen. Some clients may require time on site, or specific hours so make sure you’re all on the same page first.
Payments
