When Airbnb approached us, we took this opportunity to collaborate with an online marketplace that has experienced massive growth and success in the gig economy. Read below to see how we were able to help the team at Airbnb:

Our challenge

Airbnb were looking for a Public Affairs Manager to oversee activity in the Australia and New Zealand region, developing policies and working with the media, government and community. This was an urgent hire for Airbnb and we were well placed to help them find some fantastic talent on our platform, quickly and easily.

The solution

Our Commtract algorithm matched a group of experts whose skills matched those that Airbnb required, and out of this selection Julian Crowley submitted his application for the role. He was successfully engaged given his strong experience in government advising a range of NSW Ministers.

What happened next?

Julian sure did impress the Airbnb team with his contract role becoming permanent soon after. Then after 2 years in the role, Julian moved to Singapore to lead Airbnb’s Corporate and Policy Communications division for APAC. In addition, Julian and Commtract both received NPS scores of 10/10 for performance and services provided.
