Connecting top independent professionals with financial services opportunities
Join a specialist platform built for people like you — independent consultants, subject-matter experts, interims, and fractionals whose skills are in demand from banks, insurers, fintechs, consulting firms, as well as investors focused on financial services.
Work with some of the biggest brands in the world
Become part of an independent platform built for financial services professionals
If you’re an experienced consultant or FS practitioner — perhaps ex-MBB, boutique, or Big 4, or with deep execution experience in banking, insurance, payments, fintech, or investment — you’re in the right place. Outsized connects exceptional independents with strategic and transformation projects at leading institutions, consultancies, and investor-backed firms. Every project is vetted and matched to your expertise — so you can focus on delivering impact, not chasing opportunities.
Your benefits as an Outsized member
As a member you will get access to a range of benefits curated especially for skilled independent talent. Most importantly, you will be proactively matched to relevant opportunities with our consulting firm and enterprise clients. What’s more, we’re actively supporting your independent career in a number of other ways, whether you are on an assignment through us or not.
Financial services projects and contract roles you won't find anywhere else
Outsized is a platform for highly skilled independent professionals, and the projects and roles we have from our clients reflect that. For short-term freelancing gigs, where clients auction out projects and select talent based purely on price, you are better served elsewhere. However, for longer term, well-paid, and often full-time projects and roles you're at the right place!
Independent, but never alone
Whether you’re on a project through Outsized or not, you always have access to our Community of other independent professionals. Here, you can connect and exchange ideas, find project collaborators, ask and answer questions, access valuable resources, and much more. It’s your always-on support network – because here, you’re independent, but never alone.
Digital events and local meet-ups
Outsized organizes a large number of digital events, such as client fireside chats, Q&As with subject-matter experts, peer learnings, and much more. In addition we are hosting in-person meet-ups in our key locations. These are sometimes purely socials, and at other times there will be a guest speaker with a Q&A.
Private by default. You're always in control
Outsized isn't a jobs board or an open talent platform. Clients can't browse profiles unless you've agreed to it. In other words, you're invisible until you choose otherwise. You decide which roles to apply for. We only share your profile with a client once you've said yes to a specific role. We never promote you without your permission. Not in talent pools, no unsolicited introductions, no surprises.
