We needed a CFO for a Series A fundraise. GigLink had a shortlist of three verified candidates on our desks in 36 hours. The video pitch feature was everything — we knew exactly who we were hiring before a single call.

James B.
CEO, Series A SaaS — Sydney
★★★★★

Saved 65% versus our old advisory firm. Same quality, better communication, and I didn't have to talk to a single recruiter. GigLink is just… better.

Annika S.
COO, Manufacturing SME — Brisbane
★★★★★

Eight years freelancing and GigLink is the first platform that treats finance professionals with actual respect. My rates, my clients, my terms. Finally a platform that gets it.

Rachel L.
Fractional CFO, CPA — Melbourne
★★★★★

Our books were an absolute disaster. GigLink matched us with a Xero-certified bookkeeper in 48 hours. She sorted 18 months of chaos in two weeks. Worth every cent.

Daniel K.
Founder, Retail Brand — Perth
★★★★★

I'd been on Upwork for three months trying to find a decent tax specialist. Posted on GigLink on a Tuesday, had three verified options by Thursday. Completely different universe.

The transparency is what got me. I could see the hourly rate, credentials, and watch a pitch video before I even sent a message. Hired same day. Best financial decision I've made.

Tom W.
MD, Property Group — Gold Coast
★★★★★

I joined GigLink as an expert six months ago and my billings have doubled. The brief system means I only go for work I actually want. No more awkward cold pitches to people who ghost you.

Nina K.
Tax Specialist, CPA — Adelaide
★★★★★

We run a 60-person manufacturing business. GigLink found us a part-time Financial Controller with ASX experience for a fraction of what a full-time hire would cost. Absolute no-brainer.

Chris R.
CEO, Manufacturing Co. — Newcastle
★★★★★

GigLink should exist in every industry. Post a brief, watch pitches, pick your person. It's so obviously the right way to hire. Why did this take so long to exist?

Sophie J.
COO, AgriTech Startup — Darwin
★★★★★

Our CFO left six weeks before EOFY. GigLink had an interim replacement on a call with us within 24 hours. Genuinely saved our year. I tell every founder I know about this platform.

As a CPA with 12 years experience I was sceptical about another platform. But GigLink is different — the vetting is real, clients are serious, and I set my own rate. Booked out three months ahead now.

Grace F.
Fractional CFO, CA ANZ — Brisbane
★★★★★

We're a 12-person agency. Never needed a full-time finance person but always needed finance help. GigLink lets us dial it up during busy periods and dial it back when it's quiet. Perfect model for us.

Lachlan M.
Director, Creative Agency — Melbourne
★★★★★

Three words: watch the pitches. I hired our bookkeeper because her video was so confident and clear. She's been with us 14 months now. Never going back to the old way of hiring.

Priya O.
Founder, E-commerce — Sydney
★★★★★

I used to dread EOFY. Now I have a GigLink tax specialist I call every June. She knows our business, she's CPA verified, and she charges a fraction of what our old firm did. Couldn't be happier.

Alex M.
Co-Founder, SaaS — Adelaide
★★★★★

The admin-free experience is what does it for me. GigLink handles invoicing, payments, everything. I just do the work and get paid. It's what freelancing should always have been.
