The Second Shift

The Second Shift connects a network of thousands of highly-skilled, rigorously vetted female experts with forward-thinking businesses seeking outstanding talent for either hybrid, flexible, project-based, or full-time opportunities. Our partner companies include J.P. Morgan, Microsoft, Twitter, Etsy, Compass, JetBlue, One Medical, and many more. At The Second Shift, we wholeheartedly believe in the sweeping opportunities the on-demand economy presents to encourage diversity in the workplace and strengthen success for businesses of all sizes and industries. Given that executive-level gender diverse companies are 21% more likely to experience above-average profitability, The Second Shift makes it easy for companies to solve for diversity, equity, and flexibility by connecting them to the best independent talent the workforce has to offer. We are champions of flexible remote work as a solution for retaining female talent, and we firmly believe America will see more women in executive level positions if they are given opportunities to continue growing their careers even during transitional times like early motherhood. Time and time again, women are sidelined when they are faced with juggling work and family obligations, and we see this as a major loss of talent in the American workforce. As one of Fast Company’s top ten most innovative workplace companies, we are here to bolster the talent economy, and support women in making work, work for them!
