FOUNDED MARCH 2024

Skills and needs, brought together.

WORK89 began with a simple question: what if finding the right person—and being found for what you can do—could happen in one trusted place?

WHY WORK89 EXISTS

Good professionals should remain findable.

Across many communities, plumbers, painters, electricians, welders, gardeners and other professionals wait at known roadside points holding placards with a skill and telephone number. Their ability is visible only to the people who happen to pass at that moment.

WORK89 extends that temporary visibility into a searchable work profile. A professional can list several skills, broad location, availability, approved work examples and an optional public work number. They can still use familiar pickup points, but may also remain at home, support family, tend a garden or complete other work while remaining discoverable.

For a client, WORK89 reduces the need to drive around hoping to find someone. Individuals, households and organisations can search by skill and area, review public profiles, agree clearly and build trusted records from real completed work.

THE CORE GOAL

Make it easier to find the person who can do the work.

WORK89 brings clients and professionals into one place. A client is not only a company: it may be an individual who needs an errand completed, a household looking for repairs, someone booking a mobile service, a small business needing temporary help, or an organisation recruiting specialist skills.

Instead of waiting for the right person to pass by, clients can search by skill and area, request a service directly or post an opportunity for suitable professionals to consider. Professionals can remain visible through complete profiles, respond to genuine needs and build trusted records from completed work.

The goal is broad enough for practical trades, professional services, care, wellness, technology, transport, events, property, creative work and every other lawful skill that helps people and organisations get things done.

ONE ACCOUNT

Today you may need a professional. Tomorrow, someone may need your skills.

BOTH SIDES OF WORK

Every WORK89 account can support both journeys. Members can find and hire people when they need help, while also offering their own skills and responding to opportunities from other clients.

OUR VISION

A world where every person’s skills and honest work can be seen, trusted and connected to opportunity—wherever they live.

OUR MISSION

WORK89 connects real people with nearby work and trusted professionals, helping them build visible skills, fair opportunities and a work history that moves them forward.

ONE PLATFORM, MANY PEOPLE

Local work is broader than one type of professional.

01

Professionals

Remain discoverable, show multiple skills and build a record from genuine completed jobs.

02

Households

Find gardeners, cleaners, repairers, tutors, mobile services and other local help.

03

Small businesses

Offer services, find customers and also hire the temporary or specialist help they need.

04

Organisations

Hire through a professional identity while keeping authorised representatives' private information protected.

WHAT WILL NOT CHANGE

Growth must keep the founding purpose intact.

Open access to opportunity.Professionals should never pay merely to apply for work.

Choice and dignity.Phone visibility, applications, invitations and opportunities remain choices.

Clear agreements.Task, location, timing, rate, payment and safety expectations should be understood before work begins.

Privacy by design.Private documents, messages and sensitive account information do not become public marketplace content.

Shared engagement records.A client's real need begins the engagement. When both participants confirm completion, WORK89 preserves one tamper-evident record for the client and professional without publishing their private details.

Trust from real work.Completed work, mutual confirmation and genuine reviews build a durable record.

No false promises.WORK89 improves visibility and connection; it does not guarantee employment, conduct, safety or payment.

THE JOURNEY

A birthday and a platform milestone.
