Upwork Enterprise provides a customized solution for larger companies to find, contract, and pay independent freelance talent like yourself. Upwork Enterprise clients range from fast-growing startups to global Fortune 500 companies and tend to have large teams of experienced hiring managers and hundreds of active projects.

Working with these clients can provide you with access to more high-quality opportunities and a steadier stream of work. This means less time spent searching and more time spent working.

If an existing client joins Upwork Enterprise


If you have an active contract with a client and they upgrade to Upwork Enterprise membership, your contract will be ended and a new Enterprise contract will be set up — all automatically. We’ll send you an email with details of the change and instructions on what to do next, and you’ll be able to continue working on your current contract until the new one has started.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where did Talent Cloud links go?

We’re removing Talent Clouds in an effort to make it easier for Enterprise clients to rehire freelancers they’ve worked with in the past. Instead of Talent Clouds, clients will have lists that they can access, organize, and share throughout their company.

On your side, you’ll notice we’ve removed the links to lists that you are on. These clients can still see you though, and contact you as they have before.
