BOLD Acquires Flexjobs

Read Time1 Minute, 32 Second

Flexjobs.com the B2C remote job board community founded by Sara Sutton back in 2006 has been acquired by career company BOLD, which owns a number of brands including Live Career and MyPerfect Resume.

Sutton announced the news on her Linkedin feed this past weekend.

She writes;

As we enter a new year–I’m happy to share that 🌟we’ve been acquired BOLD!🌟 They are a company dedicated to “transforming work lives” and shares our long-term dedication to serving job seekers throughout their careers.

It’s wonderfully surreal and gratifying on many levels to know how this little company that I started from home while pregnant with my first child grew over the years to be one of the most important leaders in the remote job market. While doing so, we always focused on not just growing our company, but on helping to truly advance the understanding of why remote work works and what benefits it offers to individuals, teams, organizations, communities, and the environment.

We started as one of the very few players in the “telecommuting” space. We spent over a decade evangelizing and spreading the growth of remote and hybrid work, which then allowed us to play a significant support role in helping companies and job-seekers navigate the pandemic-forced global adoption of remote and hybrid. And as remote work continues to be increasingly normalized in the future, we’re honored to continue to be a trusted source and voice.

Flexjobs is a rare B2C success story in the jobs space. Few job boards/marketplaces today can turn job seekers into a revenue stream. But they curated remote listings way back before they were cool and turned them into a very prosperous business model via monthly membership fees for jobs that were hard to find.
