Gigs

Automatically match internal talent to critical business projects

Automatically match employees to short‑term projects and assignments based on skills, availability, and interests. Move faster, build skills through real work, and cut external hiring costs so your organization becomes more agile and productive.

Why organizations use Fuel50 Gigs

Modern work moves faster than headcount changes, leaving internal capacity underused, projects understaffed, and external hiring costs rising — an internal gig marketplace fixes this gap by connecting people to real work quickly.

Critical work stalls while costs rise 

Without an internal gig marketplace, managers rely on slow, manual sourcing and contractors, delaying delivery and increasing spend when internal talent could do the work.

Opportunities are invisible and uneven 

Employees can’t easily see stretch projects across teams, so development is ad‑hoc, engagement drops, and internal mobility lags because access isn’t transparent or fair.

Compliance and relevance are hard at scale

Generic postings create noise and risk — without audience targeting and governance, ineligible employees see gigs while the right teams miss them.

Staff critical work with confidence and develop talent along the way

Use internal gigs to fill projects quickly and give employees equitable ways to contribute, gain visibility, and grow skills on the job.

Create

  • Create and post short‑term projects in minutes. 
  • Show each gig only to the right employees by location or team. 
  • Manage everything in one place with simple list, edit, and delist controls — and let multiple owners share the workload.  

Discover

  • Auto‑match employees to projects based on skills, experience, and aspirations to staff critical work faster using internal talent.
  • Grow skills and mobility through real‑work, cross‑functional opportunities that feed analytics and show business impact.

“We really want to provide employees with transparency so they can understand their skill sets, recognize where they may have areas to grow, and have a better understanding of other opportunities they want to take on in the future.”

“The concept of a skills gap is always going to be there. The question is, what is your organizational strategy to be able to continue to close those gaps when the target is constantly moving on you? And this is where a platform like Fuel50 becomes very, very powerful.”

How Lennox Increased Internal Mobility And Employee Tenure Using Fuel50

On average, at Lennox, each internal move added five months of tenure. Multiply that across Lennox’s 4,800 tracked internal moves, and the company effectively retained more than 2,000 years’ worth of institutional knowledge. Each goal added to an IDP was linked to 25 extra days of tenure, and each developmental action to another 17 days. Even a modest level of engagement—just a few goals and actions—could easily translate into an additional year of tenure for an individual.

Gigs FAQ

Gigs helps you staff critical work faster, reduce external hiring costs, and unlock underused internal capacity so projects move without adding headcount. It also strengthens workforce agility by connecting people to real work that advances priority initiatives.
Work changes faster than org charts; without an internal gig marketplace, delivery slows, contractor spend climbs, and employees can’t see fair, transparent paths to contribute and grow. Gigs turns skills data into action by matching people to short-term projects and assignments where they add immediate value.
By routing work to qualified employees first, Gigs cuts reliance on agencies and contractors while accelerating time‑to‑staff on critical efforts. Targeted visibility ensures only relevant employees see and act on opportunities, reducing noise and wasted effort.
Gigs makes opportunities visible and explainable across teams, giving people equitable access to stretch work that builds experience and increases engagement and mobility. Real‑work experiences become a growth engine, helping employees develop skills while the business hits outcomes.
Audience Targeting limits visibility by attributes like location, business unit, and function so only eligible employees see applicable gigs—improving relevance and reducing compliance risk. Governance features ensure transparency around who can view and manage opportunities across the organization.
Co‑ownership and centralized administration let teams share workload, keep applicants moving, and manage visibility without losing reporting continuity, even as volumes grow. This prevents bottlenecks and maintains control as usage scales across business units and regions.
You can track gig participation, adoption, and skill growth and connect them to business outcomes like faster staffing and reduced external spend. These insights show how real‑work opportunities build capability while improving delivery and productivity over time.
