We’re making a big change at SpareHire, and we want you to be the first to know about it. We’ve renamed SpareHire to better reflect who we are and what we do, and we’re thrilled to introduce our new name: Graphite.

We started SpareHire in 2014 with a vision of giving companies and consultants a new way to find each other and work together. Over the years, we’ve realized that our value extends far beyond just filling talent gaps. We’re driving a major shift in the way work gets done across a variety of industries.

Leading investment firms, professional services firms, and Fortune 1000 companies have been repeatedly coming to us—not for a “spare hire”—but to accelerate performance, innovate, and operate with more agility and flexibility. Additionally, the consultants we provide are experts in their fields, capable of driving meaningful impact within a given organization. We believe Graphite more closely aligns with the value we are providing and the caliber of the clients and experts we work hard to serve every day.

Why Graphite?

We chose the name Graphite for a number of reasons—not just because we loved the way it sounded.

Graphite is a flexible and dynamic material that strengthens under extreme pressure, transforming into diamond. Its unique properties make it valuable in many critical applications. Our clients turn to our platform for the same flexibility, dynamism and strength under pressure, and we hope these qualities continue to come to mind when you think of our firm.

A New Platform and Brand Identity

Along with our name change, we have launched a new and improved brand, with a new look and a new web platform (www.graphite.com).

More importantly, we have renewed our pledge to continue to bring our clients the world’s best business experts, help independent experts find meaningful work, and ensure the overall success of our community for years to come.

We hope you’ll join us in celebrating this major step for our growing company, and we look forward to continuing to work together in the future.

Best Regards,

Vikram Ashok
