Our story

Hi, I am Derek. After doing an interim project for Uber for 10 months, I'm now running my start-up.

From BCG to breathwork: Derek and Martin about building their dream

"The big difference between employment and freelancing is that I am setting the agreements with my client, instead of a partner or manager I am working for. This gives me more freedom in setting things up how they work for me, so that’s cool."

Community

You’re in control, but not alone.

Here we all choose our own projects, support one another, and create time to fulfill personal dreams beyond M&A and strategy.  

Hi, I’m Lisette. I've been combining freelancing and remote working for 3 years now.

Freelance life stories: Lisette van Niekerk

"Not only daredevils choose this lifestyle. The truth is: anyone can do it. All you need to do is quit your job, obtain a KVK license and give it a try. The option to explore freelancing is available to everyone in the management consulting industry."

Our beliefs

Balancing ownership, freedom & community

Ownership

Ownership

Highly talented, experienced, driven people shouldn’t be micromanaged. They can make the call on how to run projects successfully.

Freedom

Freedom

People do their best work when they choose the projects they are intrinsically motivated to do, and work with clients in a way they think is most productive.

Community

Community

Everybody wants to be free, but nobody wants to be alone. That’s why we invest in community initiatives and everybody is welcome at the Sweav office.

Hi, I am Benoit. I've combined starting a PE firm with freelancing.

From member to client – how to start a private equity firm from scratch

"When I quit a PE firm to start my own, I shrank personal financial commitments and became a member at Sweav. This way, I could do on-demand and flexible projects as an independent investment professional if I needed to earn money while pursuing my dream."
