Online employment marketplace Expert360 has raised $12 million in an external funding round from existing investors and will hire a chief operating officer to work with founder and chief executive Bridget Loudon, as it looks to scale up its operations ahead of a possible public listing.
The latest funding round includes money from venture capital funds AirTree Ventures and Rampersand and investment management firm Perennial Value Management. A $5 million convertible note previously raised, with less well-known Sydney-based Hyper Capital, will also convert into this round.
