Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. We’re Airtasker, the tech company that connects people who need to get things done with those who have the skills to do it.
Our mission is to empower people to realise the full value of their skills. This doesn’t just apply to those who use our product.

Because we believe work (and life) is always better when you truly know and appreciate your strengths and skills.
AirSupport's purpose is to provide a world-class customer experience, maximise the lifetime value of our users, and protect the Airtasker brand. A subset of AirSupport is the Trust and Safety Team, who are responsible for resolving the most high risk escalated issues related to trust, safety, and legitimacy.
