Outlier jobs in the UK

Outlier runs freelance projects that train and evaluate models. Public opportunity pages we read include a general English media-evaluation track, advertised at up to $18 US an hour, open to the UK, and a quantitative finance track advertised at up to $150 US an hour for people with a relevant PhD and professional experience.

The stated application path is: create an account, upload a CV and a valid ID, then start tasks if you are accepted. Pay is described as weekly via ACH, PayPal or AirTM. Outlier is explicit that rates vary, and that some onboarding or overtime stages can be paid less than the advertised ceiling.

Outlier’s official help encourages sharing a personal referral link on social channels and forums, and its community guidelines ban aggressive or inappropriate referral posting. We treat apply buttons as advertising.

Ad Apply buttons on Outlier role pages are referral links. Applying on Outlier directly is fine too.
