I’ve seen a setup like this in software for some specific high-demand SAP (ERP) consultancy roles. The nature of SAP migrations are per-project in nature (you wouldn’t want to migrate your company’s ERP all the time). The person had such a skillset that they had what is effectively an “agent” who would negotiate their next job assignment. The agent was even baked into the contract with the client as a party, I don’t recall how much of the hourly this agent would get, but they were invoicing the company separately.

At least this is what I recall.

Meta: this is probably the first time this year where I use the word agent to refer to a human. Feels odd even.
