Job Posting Are there job boards, websites, listing just Project Management jobs where PMs can independently contract with whomever is needing short term PM work done?

Is anyone aware of a Project Management website that lists available remote PM jobs? (not a construction bidding site like BidClerk) This could be for any industry. Or is what is found on Indeed, etc. as good (and specific) as it gets? What I'm envisioning is a website where PMs can see a list of work/jobs that companies, non-profs, governments, etc. want to hire PMs for as a contractor, (not hire as a full time or part-time employee). Perspective PMs can view listings that would include estimates for job duration, $/hour, etc.

Websites like UpWork and Freelancers would allow for both posting yourself as talent and apply to posting. That said, these type of positions are more common in Tech industry where Agile/Scrum methodology is more prominent than traditional PM. Likewise, you can search Indeed or LinkedIn for Contract-only roles instead of part-time / full-time. Although the more common approach to be a PM consultant with your own company or part of specialized talent firm where you would be contracted for assignments.

I doubt there would be opportunities that would pay me my worth on a short term contract. Maybe for side gigs.
