Creative Talent Pool

Job description

ABOUT THE GENERALIST COMPANY We're making it radically easier for founders to find the talent they actually need, and for operators to do their most impactful and meaningful work. We exist because founders waste time, effort and money on mis-scoped roles, mismatched skill sets, and slow recruiting - while brilliant generalists and operators struggle to find work that values their range and impact. We fix that. We connect high-context talent with high-growth opportunities: freelance, fractional, contract, or full-time. Whether it’s a launch, a turnaround, or a first hire, we bring in the right people at the right moment. It’s faster, sharper, and built on trust. AT A GLANCE - Location: Remote (global opportunities) - Compensation: You set your rate - freelance/contract, fractional, or full-time - Contract Type: Flexible - project-based, deployments, part-time, full-time - Start Date: Ongoing - join the pool, we’ll match you when the fit is right ABOUT OUR OPPORTUNITIES Design and storytelling aren’t just support functions anymore - they are the product, the brand, and the experience. We work with startups and scaleups that need to look, feel, and sound as bold as the things they’re building. Whether you're leading a brand refresh, shaping a creative campaign, producing a product video, or building a design system from scratch - your work brings ideas to life. These are opportunities for creatives who can work with ambiguity, design with intent, and help early teams punch well above their weight. THE KINDS OF DISCIPLINES AND ROLES WE MATCH FOR You don’t need to fit neatly into a box - but here's an idea of what we're talking about: - Design → Graphic Designer, Brand Designer, Creative Director - Content → Copywriter, Content Creator, Social Content Manager - Media → Animator, Video Producer, Motion Designer - Project Management → Creative Director, Digital Project Manager You might go deep on one discipline or span multiple. That’s the beauty of this pool. WHO YOU ARE You don’t just make things beautiful - you make them make sense. You get startups, move fast, and know when to fight for the idea. Some traits we often see in great-fit creatives: - You’re story-driven - you know how to move people with visuals and voice - You’re collaborative - you play well with product, growth, and brand - You’re tasteful - you bring a high bar and sharp eye - You’re iterative - you know great creative is often built in layers - You’re entrepreneurial - you thrive with a blank canvas and a fast pace - You’re clear-thinking - you simplify complexity through design and content THIS MIGHT NOT BE FOR YOU IF… - You prefer corporate brand guidelines over blank canvases - You want to focus only on one medium instead of flexing across formats - You need long timelines and big budgets to create - Ambiguity or open briefs frustrate you - Fast feedback or iteration feels like rework instead of craft - You resist collaborating with product, growth, or founders - You struggle to balance creativity with delivery and deadlines WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT Joining means you're on our radar for exciting roles that match your zone of expertise. Here’s how it works: - Step 1: You’ll apply - Step 2: You’ll connect with us — we’ll explore your experience, craft, and fit - Step 3: When a client brief fits your craft and expertise, we’ll get in touch and introduce you to the client and you can explore the opportunity with them directly - Step 4: If it's a fit, we'll onboard you and continue to support throughout You won’t hear from us every week.
