We have more than 500 team members across multiple offices, primarily in Calabasas CA, San Diego CA, Woodridge IL, Minneapolis, MN and Pleasanton, CA. We also have team members in two company-owned offices in China, as well as in Europe.

We’re launching a creator program across our portfolio of brands and are seeking a freelance independent contractor, or small independent studio, to design and deliver it.

This is a specialized, outcome-based engagement rather than a staff or project-management function. We’re looking for an independent specialist who understands what makes short-form content work on Meta and Tik Tok and can translate that expertise into better creative at scale.

The contractor will deliver creator sourcing, creative direction and performance-based creative analysis. The goal is a repeatable creator engine that can generate hundreds of pieces of content each month and identify the creative worth putting paid media behind.

• Write creator briefs for each brand, covering hooks, angles, talking points and plaNorm specs for Meta and Tik Tok
• Recruit, vet and onboard creators on Trybe and other channels
• Keep creators engaged: fast responses, specific feedback, and celebra

This is an independent contractor engagement, beginning with a short-term pilot and with potential for continued work based on results. The time required will depend on the scope you propose and the volume of content to be delivered. You determine your own hours and availability.

As an independent contractor, you will determine the means, methods, schedule and location of your work, provide your own equipment and software, and remain free to take on other clients. The engagement will be documented in a written independent contractor agreement.
