Overview

We are seeking a Creative Career Advisor who is passionate about acquiring Creatives and helping them grow through their careers. This is a pivotal role for Designity as we place great value in the value and experience for each member of the Designity Creative Community.

As the Creative Career Advisor, you will be responsible for growing the Designity Creative Community through vetting and onboarding new Creatives, developing training, career growth plans, and overall community engagement. You will partner with the team to ensure our carefully vetted community of high quality Creatives have access and opportunities to do great work for our clients while building their personal portfolios.

Designity is a subscription based virtual creative platform that is disrupting traditional advertising agencies, creative recruitment firms, and traditional in-house creative teams with tech, innovation, and new ways of seamless collaboration.

Designity has a vetted network of US-based creatives led by Creative Directors who collaborate to support mid to large size businesses with their design and marketing needs. Hundreds of brands like Oracle, Audible, Marriott International, Pfizer, Calendly, and Kung Fu Tea have already benefited from Designity’s unique model.

While we still operate like a startup (it can get messy at times) we are in full scale up mode. We’ve been doubling our revenue year after year for the past five years, and 2022 will be our biggest year yet thanks to new blockchain and VR technologies that we are integrating into our model. This means wearing many hats, stepping in where necessary, and taking on the challenge of a startup – but also reaping the benefits!

If this sounds exciting and you’re looking for a challenging position with an opportunity to grow, Designity is the place for you!
