About: Contact’s the place where creatives manage their career and get paid. We handle all the admin and boring bits so that you can focus on the important thing – your craft. Our philosophy's simple: we think the creative industry should put creative talent first. That's why we give power to creatives – creating a safe, honest, reliable space for them to work.

Clients like Balenciaga, Burberry, Depop, Farfetch, i-D, Nike, Vivienne Westwood and Vogue trust Contact to find the world’s most diverse creative talent. Currently, we offer models and photographers – with stylists, makeup artists and videographers coming soon. Since starting in 2019, over 500 diverse creatives have joined Contact. We help them showcase their talent and tell their story. Together, we're building a powerful community of creatives.

Your primary focus will be managing talent and jobs on the platform.

  • Utilize problem-solving and creative thinking skills to resolve talent-related issues.
  • Facilitate conflict resolution with talent when necessary.
  • Handle administrative tasks related to communication and organization on a daily basis.

Qualifications:

  • Trustworthy and reliable to consistently deliver exceptional talent relationship experiences.
  • Confidence in dealing with novel situations, conflict resolution, and building trust-based relationships with our creative roster.
  • Ability to think strategically about talent attentiveness, proactively developing scalable solutions to ensure a top-class talent experience.
  • Highly organized with excellent communication skills, comfortable with different forms of communication and adaptable to unexpected situations.
  • Passionate about maintaining high levels of communication with clients and talent.
  • Confident with strong interpersonal skills, capable of representing Contact effectively in front-facing interactions with creatives.
  • Keen attention to detail, ensuring talent profiles align with our company vision and standards.
  • Independent problem-solving skills, demonstrating initiative in resolving various challenges.
  • Natural problem solver, confident in decision-making to address talent-related situations.

Ideal Candidate:

  • Experience working with various types of talent, such as photographers, HMUAs, stylists, etc, will be a bonus.
  • Background in a similar role or relevant field.

We are looking for individuals that are:
