Talent Specialist (15-month Contract) at Metalab

This role is designed for a recruitement professional with at least three years of experience, ideally within a creative agency, who has navigated the nuances of hiring freelancers in design and engineering. You should be comfortable not only sourcing talent but also managing the operations, contracts, and vendor relationships that keep a flexible workforce running. **What makes it worth a look...** This is a fully remote 15-month contract that offers a deep look into the operations of a world-class design agency. It is a rare chance to move beyond standard recruiting and actually build a community of freelance partners and manage an internship program from the ground up. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have a background in agency-side recruitment specifically for Design or Product roles. * Are comfortable negotiating freelance rates and managing vendor master service agreements. * Can evaluate design portfolios to identify top-tier creative talent. * Enjoy building processes for onboarding and performance tracking rather than just following a manual.
