AI-Savvy Creative Generalist — Decks, Design, Research & Marketing

Posted 4 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I run a fast-moving business and regularly kick off projects that need a sharp, versatile creative and research partner. I'm looking for an independent contractor I can bring on project by project — someone who can turn a rough brief into a polished, ready-to-use deliverable without a lot of handholding. This is not a single-skill role. The ideal person is a true generalist who is genuinely strong across four areas: *Deep research — You can dig into a market, a competitor, a topic, or an audience and come back with a clear, well-organized synthesis I can actually use. You know how to separate signal from noise and cite where things come from. *Slide decks & presentations — You build clean, persuasive decks (pitch decks, sales presentations, internal briefs) that look professional and tell a story. Strong sense of layout, flow, and visual hierarchy. *Sales & marketing — You can write and shape marketing and sales material: copy, one-pagers, outreach, landing page content, campaign assets. You understand how to speak to an audience and drive action. *Graphic design — You have a real eye for visual design and can produce branded graphics, layouts, and visual assets that look sharp and cohesive What makes this role different: you work AI-first The biggest requirement: you must be very comfortable working with AI tools and ideally at an expert level. My workflow leans heavily on AI to move fast, and I need someone who does the same. You should be fluent with tools like: Claude — research, writing, analysis, structuring work Gamma — building presentations and decks quickly Perplexity — research and fact-finding …and other AI tools in the creative and research space I'm not looking for someone who is curious about AI — I'm looking for someone who already lives in these tools and can use them to produce high-quality work faster than a traditional freelancer. How we'll work together Project-based / one-off — I'll bring you scoped projects as they come up. Deliver great work and this becomes a repeat relationship. Clear briefs in, polished deliverables out. Reliable communication and turnaround. Comfortable owning a project from research → concept → finished asset.
