Actor (Social Media, Tech)

Job Position(s): Actor (Social Media, Tech)

Free Agency is on a mission to empower people to reach the highest levels of their career potential. We work with talent to break the information and process asymmetries holding them back from doing more, making more, and being more. We’ve raised over $15M from world-class investors like Maveron, Resolute Ventures, Bloomberg Beta, Kevin Durant and Rich Kleiman’s Thirty Five Ventures, Palm Tree Crew, and more.

Free Agency brings Hollywood-style career management to knowledge workers, starting with the tech industry. We provide concierge services and digital products to help people find incredible jobs, make more money, and become high-performing leaders. Unlike solutions in recruiting, we’re entirely paid by the talent we work with, which enables us to provide them with dedicated Talent Agents to manage “the business end” of their career. Talent success becomes our success.

To date, we’ve helped hundreds of professionals negotiate over $340 million in offers, and work with talent building the cutting-edge future in the startup and tech industry.

About the job:

We are seeking actors and on-screen talent in NYC to be long-term personas for social media accounts. You’ll read scripts (anywhere from 30 seconds to 3 minutes) for (mostly) short form videos.

Content will be related to the tech & startup industry, including topics in career, job search, and AI, so you should be comfortable with complicated topics and understanding the content of your scripts. These will mostly be recorded on phones, though we have professional A/V equipment and will still be taking extra steps when it comes to audio and lighting.

Requirements:

• Frequent availability to shoot in-person in NYC, starting as soon as possible
• Must have experience setting up your own shoots (lighting, prosumer mics, etc.)
• Must have a professional demeanor, dress business casual
• Non-union

Compensation:

$20-$25 per hour.

Please ensure your application materials include a headshot and reel.

Why Free Agency matters:

Job search and career progression are broken. Candidates haphazardly apply to jobs, meet only a few companies, settle during offer negotiation, and generally don’t optimize the process of moving along in their careers. As a result, Free Agency believes that everyone is undercompensated.

That doesn’t just have to do with the money we make, but also the teams we’re a part of, the type of work we get to do, and the alignment to mission along the way. All of this has an impact on our own satisfaction, health, and financial wellness, but we don’t give it the attention it deserves.

By aligning incentives with individual talent, Free Agency is enabled to build first-of-their-kind products & services and define a new category of career management.
