Creative talent on demand.

The Roster offers a more deliberate, more enlightened approach to creative staffing. Beyond mastery of a specialized craft, anyone who qualifies for a place on The Roster has also demonstrated that they’re smart, steady and reliable. Nobody makes it onto our list before working closely with at least one other member of the team. Personal connections are essential.

Expertise

Specialties We Cover

Content and Copywriters

Do you already have a pretty good idea of what it is you want to say to potential customers? Fantastic. But getting those thoughts across in ways that make them interesting and relatable? That really is a skill set all its own. We can hook you up.

Art Directors and Designers

Hiring a heavy-hitting Art Director or Designer (yes, they are two different things) can make all the difference. From logos and packaging to ad campaigns and websites, we’ll connect you with the right person for any job. It pays to get it right the first time.

UX/UI Designers

Every one of your customers, past, present or future, lives in a digital world. They instinctively know when a brand provides easy, intuitive onscreen experiences. And it’s painfully obvious when an app or website falls short. These are essential roles.

Project and Product Managers

In a world of specialized creative talents, the ability to keep a project rolling forward smoothly is a superpower all its own. Somebody needs to stay on top of schedules, budgets and communication. We have those somebodies, and now you can too.
