About Us
Yucky Ducks LLC is a character-driven collectibles and entertainment brand with an established Web3 community. We're expanding into physical collectibles and building a larger presence on TikTok and Instagram.
We're looking for an experienced talent sourcer or recruiter to help us find an exceptional social media growth specialist to join our team.
What We're Looking For
We need someone who knows how to find creative talent, particularly people who have demonstrated success growing TikTok and Instagram audiences organically.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Actively sourcing candidates through TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and other relevant platforms.
- Identifying people with proven experience in organic social media growth, short-form content, and community building.
- Prioritizing experience with collectibles, toys, entertainment, character-driven brands, or consumer products.
- Reviewing portfolios, content quality, engagement, and demonstrated growth.
- Contacting potential candidates and confirming their interest, availability, and compensation expectations.
- Delivering a shortlist of 5 qualified, interested candidates, including portfolio links and your assessment of each.
Ideal Candidates for Our Team
We're looking for someone creative, proactive, and experienced in growing engaged audiences—not simply scheduling posts.
US-based candidates are preferred, but we're open to exceptional talent worldwide.
Web3 knowledge is a bonus, not a requirement.
Our anticipated budget for the eventual growth specialist is approximately $500 per week for an ongoing part-time freelance engagement.
Important: External Talent Sourcing Required
We are specifically hiring a talent sourcer to identify and recruit individuals outside of Upwork and traditional job boards.
We will be running our own public job postings. Your role is to discover talented individuals who are not necessarily actively seeking employment.
We want you to research TikTok, Instagram, and relevant creator communities to identify people with demonstrated success in organic content creation, audience growth, and community building.
You will be responsible for directly approaching these individuals, introducing the opportunity, evaluating their qualifications, and determining whether they would be interested in joining our team.
Our goal is to discover talent we would not otherwise find through a traditional job advertisement.
We expect a shortlist of five qualified, interested candidates—not simply a list of social media profiles.
Please explain your experience sourcing passive candidates and how you would approach this assignment.
To Apply
Please tell us:
1. Your experience sourcing social media or creative talent.
2. Examples of similar recruiting assignments.
3. How you would approach finding candidates for this position.
4. Your proposed fixed fee and turnaround time.
Important: We're seeking active candidate sourcing and screening, not a generic list of profiles. This is a nonexclusive assignment with no additional placement fee unless separately agreed in writing.
We're ready to begin immediately.
