Who We're Looking For

Freelance with Catalyst

We're not looking to source a new designer every time a project lands on our desk. Instead, we're building something more durable: a trusted roster of designers we return to again and again. When the right project comes in, you're who we call. That means fewer cold starts, more consistency, and a real working relationship with a team that already knows your strengths, just as you'll come to know our clients, our expectations, and how we work.

Check out the areas of expertise we’re looking for and see if your skills align. If they do, complete the application and we’ll reach out.

Let’s build momentum together.
