About The Position

The Creative Associate works directly with founder Jason Carman across his companies Story and Wizard, turning ideas into finished creative work quickly. The role translates early-stage thinking into decks, briefs, and plans; coordinates the people and work needed to execute ideas; and tracks creative deliverables through revisions and completion. It also involves joining meetings, capturing decisions and follow-up actions, and maintaining context across many projects and collaborators. The position calls for strong creative judgment, writing and marketing ability, comfort with ambiguity and multitasking, and fluency with AI tools such as Claude Design and Figma. It is not primarily a video-editing role, though editing experience is a plus.
