Recruiters are tough for freelance. Do you know people here? Old partners or people who moved on from your current agency? That more often how it works.

Do creative directors have to manage people?
I don’t like managing people, especially juniors who are still figuring out their career paths. But at my company, in order to be considered a leader, you have to manage people. I see myself as a leader, contributing ideas and strategy… I just don’t want to deal with developing performance goals and compensation. Is this the case everywhere? Can I be a creative leader without managing?

I have the rest of the job down, the creative & client building side. Just a little lost on the deliverables on this ask. This was not something a CD at prev company.
