We match kind and clever people with freelance creative jobs
that suit them and companies that appreciate them.
We only work with good creative freelancers.
Good communicators who are good at their craft
with a good work ethic.
And good to be around.
Sound good?
If you are a talented creative director, copywriter, art director,
designer, strategist, client service or producer.
Apply to join our creative collective here.
At Short Term Girlfriend we fit the right human to the right job.
We also understand the frustrations creative freelancers face.
The stress of bad briefs, silly deadlines and being left to make it work.
We don’t do that.
We set freelancers up for success.
We make sure you have enough time to do a proper job.
If you wanted a job in a sausage factory,
you would have one, right?
Plus, we’ll do the negotiating for you. No more,
‘Can you do it cheaper?’
Or awkward overtime conversations. You can get on with what you do best.
Making magic baby.
You’ve got bills!
Our system makes it easy to be paid as a freelancer.
Complete your timesheet. Invoice weekly with your ABN
and we’ll show you the money.
We pay at the end of every week.
No waiting or chasing.
We recruit for advertising agencies, creative agencies, design studios,
marketing + PR agencies and startups with big ideas.
We’re not just careful about the talented freelancers we represent,
we’re fussy about the companies and jobs we connect them to.
To put it as ‘nicely’ as we can, we have a no dickheads policy.
The only heads we are interested in are those that house open minds.
If you’re an expert in creative, relationships
or making stuff happen we’d love to connect.

“If you’re a freelance creative,
STGF is such great news!
You can now be bigger than yourself,
really do those big direct-to-client projects with a bespoke
support team around you.
A team that adds that extra level of “suit” skill set, client
reassurance and experienced, on the job, competency
that those larger projects require.
STGF were such a pleasure to work with, everything was well
planned, seamless and allowed me to focus on the creative
work and nothing else..”
