Flexible work arrangement

Our team members have a flexible work relationship with Frei that allows them to work as much or as little as they want. All our team members are well compensated, with a starting hourly rate equivalent to a full-time position in Norway (where we have two physical offices, and where our clients are).

How we work

Projects and recurring designs

• Methodology: We take an agile approach to projects and collaboration, not following any specific framework to the letter. 

• Meeting cadence: Depending on the type and size of our projects and collaborations with clients, we typically have 15-minute stand-ups with the client 1-2 days a week and short daily syncs with the team. The frequency depends on what makes sense for the project at the time.

• Team size: We usually work with 1-2 designers for our creative projects or with the design team at one of our partner agencies.

• Project responsibilities: Most designers on our team work under a project manager or a key account manager. We work on specific design and marketing projects or with recurring deliveries for our clients. 

• Variation: We do our best to make your work life interesting and challenging and to adapt to your preference of sticking with long-term projects vs. joining in on something new.

What you’ll do

• Design digital assets for web, email, and social media
• Create visually compelling content for digital campaigns
• Help refine brand visuals and ensure consistency across platforms
• Contribute ideas and collaborate with marketing and content teams
• Work in close collaboration with the customer key account manager or project manager. 

Who you are

• Strong skills in Canva (required) and Adobe Creative Cloud (a bonus for working on more advanced designs)
• Experience with digital marketing materials and web graphics
• Understanding of social media formats and best practices
• Attention to detail, creativity, and ability to adapt to different styles
• Bonus: Experience with motion graphics or basic video editing

Hiring process

Here are the steps from reading this to working with Frei:

1. Complete this form like a true champion: Prove your communication skills and try not to rely on AI to sound awesome, because you need to be a better human than a machine.

2. Introductory chat: If your work from step 1 looks promising, we will invite you to a 30-minute introductory chat to get to know you.

3. Technical interview: If we find you a solid cultural fit for the team, you move right on to the end boss, our CMO, Ingrid. You'll spend an hour together mainly focusing on a project you're proud of.

4. Trial workday: We'll spend a full workday together on a test project to get a feel of our work dynamic. Of course, this is paid work.

5. Trial month: If we're all happy with the first day of collaboration, we'll go on for a month.

6. Welcome to the team!
