Hire a Creative Assistant

The best founders protect one thing above all: their creative time. Our creative assistants take the busywork off your plate so you can stay in your zone of genius, where the real value gets created. You create. They run the rest.

What Your Hire Will Handle

Keeps Production Moving

Your creative assistant owns the workflow around the work: file and asset management, chasing approvals, scheduling, publishing, and making sure nothing stalls waiting on you. The bottleneck disappears.

One Person Who Learns Your Brand

A dedicated assistant learns your style, your tools, and your standards. Over time they anticipate what you need before you ask, which is the difference between a hire and a helper.

Handles the Coordination You Hate

Vendor and freelancer coordination, content calendars, publishing schedules, and the dozens of small tasks that eat a creator's day. Your assistant takes them off your plate.

Built for Creators and Founders

This is not a generic VA. Our creative assistants understand content workflows, the tools creators actually use, and the pace a personal brand or media company runs at.

Affordable Compared to a US Hire

A dedicated creative assistant through TCA is a flat $1,800 to $3,000 per month all-inclusive. That covers recruitment, vetting, training, onboarding, and ongoing support, at a fraction of a US-based hire.

Full-Time and Dedicated

Your assistant works with you, not five other clients. Full-time focus means they build real context and momentum instead of restarting every week.

Who This Is For

We place creative assistants for creators, agencies, educators, and founders building a content engine.

Content Creators & Personal Brands

You are the product, and the admin around your content is drowning you. A creative assistant runs the workflow so you can stay on camera and on ideas.

Agencies & Studios

Your creatives should be creating, not managing files and chasing approvals. An assistant keeps projects organized and moving so billable work stays billable.

Course Creators & Educators

Launches have a hundred moving parts. Your assistant coordinates assets, schedules, and publishing so nothing slips during the busy weeks.

Founders & Media Companies

A growing content operation needs someone owning the operational layer. A creative assistant is often the highest-leverage first hire on that team.

How we vet every creative assistant before you meet them

A bad hire is expensive. Our job is to make sure the person on your shortlist is already the right one.

  1. 01

    Sourced against your brief

    We start from your workflow and tools, then reach into the hidden job market of already-employed talent, not a public job post.

  2. 02

    Screened for the full story

    Multiple screens built on behavioral frameworks from top headhunting. We verify past clients, real work, and where they want their career to go.

  3. 03

    Tested on real work

    Shortlisted candidates complete a paid task on real assets, so the quality is proven hands-on before you ever meet them.

  4. 04

    Placed with guarantees

    You interview and approve every finalist. Placement is guaranteed in 14 days or less, with a free replacement in the first 30 days if the fit is wrong.
