Administrative Lead Research & Outreach Assistant
We’re a small East London brand studio working with newly-registered UK companies. We need someone to run the top of our outreach funnel: finding the right companies, finding the right person inside them, and preparing outreach that doesn’t read like a template. This is a structured, SOP-driven role — you’ll follow a written process (provided, and thorough) rather than invent one. We’re looking for someone who can work independently from clear instructions and make good judgement calls within them. What you’d do: • Pull newly-registered UK companies from Companies House (daily search, provided criteria) • Find the right contact — LinkedIn, company website, or verified email • Research one genuine, specific detail about each company (60 seconds each) and draft a short personalised opener • Keep a tracker accurate and up to date • Route anything price/scope-related straight to us — you’re never quoting or promising on our behalf What we’re looking for: • Comfortable with structured research — Companies House, LinkedIn, verification tools • Strong attention to detail; accurate entries matter more than fast ones • Clear written English — you’ll be drafting outreach copy, so writing quality matters • Able to follow a detailed SOP independently, without frequent check-ins • UK-based preferred (local knowledge helps with the research) Hours & rate: ~6 hours/week to start, room to grow as the pipeline does. £13–£18/hour depending on experience. Paid weekly, reviewed after the first fortnight. How to apply: tell us about a time you followed a detailed process independently and caught an error or judgement call the instructions hadn’t anticipated. Include your hourly rate. Shortlisted applicants get a short PAID trial (details on request) before anything’s agreed.
7 days ago18 proposalsRemoteAmend date selection on booking form - Gravity form Wordpress
We need a WordPress developer with experience in Gravity Forms. Our booking form contains Date of Birth, Passport Issue Date and Passport Expiry Date fields. The year selector on these date fields only goes back to 2016, meaning customers cannot enter older dates of birth or passport issue dates. We need the date picker configured so that: Date of Birth allows years back to 1926. Passport Issue Date also allows an appropriate historical range. Passport Expiry Date should continue to allow future dates as appropriate. This is a live website, so the fix should be made without affecting the existing form or submissions. Please confirm: Your experience with Gravity Forms. Your estimated time to complete the fix. Your cost. We can provide WordPress administrator access once we've agreed to proceed.

a month ago16 proposalsRemoteMachine Learning Research Proposal Specialist
Overview We are looking for a Machine Learning Research Proposal Specialist to create a polished, professional research-style write-up for an ML evaluation task. The submission should propose a machine learning problem within the writer’s domain of expertise and must be directly related to machine learning. The final deliverable should be written in markdown format, follow the provided template exactly, and be no longer than 1–2 pages with a maximum of 8 paragraphs. Project Goal The goal of this project is to design a machine learning benchmark or problem that is complex enough to challenge a strong state-of-the-art LLM. The problem should not be a simple generic ML pipeline task. It should require deep domain expertise, advanced reasoning, and layered technical understanding that would be difficult for a general-purpose model to solve without specialized knowledge. Responsibilities The selected specialist will write a complete research proposal-style submission using the required sections: Domain and Motivation, Task Design, Data and Data Generation, Sources of Difficulty, Reference Solution and Scoring, and Citations. Each section should be concise, polished, and limited to one paragraph. The proposal should clearly explain the ML domain, why the task is meaningful, what is being predicted, how the data would be generated or adapted, why the task requires extrapolation, and why naive approaches would fail. Ideal Candidate The ideal candidate has strong experience in machine learning, applied AI, data science, or ML research, with expertise in at least one technical or scientific domain such as healthcare, finance, robotics, cybersecurity, biology, materials science, geospatial analysis, NLP, computer vision, or another complex field. They should be able to design a creative ML task that rewards real domain knowledge rather than basic textbook ML skills. Required Skills Strong understanding of machine learning problem formulation, benchmark design, data generation strategies, train/test split methodology, model evaluation, and scoring metrics is required. The candidate should also be comfortable explaining why a task is difficult, what domain-specific insights are needed, and how an expert would approach solving the problem. Clear technical writing and the ability to produce concise markdown-formatted documentation are essential. Deliverable The final deliverable will be a markdown-formatted research proposal following the provided template. It should be professional, concise, and no more than 8 paragraphs total. The proposal must involve machine learning directly and should include citations where applicable, such as relevant research papers, datasets, GitHub repositories, or other credible references that support the proposed task. Important Notes This is a machine learning evaluation project, so proposals that are not directly related to ML will not be accepted. The model output should be ignored during the evaluation process, and once the prompt has been entered and the model generates a response, the evaluator should select “Done Chatting.”

Carousel + TikTok Content for Legal Thriller Biopic
READ BEFORE APPLYING – IMPORTANT Please read this brief fully, especially the “How to apply” section. Applications that do not include all of the items listed under “How to apply” will be automatically rejected without further discussion. I’m looking for a designer/copywriter (or a small duo) to create a research‑driven, sensitive, and engaging social media piece around Prahaar – The Ujjwal Nikam Story, an upcoming biographical legal drama about Indian public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam and the 26/11 Mumbai terror trial of Ajmal Kasab. The focus is not generic film promotion. The carousel + TikTok content should explain, in clear and factual terms: Who Ujjwal Nikam is (career, major cases, public image). Who Ajmal Kasab was and his role in the 26/11 Mumbai attacks. The investigation and trial leading to Kasab’s conviction, and why this case matters. A final contextual tie‑in to the film, without turning it into a poster. TikTok is the priority platform; Instagram is the adaptation. Goals: Educate audiences who may only vaguely know 26/11 / Kasab / Nikam. Build emotional and intellectual stakes around Nikam’s work and the trial. Create content that feels journalistic and credible, not click‑baity or sensational. Be respectful to victims and survivors at all times. Scope of work You will be responsible for: - Researching the subject from credible sources (news, interviews, legal reporting). - Writing all copy: slide headlines, body text, and platform captions. - Designing a TikTok‑first visual narrative (9:16 vertical), then adapting it to an Instagram carousel. Deliverables: - Narrative storyboard for the full piece (slide‑by‑slide / sequence outline). - 1 x TikTok‑first vertical asset (1080×1920) - Either: photo carousel with designed slides. - 1 x Instagram carousel adaptation** (standard feed dimensions, based on the TikTok design). - Captions for TikTok and Instagram, including: - 2 hook options. - 2 closing CTA options (eg. “Save for later”, “Comment your memory of following this case”). Source files (PSD / AI / Figma) + export‑ready images/video. Tone and content requirements: Informative, balanced, victim‑sensitive. Zero glorification of terrorism; focus on law, justice, process, and impact. No made‑up quotes, trial dialogue or “dramatic lines” pretending to be factual. No graphic images of violence; use considered visual metaphors (courtroom, documents, cityscape, etc.). All copy and design must be original and human‑made. Please do not use AI writing tools or AI image generators. What I’m like as a client: I’m a UK‑based Indian film critic and content creator, used to detailed, analytical content. I’ll give you a clear brief, expect you to respect the subject matter, and review your work thoughtfully. I value: - People who read the brief properly. - Strong narrative structure. - Good typography and clean layouts over noisy visuals. How to apply (non‑negotiable): I will only consider applications that include all three of these: 1. Portfolio examples: Share 2–3 links or screenshots of previous Instagram carousels or social explainers you’ve designed. These should be content‑heavy pieces (education, storytelling, explainers) rather than only product promos. 2. Structure idea In 4–5 lines, briefly describe how you would structure this carousel/TikTok piece (eg. Hook → who is Nikam → 26/11 snapshot → who was Kasab → trial process → ethical questions → film tie‑in). 3. Timeline and fee State your estimated timeline for: - Storyboard, - Full TikTok design, - Instagram adaptation. - State your total fee for the above scope (fixed project price). Applications that do not provide portfolio examples, a clear structure idea, and timeline + fee will be rejected immediately. Optional but appreciated If you have any connection to Mumbai, law, or previous experience handling sensitive historical/political topics in your work, feel free to mention it briefly. This is not required, but it helps me understand your perspective. This is a self‑funded project, so my working budget is around £95–£120 for the full scope. However, for the right freelancer with strong, relevant carousel/social explainer work and experience handling sensitive topics, I’m prepared to go up to £150. If you feel the scope requires a slightly higher fee, please mention this clearly in your application or message me directly so we can see if it’s still workable.
