Job leads — 2026-07-02
Filter: designer/PM · remote · part-time/fractional/contract · direct with company (no agencies/staffing) · no motion.
Honest read: moderate/thin day. fractionaljobs.io and Go Fractional were mostly repeats from the last few days (everything strong there is already in the seen log), and web3 boards had nothing in design/PM (all engineering/finance/blockchain). The genuinely NEW, well-matched finds are one true part-time PM at a marketplace, plus several direct-company remote design contracts off the UX Jobs Board (EU-friendly, which suits your timezone). 5 new leads below. Note: the UX-board roles are tagged “Contract” with annual ranges — likely ~full-time-load contracts, not part-time. They pass the “not permanent” filter but verify hours/scope on the listing before committing.
