What you'll do

Creative direction and standards

• Define what good looks like across visuals, video, and copy, translating this into clear principles, tone of voice, and storytelling guidelines.

• Maintain a single source of truth for brand and creative guidelines.

System and process development

• Build a scalable operating system for creative production with templates, workflows, service levels, and quality checks suited to high velocity.
• Implement a tiered approach that prioritizes bespoke campaign work while enabling fast, plug-and-play delivery for always-on needs.
• Streamline approvals so routine work is handled within the function and only major campaigns require senior escalation.

Team leadership and capability building

• Coach designers, video editors, and copywriters to strengthen craft, judgment, and speed without compromising quality.
• Run structured critiques, learning sessions, and working rituals that raise the bar and keep momentum.
• Foster a collaborative culture that values shared ownership, clear feedback, and reliable delivery.

Cross-functional collaboration

Requirements

• 7–8 years in agency and or brand environments, leading or serving as a core team member on integrated work across visual design, video, and copy.
• A strong, current portfolio that demonstrates cross-media creative direction and recent digital work; an agency background is required, and experience with award-winning teams or agencies is an advantage.
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, or similar design tools will be an advantage..
• Experience working in companies or agencies that operate with strong brand systems, templates, processes, and review frameworks for high-volume, multi-channel production, and the ability to explain these practices clearly and transfer them to the team.
• Excellent copy leadership and tone development, with the ability to guide clarity, persuasion, brevity, and on-brand expression across banners, CRM or push, social, and video scripts.
• Solid understanding of digital platforms and paid media requirements for Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and CRM, including creative specifications and best practices.
• Experience coaching if not collaborating closely with multidisciplinary creatives and marketing, product, and performance teams to align creative with objectives and timelines.
• Strong communication skills are essential. Leadership or supervisory experience is a plus, though not required.
• An operating style suited to fast-paced environments with shifting priorities; structured, decisive, and hands-on, able to show direction as well as articulate it.
