Creative Director
Own Posh's visual and creative identity end-to-end, defining brand systems across marketing, product, and events while personally creating hero campaigns and managing external partners.
About the job
What You'll Own & Achieve
- Define what Posh looks like in 2027. Evolve our visual identity, design language, and creative principles for the next chapter of the brand — and codify them clearly enough that every team and outside partner can build to the same bar.
- Create the work yourself when it matters. Roughly half of what ships should come from your own hands — the hero campaigns, social assets, merch drops, and company moments that need a singular point of view.
- Build the agency and contractor stack that scales the other half. Source, brief, and manage the freelancers, studios, photographers, and motion artists who let Posh punch above its in-house weight.
- Make the brand undeniably cohesive across every surface. Stand up the systems, templates, and review rituals that ensure brand, product marketing, performance creative, sales decks, community assets, and in-product moments all feel like one company.
- Set the creative bar for product marketing and performance. Partner with Growth and Product Marketing to make Posh's paid, lifecycle, and product launch creative as cohesive and engaging as possible.
- Be the brand's loudest internal advocate. Push back when work doesn't meet the bar, regardless of who shipped it. Run critiques, mentor non-designers on taste, and make creative excellence a company-wide standard.
- Stay ahead of culture, not behind it. Live inside the music, nightlife, fashion, and creator worlds that Posh exists at the intersection of.
- Leverage AI as a creative force-multiplier. Bring image, video, and ideation tooling into your daily workflow.
Requirements
- 7+ years in design, art direction, or creative roles, with at least 2+ years operating at Creative Director or equivalent scope — owning a brand end-to-end across both brand and performance surfaces.
- Portfolio that speaks for itself: campaign work, brand systems, merch, motion, social content, partnerships.
- Equally fluent in making and directing. You can sit in Figma or After Effects and ship the work yourself, and you can brief an agency or a freelance motion artist and get back something that meets your bar.
- A real point of view on the music, nightlife, events, and IRL culture worlds.
- Mastery of Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, and modern motion tools. Generative AI (image, video, and ideation) is a daily part of your workflow.
- Sharp written and verbal communication.
- A bias toward urgency and high output.
- High EQ.
Nice to Have
- Past experience as the in-house creative leader at a consumer brand at Series B–D scale that punched well above its size on brand (Liquid Death, Poppi, Olipop, Partiful, Cash App, Ramp, On, Aimé Leon Dore, or similar).
- Hands-on experience with motion design, photo direction, or film production.
- A side practice — personal art, a label, a zine, a collective, a substack.
- Direct experience working with musicians, artists, venues, or labels on creative partnerships.
- A deep personal connection to IRL events, nightlife, or the kinds of communities Posh exists to serve.
