Design Director
About The Position
We're pairing craft with AI velocity—and we need a Design Director to lead it. We're launching an embedded, ai-native creative studio for one of the world's most influential B2B tech brands—a global platform company serving 85% of the Fortune 500. This isn't a traditional agency setup. You'll be leading a high-output creative studio that operates as a seamless extension of the client's internal global brand team. Your mission: to scale their vision with relentless craft and speed. That means taking hero campaigns, brand R systems, and creative playbooks—and turning them into flawless assets across regions, channels, and formats. You'll direct a multi-disciplinary team, set the bar for quality, and ensure that every piece of work—whether it's a flagship moment or a localized event—feels unmistakably on-brand. If you're energized by the idea of combining creative excellence with operational rigor, and you thrive when empowering teams to do their best work at scale, we'd love to talk.
