About The Position

The Creative Department at Atlantic Music Group operates as a full-service, agency-like team within the label, uniquely dedicated to building and sustaining artist careers at the intersection of art, video, branding, music, digital innovation, and technology. Unlike any other department in the industry, we act as true creative partners to our artists, ensuring every visual and creative touchpoint reflects and amplifies their individual voice. Our work spans every dimension of an artist’s career: music videos, photography, touring visuals, merchandise, digital and social campaigns, advertising, and beyond. We collaborate closely with artists, managers, and marketing teams to shape, narrate, and bring to life the world that defines each artist’s vision: delivering creative assets that not only brand and identify them but also connect deeply with audiences across platforms. At the core of our structure is the Creative Lead. Each artist is paired with a dedicated Lead who serves as their primary partner and point of contact for all things creative. The Creative Lead is responsible for guiding branding, shaping visual strategy, and overseeing the execution of deliverables across every medium. Acting as both strategist and collaborator, they ensure that every campaign and asset is cohesive, intentional, and true to the artist’s vision. As the bridge between the artist and the broader label, Creative Leads streamline the process while providing a highly personalized, artist-first approach. Together, this model allows Atlantic Music Group’s Creative Department to function less like a traditional label division and more like a forward-thinking creative agency. By combining innovation with a deep understanding of artistry, we are able to foster long-term growth, elevate creative expression, and deliver culturally impactful campaigns that extend far beyond music.
