Creative Director
ABOUT THE COMPANY
Our client is one of the fastest-growing startups in the world, building AI-powered productivity tools used by teams across the globe. Our team includes engineers and operators from top-tier tech companies and leading European startups. We're scaling fast with real product-market fit and serious ambitions.
ABOUT THE ROLE We're looking for a Creative Director to join the Growth team and own the creative thinking behind everything we put out — ads, organic content, landing pages, and beyond. This is not a production role. You will not be editing timelines or color-grading footage. Your job is to think, research, brief, and script — then make sure the people executing (internal team and external partners) deliver work that is sharp, differentiated, and performs.
This role demands:
High IQ — complex strategic thinking, pattern recognition, connecting dots others miss
Excellent creative taste — you set the bar, not follow it
High agency — you move fast and do not wait to be told what to do
Huge ambitions — you want to build something people remember
WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON
Briefing content Write detailed, opinionated creative briefs for every asset — paid ads, organic videos, landing pages, case studies. Define the concept, angle, hook, structure, visual direction, and success criteria before anything goes into production. Ensure every brief starts from a clear hypothesis about what it needs to prove and who it needs to move.
Managing external partners Own the relationship with external creative agencies, freelance editors, motion designers, and content producers. Run the feedback loop — review output, give precise notes, hold the quality bar. Build a system where external partners can deliver consistently without needing to be micromanaged.
Research Maintain a deep, constantly updated understanding of the competitive landscape, adjacent tools, and creative trends across B2B, SaaS, and AI. Study what the best companies and creators are doing — not to copy, but to understand the underlying patterns. Turn research into actionable creative inputs: hooks, angles, formats, references, positioning insights.
Scripting Write scripts for video ads, product demos, organic content, and sales enablement. Strong instinct for pacing, hooks, clarity, and emotional structure. Every script should have a clear reason to exist — not filler, not "content for content's sake."
WHAT WE LOOK FOR
Exceptional creative taste You can articulate exactly why something works or doesn't. You set the bar — you don't follow it.
Systems thinker You think in systems — not just single assets, but how concepts connect, iterate, and compound.
Sharp writer Briefs, scripts, feedback, and strategy docs are all clear and opinionated. You write well across formats.
Creative partner management You've managed creative agencies or freelancers and know how to get great work out of people without micromanaging.
Performance marketing fluency You understand performance marketing well enough to connect creative decisions to business outcomes — especially in paid social.
High agency You don't wait for permission or instructions. You move fast, make decisions, and take ownership.
WHAT GOOD LOOKS LIKE
Creative output has a clear point of view — it doesn't look or sound like every other SaaS company
External partners ship work on time and on brief without constant back-and-forth
Ad performance improves because the ideas are sharper — not because we're spending more
There's always a backlog of strong, well-reasoned concepts ready to go
People inside and outside the company say "the creative is really good" — and start copying your ads
NICE TO HAVES Experience at a high-growth startup, performance agency, or creative studio focused on tech. Background in copywriting, brand strategy, or creative direction. Familiarity with paid social creative best practices. Experience building creative systems or testing frameworks from scratch.
THE TEAM You'll work directly with the Co-Founder on creative strategy — not buried under layers of management. High autonomy, high standards, and real ownership from day one.
