$9M+ ARR, 10,000+ customers. In under 12 months.We build AI voice agents for small and medium-sized businesses so they never miss a call again and can focus on the work they actually love. Our AI handles every call automatically. But voice is just the beginning. Our vision: to become the fully automated AI suite for SMBs. We live ownership. You're end-to-end responsible for your projects and tasks. No politics, few meetings, direct feedback. At fonio you build alongside the smartest and most ambitious people in the scene. Become part of one of the fastest-growing startups in Europe!

Your role

You own how fonio looks and sounds to the outside world. From our website to paid ads to our visual brand language — you set the standard and have the final say. You lead a small, high-impact creative team (Creative Strategist, Static Ads Designer, UI/UX Designer) and work closely with our Head of Content: she owns owned/organic, you own brand, paid, and web. We're B2B but want to build like a consumer brand — that's where you come in.

What To Expect

• You own fonio's entire visual and creative outward presence: brand, website, paid ads
• You lead and grow a three-person creative team — setting direction and quality without micromanaging
• You give final sign-off on creative output and hold a consistent standard across all channels
• You stay hands-on enough to challenge concepts yourself and lead by example on quality
• You report directly to our Director of Growth

Who We're Looking For

• Several years of experience as a Creative Director, Art Director, or in a comparable leadership role - ideally in a performance/brand environment
• You've demonstrably built or sharpened brands and can show it through work, not just words
• You enjoy leading but see yourself as an enabler, not a controller
• You think brand and performance together - beautiful creative that doesn't convert isn't enough for you
• German at native level + very good English

What We Offer

• Competitive salary: €90,000–€150,000
• Equity - you're building this, so you should own a piece of it.
• Food & drinks - lunch and dinner are on us at the Vienna office (plus all the drinks you want, and yes, we have protein bars and vitamins too).
• Equipment of your choice - whatever makes you happy.
• Regular team offsites.

Hiring process

• 15 min intro call
• 30 min skill interview
• 20 min culture fit with the founders
