They are looking for a Head of Brand to take ownership of how the brands look, feel and communicate across every customer touchpoint. This is a highly hands on creative role for someone with exceptional visual judgement who can define a distinctive brand identity and translate it into everything from campaigns and digital experiences to packaging and physical materials.

• Define the creative direction and establish a distinctive visual language across digital and physical touchpoints

What we are looking for

• 6+ years of experience across brand, visual and digital design
• A standout portfolio demonstrating exceptional visual taste and experience building or elevating consumer brands
• Strong understanding of brand identity, typography, composition, colour, imagery and art direction
• A highly hands on designer who is comfortable taking work from an initial brief through to final execution
• Experience creating distinctive creative across multiple channels rather than focusing primarily on product UX
• Strong knowledge of Figma and modern creative tools
• Experience developing brand systems that can be applied consistently across multiple channels, teams or brands
• Strong commercial awareness and an understanding of how creative can influence brand perception, engagement and conversion
• High agency, strong attention to detail and the ability to operate independently
• Comfortable working in a fast moving startup environment where you will need to both think strategically and execute
• Strong communication skills and a low ego approach to collaboration
• Comfortable using modern AI and LLM tools to accelerate creative exploration and production without compromising quality

Nice to have

• Experience working across multiple brands or sub brands
• Experience in health, wellness, consumer, beauty, lifestyle or other trust sensitive sectors
• Experience with premium consumer brands

The opportunity

This is an opportunity to take genuine ownership of the visual identity and creative direction of a growing consumer health business at an important stage of its development.

You will have significant creative autonomy and work closely with an experienced founding team to shape how the brands look, feel and communicate as the business grows.

The role spans strategy and execution. You will have the opportunity to define the creative direction, establish the visual language and personally produce work across the customer journey.

The role also comes equity, giving you meaningful exposure to the long term success of the business.
