Job description

At Sonos we want to create the ultimate listening experience for our customers and know that it starts by listening to each other. As part of the Sonos team, you’ll collaborate with people of all styles, skill sets, and backgrounds to realize our vision while fostering a community where everyone feels included and empowered to do the best work of their lives.

The Global Brand Creative team is the creative nucleus for the GTM team. We define the brand vision; how the brand should look, sound, and feel. We build tools for other teams to bring this vision to life. We engage deeply with those teams to ensure that the tools are useful and being used.

In this role, you will collaborate closely with creative directors, art directors, copywriters, and other designers to develop, conceptualize and be responsible for producing creative guidelines, toolkits, and assets that support brand storytelling moments. You will also work with other cross-functional partners, external partners and agencies. You are comfortable with creative direction that is reliant on visuals and copy to express an idea. You have a passion for brand systems and exhibit the ability to apply the visual identity across a variety of creative communications. You apply your design foundation to art direction and visual storytelling when needed. You create connections with other teams at Sonos to guarantee consistency and quality in our channels.

This role can be done from home

Building the world’s leading sound experience starts with the experience we provide for our people. That’s why we’ve been distributed from the start: initially between offices in Boston & Santa Barbara. This role can be done from anywhere in the United States—any of our offices, or remotely from home. It’s about impact, not location. Additionally, this job may require some travel. A willingness to be onsite at PR events, tradeshows, productions, etc. to see work through is valued.
