Creative Director

------------------------------------------- About Corporate Natalie Corporate Natalie is a creator-led media brand that fuses humor, relatability, and sharp business insight to deliver standout digital content. We create original content for a large, highly engaged audience across short-form video, LinkedIn, and long-form formats. Our work sits where entertainment meets the workplace: sketches, series and stories that people send to their coworkers, and brand partnerships that feel like the content they already love. Companies from major tech firms to consumer brands work with us to reach that audience. We're a small team with a big footprint, which means every hire shapes what we become. We move quickly, test ideas, and let the audience tell us what's working. We take the craft seriously and ourselves less so, and we build our culture around finding real fulfillment in the work. The Role Corporate Natalie is looking for a Creative Director to help define who the brand is, where it shows up, and how it continues to evolve. Corporate Natalie is growing from a creator brand into a media network, with new voices, series and products built on the audience Natalie has grown. This person will help lead that shift creatively. This person will be Natalie’s creative partner: someone who can turn big ideas into a clear creative vision, build the systems and team that bring that vision to life, and use audience data to make the work sharper over time.
