Branding/Creative Director

The role

You own how Black Forest looks and feels — the brand's visual identity, its design language, the taste level of everything that goes out. You set the standard and you defend it. This is a leadership seat: you run creative, you are not run by it, and you report directly to Jose.

We are looking for a real art-and-brand director — someone with the eye and the reference library of the best fashion and lifestyle brands, who can make a supplement company feel like a design house. Think culture-forward, fashion-literate, obsessive about type, composition, colour and detail. Virgil-Abloh-level taste, translated to a DTC brand that sells every day.

You are also hands-on. You are an expert in Photoshop and the rest of the modern design stack, and you can produce the reference-setting work yourself, not just critique it.

What you will own

• The brand's visual identity . Logo system, type, colour, layout, photography and art direction — the whole look, kept coherent and elevated everywhere it appears.
• Design direction. Set the standard for packaging, PDPs, ads, social, email and everything the customer sees;
  direct designers and creators to hit it.
• The taste bar. Be the final eye. Nothing ships that isn't beautiful and on-brand.
• Hands-on design. Produce the flagship, reference-setting pieces yourself in Photoshop and your design tools of choice.
• Brand evolution. Push the brand forward — moodboards, campaigns, collaborations — so it reads like a top-tier fashion/lifestyle label, not a vitamin store.
• Creative leadership. Raise the level of everyone who touches design, on-site in Miami.

What you bring

• A portfolio that speaks for itself. Top-brand-calibre work — branding, art direction, design — that is genuinely beautiful. This is the whole application.
• Senior brand / creative direction experience. You have owned a brand's look and led others to it.
• Expert craft . Photoshop and the modern design stack at a master level;
  you can build the work,not just brief it.
• Culture and taste. Fluent in fashion, design and what feels current;
  a reference library to match.
• Leadership and autonomy. You set direction and run with it.
• Miami, on-site. This role is in the room with the team.

How to apply

Send your portfolio first — the work is the application. Include the two or three pieces you are proudest of and one line on the brand you built or elevated. Tell us who you would name as your references in design and why.
