Founding Content & Creative Lead
Success Matcher Recruitment
Job Description
Job Description
Our client is a rapidly growing, culturally buzzed-about consumer brand that people are quite literally framing on their walls. They are looking for a Founding Creative Lead with 2 to 5 years of experience to be the creative brain behind everything they make—and talented enough with their own hands to execute it.
You are a socially native creator who can concept, shoot, edit, and design content that stops the scroll. Working directly with the CEO, you will define what thoughtfulness looks like for a generation, turning a wide emotional range—funny, weird, romantic, tender, and a little unhinged—into cultural momentum.
What You'll Do
- End-to-End Creation: Concept, shoot, edit, and design short-form social content end-to-end for TikTok, Reels, and other channels. You move fast and love making a lot of things.
- Creative Direction: Art direct and creatively direct any creators, popups, stunts, or campaigns brought to life by the Growth Lead, ensuring everything looks intentional and distinct.
- Format Invention: Invent repeatable formats and content series that make the brand instantly recognizable and culturally relevant across social media.
- Guard the Vibe: Set and maintain the quality bar for all creative output—ruthlessly killing anything that feels generic, cringe, or over-polished before it ships.
- Strategic Collaboration: Partner closely with the CEO on taste, voice, and brand identity while bringing your own distinct creative ideas to the table.
What You Bring
- 2–5 years of experience creating high-performing content for a modern consumer brand, agency, or as a standalone creator.
- True multi-hyphenate skills: You don't just "manage" creative; you can pick up a camera, edit the video, and design the graphic yourself.
- Social fluency: A deep, native understanding of TikTok and Reels algorithms, trends, and visual subcultures.
- A strong point of view: An exceptional eye for taste and design, with the ability to balance the humorous and unhinged with the tender and romantic.
- Proximity: Ability to work on-site 5 days a week in their New York City office.
