Fortune Media is seeking an exceptional Executive Creativ e D irec tor to lead the brand's creativ e vision across its full portfolio — spanning digital, print, events, video, and brand partnerships. This is a senior leadership role for a practitioner who is as comfortable setting brand strategy as they are hands-on in execution, with a clear and confident point of view on where design, storytelling, and AI-augmented creativ ity are heading.The Executive Creativ e D irec tor will serve as the creativ e standard-bearer for Fortune, owning global brand consistency and elevating the quality bar across every audience touchpoint.

In the interim, the Executive Creative Director will report directly to Fortune's Executive Committee. Upon the arrival of the incoming CMO, the reporting line will transition accordingly.You will:Own and evolve Fortune's global brand identity, visual system, and style guides across all platforms and markets — including Fortune.com, the magazine, newsletters, social, and international editions.Direct both traditional design (print, magazine, OOH, event materials) and digital design (web, social, email, digital products) to ensure a unified, contemporary aesthetic that translates consistently across every channel.Lead creativ e d irec tion for Fortune's major tentpole events — including the Fortune 500 Forum, Most Powerful Women Summit, and CEO Initiative — overseeing all event design deliverables from stage and signage to branded environments.Provide creativ e oversight for the video and photography department, ensuring all visual production aligns with Fortune's brand standards; maintain a deep roster of photographers, directors, stylists, and collaborators whose work is right for Fortune.Act as the senior creativ e partner to Fortune's Brand Studio, ensuring sponsored programs and advertiser campaigns meet the same creativ e standard as editorial while serving commercial objectives and protecting the Fortune brand.Work closely with Fortune's web product, paywall, and subscription teams to ensure the digital brand experience — from Fortune.com to subscriber acquisition and retention campaigns — is consistent, premium, and conversion-aware.Serve as creativ e lead and strategic partner to both B2B and B2C marketing teams, providing direction for campaigns across paid, owned, and earned channels while helping both teams build repeatable creativ e frameworks and templated assets.Own the centralized freelance creativ e roster — vetting, onboarding, and managing designers, illustrators, photographers, and copywriters — and manage creativ e budgets with rigor and transparency.Own the evaluation and governance of Fortune's core creativ e tooling stack, including the Digital Asset Management (DAM) system, design platforms, and project management tools, and lead rollout of unified workflows across the organization.Lead Fortune's creativ e organization through the AI inflection point: actively integrate AI-first tools into creativ e workflows, establish clear ethical standards for AI-generated and AI-assisted output, and build AI literacy across the creativ e team.Uphold Fortune's editorial and ethical standards across all creativ e output, serving as the final internal authority on whether creativ e work meets Fortune's brand standards before publication or production.The right candidate:Has 10+ years of progressive creativ e leadership experience, with at least 4 years directing a multidisciplinary creativ e team at a media company, publisher, or content-led brand.Brings a portfolio demonstrating mastery across both traditional and digital design disciplines, with strong editorial sensibility and platform-agnostic visual fluency.Has proven experience overseeing creativ e production for large-scale live events or brand experiences, and deep fluency in building or stewarding visual identity systems at scale across multiple platforms and markets.Has active, demonstrable use of AI-first creativ e tools in professional practice — this is a hiring requirement, not a differentiator.Brings strong executive presence: the ability to present creativ e vision confidently to senior stakeholders, advertising clients, and editorial leadership.Has experience managing freelance creativ e talent and leading creativ e budgets with transparency and discipline.Has deep industry contacts across photography, direction, illustration, and creativ e production.Ideally brings experience leading creativ e within a recognized media brand with a print heritage and a digital transformation mandate, and familiarity with revenue-generating creativ e contexts including branded content and advertiser co-creation.What Success Looks LikeIn your first 90 days :Conducted a full audit of Fortune’s current creativ e output, team capabilities, tooling stack, and brand standard adherenceBuilt trusted relationships across editorial, marketing, events, Brand Studio, and the Brand Partnership GroupDeveloped an initial point of view on the highest-leverage creativ e priorities and shared it with interim leadership and the incoming CMOWithin six months:Established or refreshed Fortune’s global style guide and design governance modelCentralized the freelance roster with clear processes and measurable quality improvementsMade a clear DAM tooling recommendation with a phased rollout planIntroduced at least one AI-augmented workflow that demonstrably improves the team’s output or velocityEstablished a clear, productive working relationship with the Brand Partnership GroupAt one year:Fortune’s creativ e output is consistently elevated and recognizable across all platforms, with measurably higher satisfaction scores from internal stakeholdersThe creativ e team operates with greater speed, lower freelance cost per project, and reduced re-workThe Brand Studio pipeline has a strong creativ e lead relationship contributing to revenue growthFortune is regarded externally as a creativ e leader in the media industry — winning awards, attracting talent, and setting standardsLocation: This role will be based in NYC in our headquarters, with hybrid flexibility.Salary Range: $200,000-$225,000 base + eligibility for a variable annual bonus.
