About the role

  • Set and safeguard the visual and creative direction for Nood across devices, skincare, and future product lines.
  • Lead end-to-end creative for launches, campaigns, and content in partnership with the CMO and CEO.
  • Work hand-in-hand with the Director of Performance Creative to ensure that what we make is not just beautiful, but also high-performing in feed, in email, on site, and in ads.
  • Act as a creative producer, sourcing and directing external partners (photographers, videographers, stylists, editors, agencies) to execute at a best-in-class level.
  • Eventually, help spearhead creative direction for new brands or concepts developed under the broader Nood umbrella.
  • Own and evolve Nood’s visual identity and design system across digital, physical, and experiential channels.
  • Ensure every touchpoint (website, packaging, campaigns, emails, social, retailer presence) feels unmistakably brand aligned.
  • Partner with the CMO and CEO to turn product strategy into clear creative platforms and launches.
  • Create compelling storytelling frameworks for our core and new products that translate seamlessly across web, social, email, retail, and paid.
  • Act as a creative producer for Nood: scope and brief shoots (photo and video), from casting and styling to locations and shot lists.
  • Lead creative direction for packaging and unboxing, sleeves, kits, and limited-edition executions in collaboration with the CMO and CEO.
  • Own the creative direction of Nood’s digital experience: homepage, PDPs, landing pages, campaign hubs, education content, and merchandising narratives.

Requirements

  • ~6 - 10 years of experience in creative direction, art direction, or brand design, ideally with:
  • High-growth consumer brands in beauty, skincare, fashion, or design-forward CPG.
  • Demonstrated ability to build or significantly elevate a brand.
  • A portfolio that clearly shows:
  • Brand identity systems and visual worlds you’ve defined or led.
  • Campaigns and launches across multiple channels (web, social, email, OOH, retail).
  • Strong photography and film direction (look/feel, casting, styling, composition).
  • Packaging or product-adjacent design work (bonus if in beauty/skincare/devices).
  • Experience sourcing, briefing, and managing external creative partners and production vendors.
  • Proven ability to collaborate with executive leadership and translate strategy into clear creative directions.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to advocate for creative decisions while staying open to feedback and data.
Benefits
  • Base Salary: Up to $160,000 USD (dependent on experience and location).
  • Total compensation may include equity and performance-based incentives depending on experience and scope of ownership.
  • Comprehensive health/vision/dental benefits; PTO; hybrid flexibility.
  • The role is hybrid / remote-friendly, with a strong preference for candidates based in or able to regularly travel to New York City or Austin, TX for shoots, strategy work, and key creative sessions.
