What we’re looking for

We’re looking for a bold, visionary, and obsessively detail-oriented Creative Director to lead Insider’s global marketing design and brand experience. This is a hands-on leadership role for individuals who thrive in fast-paced environments, where brand and business impact are closely intertwined. Reporting to the VP of Brand and Communications, you'll own the creative output of Insider One’s marketing team, from high-impact brand campaigns to our design system, AI usage, and scaling design operations.

You’ll be the keeper of the brand, the shaper of visual identity, and the leader of a growing design ecosystem made up of in-house designers and freelancers, and agency partners. You’ll partner with leaders across Go-To-Market, Demand Gen, Digital, Growth, and Events to bring ideas to life, ensuring everything we create doesn’t just look great, but performs.

• Manage creative budget, resources, timelines, and priorities with ruthless clarity.

• Establish workflows and systems that enable us to move quickly without compromising quality.

• Provide thoughtful, candid feedback that grows people and sharpens the work.

• Champion the brand internally and externally ensuring consistency and clarity across every execution, big or small.

What You Will Need

• A portfolio that demonstrates deep expertise in branding, marketing campaigns, and design systems.

• Meticulous attention to detail, whether reviewing a campaign concept or an event booth mock-up.

• A track record of extreme accountability, owning creative outputs end-to-end, from ideation to execution to post-launch optimization.

• Proven AI adoption across brand systems to scale output while maintaining standards.

• Proven leadership skills with experience managing multi-disciplinary teams, freelancers, and agencies across time zones.

• Comfort working with ambiguity and speed, while bringing clarity and direction to the team.

• Strong creative instincts paired with business acumen; you understand how to use design to solve real business problems.

• Excellent collaboration and communication skills, especially when co-owning projects with other departments and presenting to senior stakeholders.

• Confident managing creative budgets, tooling, and resource planning.
