Creative Director

What you will do at VeSync:

Creative Responsibility

Own creative direction and final approval. Serve as the final creative approver across brands, holding the quality bar for every asset across paid, organic, e-commerce, packaging, and web - including AI-generated content, which is held to the same bar.

Author creative direction and briefs. Translate GTM and campaign strategy into clear, executable creative direction for new product introductions, evergreen content, and brand refreshes: concept, messaging hierarchy, guardrails, shot lists, and references.

Direct commercial production. Lead photo and video production end to end, including storyboards, style guides, production proposals, budgets, and post-production review with specific, actionable feedback.

Run structured creative reviews. Lead feedback sessions for creative assets with cross-functional stakeholders, and drive revisions through to final approval with clear next steps.

Build narrative-led, modular campaign systems. Develop campaign concepts and creative systems that flex across channels, formats, and regions.

Own the AI production stack. Build and govern the tools and workflows that bring generative AI into ideation, production, and localization, and set the guardrails for what ships as AI-generated versus traditionally produced.

Elevate the craft of the team. Guide Art Directors, designers, copywriters, and editors through direction and feedback, raising the standard of storytelling, design, and execution.

Marketing Responsibility

Own creative performance. Define how creative success is measured, integrate performance data (ROAS, CTR, hook rates, conversion) into the creative process, drive the reporting and dashboards that give the team visibility into what's working, and standardize performance-creative capture at every shoot so productions generate testable ad creative, not just brand libraries.

Run pre-launch creative testing. Design and execute testing programs that validate messaging, hooks, and formats - using AI-generated variants to test more concepts, faster - and translate results into launch direction.

Develop creative insights. Turn performance data, audience research, and channel behavior into insights that feed back into briefs, creative direction, and iteration cycles.

Partner with Integrated Marketing. Align with Integrated Marketing on GTM strategy, campaign strategy, and messaging for every launch, confirming creative direction and cross-functional stakeholder requirements before production.

Collaborate across the marketing organization. Work with integrated marketing, social, paid media, agency partners, and e-commerce to ensure creative is purpose-built for the channel and format it will run in, from paid social and PMAX to Amazon and DTC email.

Align global stakeholders. Drive creative consistency and strategic alignment across global teams while respecting distinct regional requirements.

Own the commercial case for creative investment. Treat every asset and campaign as a P&L lever: build the business case for creative spend and AI tooling investment, and report the commercial return of creative work back to marketing and executive leadership.
