The Opportunity:

CREATIVE DIRECTOR

(Music & Culture — Cross-Medium)


About the Role


We’re looking for a Creative Director to act as a close creative collaborator and sounding board to a leading singer/songwriter with a strong global footprint.

This is not a traditional “approval” role. This is about taste, instinct, speed, and cultural awareness. You’ll help shape ideas, narratives, visuals, and moments — across music, film, design, live experiences, and digital culture.

You should be a visual/art/graphic designer first and can move fluidly between mediums (Image, video)


Key Responsibilities


Act as a daily/weekly creative sounding board across music, visuals, content, campaigns, live shows, and long-term narrative

Help translate raw ideas into clear creative directions (themes, moods, visual language)

Collaborate with filmmakers, designers, photographers, stylists, writers, and digital teams

Develop and maintain a coherent creative universe across releases, tours, and content

Spot cultural moments, references, and inspirations early — and know what not to do

Give honest, fast, and thoughtful feedback (this role requires taste + backbone)

Help shape creative briefs for videos, artwork, stage design, merch, and content


Ideal Background


Visual Artist / Art/Graphic Designer / filmmaker / Multidisciplinary Creative

Strong exposure to multiple mediums (film, music, fashion, internet culture, art, design)

Young, fast, culturally fluent, and forward-thinking

Has opinions — and can articulate them clearly

Comfortable working closely with an artist without ego or hierarchy issues


You’ll Thrive If You:


Have strong creative instincts and emotional intelligence

Can think conceptually and execute practically

Understand global pop culture as well as indie/art-driven spaces

Prefer collaboration over command-and-control

Are okay with ambiguity and fast pivots
