Sobre esta vaga de Creative Director (Fully Remote) na Padsplit
The Role We Need
PadSplit is entering a stage where creative is becoming a strategic growth lever, not just a production function. We're looking for a Creative Director to elevate our brand, lead our creative team, and build a creative operation that drives trust, acquisition, and measurable business results while helping tell one of the most important missions in housing today. You'll have the opportunity to influence everything from national marketing campaigns and social content to the way members, hosts, and partners experience the PadSplit brand every day.

This is a true player-coach role for someone who loves developing people, embraces AI and modern creative tools, and can balance exceptional brand storytelling with performance marketing that delivers measurable results. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable presenting creative strategy to executives, coaching designers through feedback, and rolling up their sleeves to help solve a creative challenge when needed.
