Creative Director | LOOKFANTASTIC

As Creative Director, you will be part of the senior team building the LOOKFANTASTIC brand, responsible for defining and delivering the visual language for LOOKFANTASTIC across all touchpoints.

In this newly created role, the Creative Director will act as brand guardian, building a world-class creative department and striving for excellence in everything we do.

Ideally, we are looking for a multi-disciplinary creative with exceptional design skills and an eye for the smallest detail, leaving no type out of place. You will be excited about creativity and the power of ideas, and able to unlock this in others.

You'll be joining a fast-paced and dynamic Company, working across a variety of projects that help to both strategically position the brand, and drive our commercial ambitions. You'll be just as excited about reviewing the design of our email sequences as you are creating a billboard.
