Creative Director - San Francisco, United States - Vintner's Daughter LLC
Description
Below covers everything you need to know about what this opportunity entails, as well as what is expected from applicants.
Creative Director (San Francisco Based)
NOT BEAUTY AS USUAL
Vintner's Daughter is not beauty as usual. This beloved brand has spent over a decade upending norms in the world of skincare, setting new standards for performance and inspiring a community of passionate followers.
Drawing from her foundations in fine winemaking in Napa Valley, our founder April Gargiulo applies a novel perspective to the entire skincare formulation process. We move at the speed of quality, proudly releasing only three products over the course of eleven years. Each whole-plant formula is meticulously developed over a span of three to five weeks in a process 66 times longer than the industry standard. At every turn, we choose the highest quality, most effective option–regardless of cost or complexity.
Our company exists to have a profoundly positive impact on our community's skin, their lives and our shared world. We take a stand against words like "correct," "fix," "transform" or "anti-aging" and instead nurture joy, confidence and gratitude in our beautiful skin. As a certified B-Corp, we have chosen to be carbon neutral and prioritize sustainability. From our very first sale, we have donated 2% of all revenue to charities supporting women and children.
OVERVIEW OF THE POSITION
The Creative Director will lead all Creative strategy, process, planning and execution for Vintner's Daughter, supplying our team with inspiration and new ideas. This individual will act as a thought partner to our founder and CMO as we chart this next chapter of the brand, translating our vision into a compelling visual world and creating thorough brand guidelines. They will act as both a coach for the Creative team and a player themselves, managing junior designers while owning multiple ongoing projects outright. Projects will include everything from email, social, packaging and advertising to bigger physical activations, event design and execution. The Creative Director will concept, own and execute all photo/video shoots and content creation. They will play a pivotal role in planning our content strategy across all channels, inclusive of both the DTC world as well as our retail environments. They must have a strategic and creative brain, helping to build out plans for partnerships, collaborations and other ways to show up to new customers. Finally, they will manage the Creative team's resourcing, workload, project flow and deliverables, helping drive efficiencies within this process.
