About
the Role We’re looking for a Creative Director to define what Sesame looks, sounds, and feels like in the world. This is a rare opportunity to shape a consumer brand from day one, and create a new category of wearables that people will truly love to wear. You'll be our first creative leader: a player-coach who makes the work and multiplies it. The canvas is unusually wide. One week you're pitching and art directing a launch film; the next you're perfecting assets for the App Store, shaping an experiential activation, or briefing a world-class agency on a collaboration that places Sesame in culture. We believe brands are felt in the small surfaces as much as the big ones, and we're looking for someone who treats a beautiful email with the same obsession as a billboard. You’re the right person for this role if you love to concept, pitch, and create a culture of break-glass ideas - and can actually make things happen, whether that’s through scrappy productions or with industry-leading partners. In this role, you’ll run a mini in-house content studio while directing external agency partners, and your best ideas will travel through paid channels as powerfully as they do organically. You have a distinctive editorial voice, a portfolio with real range, and a passion for building consumer brands. You are excited to partner with Product and Industrial Design to make creative the heart and soul of Sesame.
Responsibilities: Own creative direction across the full funnel: campaigns, editorial content, social, experiential activations, paid amplification, web, and more. Make work yourself — concept, write, and art direct — while raising the bar for everything you don’t personally touch. Build and run a mini in-house content studio: manage an internal creative or freelance team, and establish the workflows and production rhythms to ship consistently at a high bar. Manage external agencies and production partners from concept to final delivery. Develop brand collaborations that build Sesame’s world and earn cultural relevance. Partner with Product and Industrial Design to keep one coherent creative language across our app, our hardware, and every channel in between. Partner with brand and product marketing to develop campaigns and content that delights users and breaks through in culture. Required
