We’re looking for an experienced and visionary VP of Brand and Creative to lead the development and execution of our brand and creative strategy.

8+ years of experience in a creative leadership role—preferably in financial services, real estate, or a similarly regulated industry.
A strong portfolio that reflects brand storytelling, campaign work, and thoughtful design execution.

Excellent communication and presentation skills—comfortable pitching ideas and giving feedback to cross‑functional teams.
