Creative Lead Job at Femtech Insider Ltd. in New York

Creative Lead

Gaia’s mission is to ensure that everyone who wants a family has the chance to try. We're looking for a Creative Lead to scale our creative function: ensuring a consistent, clear visual identity and messaging, and developing category-defining creative while personally owning high-quality output across brand and performance from day one.
This isn't a role where a studio already exists and you inherit it. You're energized by the work yourself: ideating, designing, and directing the work that translates a complex, emotional experience into something delightful for Gaia’s members and anyone considering starting a family.
You'll enjoy this role if you…

Are personally motivated by the idea that design can make healthcare more human, and make a what is one of the most consequential and emotional financial decisions for intended parents feel clear and trustworthy

Are autonomous, urgent, and hands-on. You want to build a category-defining creative function, not just manage on top of an existing system.

Understand where brand meets business impact. You make bold creative calls, but you can explain why they'll move a metric like CPL or conversion

Get excited about AI-native creative workflows and what a small, modern creative operation can produce without a big headcount

Hold every output to the same high bar, from a social campaign to a piece of collateral to an paid integrated out-of-home campaign

Can turn complicated concepts (credit approval, plan terms, treatment pathways) into something visually simple that makes people say "Oh, now I get it…and I want to sign up."

What you'll do

Brand & visual identity

Own Gaia's creative craft end to end: steward and evolve our visual identity and brand guidelines, and establish a design system that scales across brand, product, and partner-facing work

Develop visual brand strategy that ties directly to business goals, and proactively bring solutions rather than waiting to be briefed

Maintain brand consistency across every project and every team producing creative work

Marketing & performance creative

Conceptualize and design high-converting marketing material across channels: web, paid, social, email, landing pages, print, video, experiential activations, and more

Translate complex, regulated concepts (fixed-cost plans, credit approval, treatment coverage) into branded experiences that are clear and compliant, for both patients and our clinic and employer partners

Stand up AI-powered creative workflows (image generation, rapid asset iteration) so a lean team can produce at the pace of a much bigger one

Stakeholders & operations

Partner closely with Growth, Partnerships, and Leadership to make sure creative work is tied to acquisition, brand trust, and revenue

Present creative concepts clearly and persuasively to teams across the organization, and incorporate feedback without losing a clear point of view

Own project timelines and deadlines, flag blockers early, and keep multiple projects moving at once

As the team grows, hire, guide, and mentor designers, running critiques that raise the bar

Minimum qualifications
Experience:

8+ years of visual design experience, with a strong focus on brand and performance marketing (early- or growth-stage company experience strongly preferred)

Portfolio:

A strong portfolio spanning brand identity, websites, campaigns, and performance marketing creative

Tools:

Proficiency in Figma and the Adobe Creative Suite

Understanding:

Solid grasp of brand identity systems, digital marketing principles, website design best practices, and performance marketing metrics

Communication:

Excellent communication and presentation skills; you can explain a creative decision to a founder and to a growth marketer in their own language

Adaptability:

Comfort in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment, managing multiple projects and shifting priorities without losing craft

AI fluency:

A genuinely AI-native approach to design and asset production, not just familiarity with the tools

Mindset:

An owner's mentality, a strong bias to action, and real humility

Preferred qualifications
Experience in a growth-stage startup environment

Experience designing for consumer brands - bonus points if it’s for a new category

Direct experience building and scaling a creative function or brand system

Location :
