Remote
Deputy is a global SaaS remote-first workforce management company with hubs in Sydney, Melbourne, San Francisco and London, plus team members working remotely across the United States. Our platform serves over 1.5 million workers and 375,000 workplaces across 100+ countries. We are backed by top global investors and recently achieved Unicorn status.
At Deputy, we’re improving the world of work, one shift at a time, for 80% of the world’s workforce: hourly workers. These are the dedicated employees who keep our world running – from baristas to nurses, cleaners to delivery drivers, florists to factory workers. Despite their vital role in society, most workplace technology has focused on those workers who sit behind a desk, but at Deputy, we transform the frontline. When businesses use Deputy, their workplaces thrive – the business is more profitable, compliant, and productive, while the workers are more engaged and happier at work.
If you’re passionate about creating solutions that put people first and helping businesses and their teams thrive, join us at Deputy and make an impact where it matters most!
The Role
We’re looking for a Creative Director to build and scale the creative heartbeat of Deputy from the ground up.
In this role, you’ll unify brand, design, content, and storytelling into one high-performing function that fuels demand across every channel and campaign. You’ll ensure that every ad, landing page, sales deck, event, social post, and product launch connects emotionally, stands out visually, and ladders up to business impact.
You will be the creative engine behind brand decisions and it will be your job to make sure Deputy looks, sounds, and feels world-class, while helping drive SQLs, pipeline, and revenue. You will shape the entire creative strategy for a tech unicorn. While it will be your job to help the company maintain brand clarity, this is not just a brand role; it’s a creative growth role.
Why This Role Matters
In the new Deputy marketing structure, the Creative Director is the heart of everything we will publicly do for Deputy. Both as a brand that becomes beloved by customers and also creating demand for others to know about us. By ensuring that every creative asset connects emotionally and converts effectively, this role multiplies the impact of campaigns, channels, and programs.
If you’re ready to shape the future of work with a brand that matters, while proving that great creative teams drive growth, we’d love to meet you.
