The Role

We're hiring a Creative Director define how Moment shows up in the world.

We don't do traditional marketing. Our business is relationship-driven, and our growth depends on deepening trust with the leading financial institutions of the world, and on attracting elite talent. Our brand is the most powerful lever that serves both.

As Moment’s Creative Director, and the first Creative Director in this space, you will architect our cultural relevance, brand awareness, and a design-forward identity that commands attention in every room and on every screen. Moment will be a generational company, and you will help cement that legacy.

You’ll lead the creative vision and execution for everything that shapes who we are - from our website to campaigns to events to experiential moments. You’ll work closely with leadership and design to craft a brand that is as ambitious and distinctive as the company itself. You will have a specific focus on web and online presence, owning everything from the development and evolution of our website, to how we run digital campaigns.

This is a highly autonomous, highly collaborative role for a strategist-maker. You are equally comfortable defining systems and shipping work. You can navigate different levels of abstractions of a brand and clearly articulate, lead, and execute creative projects spanning strategy, design, motion, and physical experiences.

What you’ll do…

Lead Creative Vision & Brand Evolution

  • Define and evolve Moment's brand identity, visual language, and creative direction across all touch points - online, physical, and experiential, focusing on web

  • Bring cohesion and craft to how we speak to two audiences: sophisticated clients and top-tier talent through branding, storytelling, and visual systems

  • Push our visual identity into new, refreshing, and distinctive directions that set us apart in a traditional space while maintaining trust and authority

Lead Web & Digital Experiences

  • Own the evolution of Moment.com: narrative, IA, conversion, and design quality

  • Build microsites and digital experiences for launches, events, and key moments

Drive Campaigns & Cultural Relevance

  • Concept and own the creative development of integrated campaigns across brand, product launches, social, and events

  • Create work that earns attention and builds cultural relevance in both finance and tech

Build & Scale the Creative Function

  • Establish clear creative processes, briefs, and workflows that drive efficiency and quality execution

  • Partner with external agencies, production partners, and freelancers when needed, ensuring quality and alignment

You’re a good fit if you have…

  • 6+ years of experience in art direction, brand storytelling and strategy, or design with a proven track record of building iconic, high-quality brands

  • Strong history of leading creative teams, building brand systems and experiences, and producing impactful campaigns across brand, website, and social

  • Experience leading creative and/or designing high quality and effective marketing websites that convert as well as experimental micro-sites for launches, events, and campaigns

  • Hands-on maker who is willing to get into the weeds, designing collateral, directing shoots, editing videos, whatever the work requires

  • Extremely high bar for quality and attention to detail, from generating briefs and high-level concepts to final execution

  • Resourceful and have great taste, a strong understanding of what looks and feels good, and a strong understanding of cultural relevance and what works

  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, in writing and otherwise, with the ability to articulate creative vision and secure buy-in from stakeholders

  • A portfolio that demonstrates strong brand instincts, versatility, and a clear point of view

Even better if you have…

  • Experience organizing and hosting events for executive or talent audiences that strengthen relationships, spark conversation, and extend brand reach beyond the room

  • An understanding of both talent marketing and B2B enterprise marketing in relationship-driven industries

  • Experience sourcing and working with external agencies, vendors, and managing creative partnerships

  • A track record of building and retaining top creative talent across design, content, and production

Benefits

  • Free lunch and dinner.

  • Health, dental, and vision coverage.

  • $150 monthly gym stipend.

Compensation

$150K to $250K base salary + initial equity grant + annual performance-based equity bonuses.
