Most Associate Creative Directors need a 50-person crew, an Arri Alexa, three lighting trucks, and a vanity van to make a good video. We aren’t looking for a traditional agency diva.

We are looking for a lethal, hands-on ACD who thrives in the fast-paced D2C space. We need a creative who can walk into a room with just a DOP, a couple of lights, and a raw idea, and walk out with a crazy, high-retention, viral content piece. If you can write the concept, own the client brief, dial in the lighting yourself, and engineer short-form content that actually converts, we want you on our team. What You’ll Be Doing (The Real Work):

Owning the Brief & The Shoot: You are the captain of the creative ship. You will take the overarching brand strategy, translate it into razor-sharp creative briefs, and lead the execution on set from action to cut.

Guerilla Production Mastery: You don't need a massive budget to make magic. You know how to conceptualize and direct scroll-stopping Reels, TikToks, and Meta ads utilizing minimal equipment while still maintaining premium brand aesthetics.

Concepting & Writing: You aren’t just a manager; you are a creator. You will ideate, script, and storyboard high-converting short-form content, embedding psychological hooks and direct-response tactics into every second.





Lighting & Visual Direction: You have a deep, technical understanding of lighting. Whether it's crafting a moody cinematic look or a bright, native UGC vibe, you know exactly how to manipulate shadows and light to elevate the production value of a minimal setup.

Directing for Retention: You understand that the first 3 seconds dictate the success of a campaign. You will direct talent, control the pacing on set, and collaborate with editors to ensure the final cut retains attention and drives revenue.

Who You

Are

You are a true D2C native. You understand the difference between a vanity brand campaign and a performance-driven conversion asset.

You are a Swiss Army knife: part strategist, part writer, part director, and part lighting nerd.

You hate bloated production sets. You move rapid, iterate quickly, and rely on raw creativity rather than expensive gear to solve visual problems.

You take radical ownership of the final product. If the hook fails or the video looks flat, you don't blame the algorithm or the budget—you fix the creative.
