Creative Director Job at 24 Seven Talent in Santa Monica

We are building a world where beauty is accessible, inclusive, and sensitive. Our goal is to push the boundaries of what beauty should be: a mix of high quality, high standards, and high levels of fun. We strive to be a beauty big sister—one that knows what’s right (clean, non-toxic, vegan, cruelty-free) but also knows how to have a good time (clean beauty doesn’t have to be so serious!).

What You’ll Be Doing

As the Creative Director, you will own and shape the creative vision of the brand, leading all aspects of design, storytelling, and content execution across every marketing channel. You will be responsible for driving brand consistency, creative excellence, and innovation while ensuring all creative work supports business goals and resonates with our audience.
