Creative Director

The Problem

Flock's creative group is expanding as the company raises its standard of visual storytelling and campaign execution across brand, film, and digital experiences. This momentum creates a need for unified creative leadership to turn complex technology and public safety outcomes into compelling, human-centered narratives. You will own that direction, driving the creative concept, visual identity, and craft bar across design, film, and motion.

What You'll Own

• Direct integrated campaigns, product launch narratives, and flagship brand films from initial concept through final delivery.

• Define and maintain the visual, cinematic, and editorial standards across design, motion, and video production to build a recognizable creative signature.

• Lead and mentor multidisciplinary craft teams, guiding discipline leads in art direction, storytelling, and creative critique.

• Establish operational systems, including reference libraries, templates, and production guidelines, that elevate quality while improving delivery speed.

• Partner with brand strategy and production leadership to translate executive goals into clear creative briefs and execution plans.

What This Role is Not

• This is not a hands-off review role, you will actively shape concepts, guide edits, direct art execution, and refine details across all mediums.

• This isn't a high-volume template production management job, your main focus is establishing concept quality and narrative depth.

• This is not an isolated brand strategy position, you will work directly alongside production and cross-functional teams to ship live campaigns.

What You Bring

• Proven track record leading multidisciplinary creative teams across art direction, design, motion, and cinematic film production.

• Deep portfolio demonstrating high-craft visual design alongside narrative documentary or high-paced commercial storytelling.

• Advanced fluency in the complete production lifecycle, including typography, editing pace, color grading, sound design, and finishing standards.

• Experience setting practical brand guidelines, design systems, and creative review frameworks for internal teams and agency partners.

• Ability to direct campaigns that balance emotional human narrative with clear technical product messaging.
