Creative Lead - Tracksuit Studio
Tracksuit · New York, United States · 1 mo ago
HybridMarketingFull-time
About the role
We're building something unusual: an in-house creative studio for a B2B SaaS brand, producing a wide range of bespoke content under one roof. We need someone to lead it—someone who’s one part creative director, one part editor-in-chief, one part creative production manager. Think SNL show-runner, not three jobs stitched together. You set the vision, vibe-check everything that goes out the door, and make sure it actually ships.
Responsibilities
- Develop concepts, campaigns, and brand platform work across every channel and format
- Provide creative direction across the full department; your authority extends beyond your direct reports
- Manage and grow a team of writers, video editors, TikTokers, social media managers and other talent who want to do the best work of their careers
- Concept and create key pieces yourself to keep your craft-soul alive and stay creatively match fit—you're a player/coach, not a spectator
- Work with product, growth, and marketing science to turn briefs into ideas that travel
- Brief and direct freelancers and production crews during campaign peaks and big brand moments
- Set the creative processes, review cadences, and quality bar as the department scales
- Keep voice, tone, and identity consistent everywhere—obviously Tracksuit in spirit, style and vibes
- Work closely with the Global Art Director, Brand Manager and wider design crew to ensure the brand asset buffet is growing not just follower counts
- Build a culture where ideas flow like an unhinged group chat at 2am, where people love challenging each other's work without feeling threatened or demotivated
- Give honest critique and mentorship that builds taste, not just manages workload
What we're looking for
- Experience leading creative talent and multi-disciplinary teams from concept to launch
- Proven track record shipping integrated campaigns at a high craft bar, whatever the budget
- Ability to set vision, influence senior stakeholders, and tie creative decisions to strategy
- A knack for turning even dull insights into culture-driving ideas people actually want to watch
- Excellent communicator: you simplify complexity, make fast calls, and bring people with you
- Experience managing agencies and partners across markets, known for raising quality and speed
- A portfolio of world-class craft and storytelling that earns attention rather than buying it
- Deep fluency in social and creator ecosystems, and how to turn cultural signals into breakthrough ideas
- Experience setting up creative operating rhythms with marketing, product, and design
- Full-stack creative capability: you produce, direct, and bring your own voice to a story rather than specialising narrowly
Benefits
- Competitive market-rate remuneration, reviewed regularly with a strong focus on fairness and transparency
- Employee Share Option Program (ESOP) so that everyone on the team shares in Tracksuit's success
- Annual wellness bonus, access to EAP (employee assistance programme), and generous annual leave
- Paid parental leave and support for a smooth return to work
- Annual L&D budget plus opportunities for growth, mentorship and exposure
- Office-first culture with flexibility to support balance and performance
- Epic Tracksuit wardrobe reflecting our vibe—fun, informal, practical and ready for anything
- Pet-friendly in principle and practice, with the occasional four-legged visitor adding to the charm
