## Description

Figma is growing its team of creatives and builders on a mission to make design accessible to all.

We're looking for a Director, Creative Brand Expression to join Figma's Brand Studio and drive critical parts of our portfolio. This role is as much about growing a team as it is about growing the work. We're looking for someone who leads with both.

**Responsibilities**

- Manage and develop a team of 4–7 world-class designers, hiring to fill gaps as your portion of the portfolio scales

- Partner with senior creative stakeholders, product designers, and marketers to improve team process and execution, and coach your team through setting creative direction and priorities

- Develop a strong point of view on how Figma's brand shows up in your area and successfully advocate for it across the organisation

- Run and improve team rituals like critiques, reviews, and creative sprints

- Stay in the work , balancing people leadership with direct craft contribution and execution

- Set and maintain a high creative bar through feedback, direction, and coaching

**Requirements**

- 3+ years of creative/design management experience with a track record of building strong, resilient team culture and developing designers across skill levels

- Demonstrated ability to move fluidly between pitching a concept, sketching it out, and shepherding it to completion

- A portfolio demonstrating conceptual and visual direction for campaigns , ideally motion-forward, and across a wide variety of surfaces (digital, OOH, ads, presentations, events)

- Experience influencing teams and stakeholders through strategic thinking, storytelling, and clear communication, with comfort navigating ambiguity as priorities shift

- A true player/coach mindset , as comfortable managing and developing people as you are getting hands-on with the work yourself

**Nice to Have**

- Familiarity with AI-powered creative tools and workflows, and a point of view on how they expand rather than flatten creative expression

- The ability to adapt as priorities evolve, bringing a sense of humour and a proactive, solution-oriented approach

- Comfort exploring new methodologies and continuously pushing to improve both personal and team craft

**Benefits**

- Equity to employees

- Competitive package of additional benefits, including health, dental, and vision coverage; retirement benefits with company contributions; parental leave and reproductive or family planning support; mental health and wellness benefits; and paid time off

- Annual Base Salary Range: $235,000-$317,000 USD
