Creative Director

Job Description

About the company

At VEED, our mission is to make video creation accessible to anyone.

No hard-to-use equipment, painful learning curve, or keeping track of multiple subscriptions to take your ideas from record → share. With VEED, you can do this with a single tool.

In just a few years, we’ve gone from one user to millions. From no revenue to $45M+ ARR. From bootstrapped to backed by Sequoia, one of the biggest VC firms in the world. From a team of two to a team of 180+. And we’re seeking more talented, motivated and entrepreneurial individuals to join our growing team.

Where and how we work

At VEED we are hybrid, enabling teams and individuals to design their day and integrate work and life.

For our London, Amsterdam, and Barcelona-based teammates, we ask that you spend 3 days a week in the office during your first 6 months — it’s the best way to connect, collaborate, and get to know your team. After that, you’ll shift to 1 day a week in the office, with flexibility to choose the day that suits you best.

About the role

We’re looking for a Creative Director to elevate and unify VEED’s visual identity across product and marketing, so every touchpoint feels bold, cohesive, and unmistakably VEED.

This role is for a creative leader who knows how to set a vision and make it real, someone who balances taste with execution, and brand storytelling with systems thinking. You’ll lead a small team of brand and motion designers, working closely with our CEO, product designers, and the marketing team to take full ownership of how VEED shows up in the world: across UI, campaigns, templates, and every visual touchpoint in between.

Your mission: empower our users to create the coolest videos on the internet, the kind that stop the scroll. From product moments to social posts, your work will define how people see, feel, and share VEED.

What you'll be doing

  • Brand Leadership: Define and evolve VEED’s brand identity, ensuring visual consistency across all channels and customer touchpoints.
  • Creative Direction: Oversee the conceptualization and execution for everything users and customers see; from marketing campaigns (web, social, events, brand assets), to the product UI (motion, layout, visual language), to the in-product templates and content that help creators make the best-looking videos on the internet.
  • Team Management: Build, lead, and mentor a talented team of designers, fostering a culture of creativity, collaboration, and innovation.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Marketing, Product, Growth, and Content teams to bring our brand to life at every step of the user journey.
  • Design Excellence: Ensure world-class execution with a deep love for the craft, ensuring every brand touchpoint meets the highest standards of creativity, detail, and visual impact.
  • Influence & Advocacy: Champion brand design across VEED, aligning it with business goals, influencing stakeholders, and acting as a brand guardian to ensure consistency, clarity, and creative ambition in everything we put out into the world.
  • Operational Efficiency: Establish scalable design processes, workflows, and tools, leveraging AI where it adds value, to enhance efficiency and collaboration across teams.
  • Next-Gen AI Fluency: You see AI not as a shortcut, but as a creative amplifier. We’re looking for a leader who’s deeply curious about AI’s evolving role in design, someone who can use its potential to streamline workflows, accelerate production, and unlock new levels of creativity across the team.
  • AI-Driven Content & Experimentation: Leverage the latest AI video generation tools and trends to empower creators, marketers, and small businesses to produce, repurpose, and scale video content. Stay ahead of what’s possible; prompting, editing, and storytelling, so VEED remains at the forefront of next-gen content creation.

About you

  • You’re an experienced brand or creative design leader with 5+ years of experience, with a sharp eye, strong taste, and a portfolio full of visually impactful work.
  • You have experience working in a fast-paced startup or SaaS environment, ideally with AI-powered products.
  • You’ve led design teams before and know how to balance direction, hands-on collaboration, and space for your team to thrive.
  • You’re fluent in both product and marketing environments; just as comfortable evolving UI design systems as you are crafting bold campaign visuals.
  • You’re obsessed with video as a medium and have examples of video work; whether brand, motion, or social, that show you know what good looks like.
  • You’re confident partnering directly with the CEO and other senior stakeholders, shaping a visual direction that aligns with company vision and drives brand impact.
  • You’re energized by storytelling and know how to turn ideas into compelling visual systems that inspire, connect, and bring others along with your vision.
  • You care deeply about consistency, detail, and craft; but know when to go lo-fi to test an idea fast.
  • You’re proactive, collaborative, and love working across disciplines to create something bigger than the sum of its parts.
  • You have a natural spark that brings energy and momentum to creative projects.

What we offer

  • Monthly subsidy programme: Everyone values different things, so we give you a monthly allowance to spend how it suits you best — whether that’s on office furniture, childcare, gym memberships, or anything else that makes your life easier.
  • Unlimited paid holidays: Time with family, friends, or just yourself is priceless.
  • Home office set-up: We make sure your home office is fully equipped with everything you need — laptop, monitors, headsets, keyboards, and more — so you can work comfortably and creatively.
  • Mental health benefit: We’ve partnered with Spill to offer confidential mental health support to all our team members.
  • Equity: When VEED wins, you win. Our stock options let you share in the company’s growth and be a part of our journey.

Even if you don’t have every skill listed here, we encourage you to apply. We value curiosity, drive, and the ability to learn just as much as existing expertise.

We think what matters is people. After all, a company is just a group of people. We don’t care about where you’re from, what school you went to or where you worked before. If you’ve done exceptional work, we want to hear from you. Join us on our mission to make creative storytelling with video simple and accessible for everyone.
