AlumierMD is hiring a Creative Lead, Brand & Design to own and elevate the creative output of a fast growing, medical grade skincare brand operating B2B2C across the UK, Ireland, Europe, Canada and the USA. This isn't an execution only, brief taking role, we want someone who brings ideas to the table before they're asked for, who can take complex clinical and scientific evidence and make people care about it without losing credibility, and who's comfortable being part of early strategic conversations that shape how a launch gets told, not just how it gets designed. You'll lead a team of two designers, report into the Global Director of Marketing & Creative, and be the quality bar and creative conscience for everything that carries the AlumierMD name.
Key responsibilities

- Lead, brief and manage a team of two designers, setting priorities and reviewing output to a consistently high standard.
- Own creative execution across campaigns, NPD launches, clinic and consumer facing assets, digital, social and print.

- Actively explore how AI tools can support ideation, visualisation, content creation, versioning and production, balanced with strong human creative and brand judgement.
- Support creative output across UK, Ireland, Europe, Canada and USA, working with regional marketing managers to adapt creative for local markets.
- Partner with external agencies, photographers and freelancers where the in-house team needs extra capacity.

- Present creative concepts and strategic thinking to senior stakeholders with confidence and a clear rationale.
