Creative Lead - Build the Brand of Tomorrow – up to £100k
Location: Hybrid – UK-based (Bristol – 2-3 days per week in the office)
Type: Full-time | Well-funded pre-launch start-up | Equity included
This isn’t just another design role.
It’s a chance to shape the visual soul of a company from day one — no legacy, no red tape, no competitors.
Backed by a globally respected IT thought leader with a track record at some of the world’s most admired tech brands, this stealth-mode start-up is building something bold, disruptive, and industry-defining.
Operating at the intersection of AI, consulting, and creativity, they’re redefining how software is built - and now, they’re ready to redefine how it looks and feels.
The Role
As Creative Lead, you’ll be the driving force behind everything visual - from brand identity and storytelling to UI design and marketing campaigns.
You’ll craft a distinctive aesthetic that brings their ambitious mission to life, creating not just visuals, but a movement.
This is the perfect role for a designer who combines artistic flair with strategic vision -someone who believes that design is more than function, it’s the voice of a brand.
Responsibilities:
* Shape a world-class visual identity that captures imagination and builds instant recognition.
* Design across every touchpoint — product, web, marketing, and motion — to create a cohesive brand experience.
* Collaborate directly with founders and the Product team to ensure every interaction feels effortless and joyful.
* Drive brand storytelling through compelling campaigns and visuals that communicate innovation and trust.
* Oversee creative partners or agencies when needed — you’ll have the freedom (and responsibility) to direct and decide.
* Blend creativity with clarity, balancing artistic impact with a strong sense of brand strategy.
Why This Role Rocks
* No competition. This company is carving out an entirely new category — you’ll help define the visual language of an industry with no playbook.
* Ground-up influence. You’ll build the brand from zero, with total creative freedom.
* High-impact environment. Join ~15 top-tier developers and designers building a product months from launch — and years ahead of the curve.
* Global leadership. Work alongside a CEO who has already built one unicorn and is backed by world-class talent and funding.
* Ownership that matters. Competitive salary + meaningful share options at pre-launch valuation.
You will be..
* A visual designer or creative lead with a distinctive, artistic style.
* Passionate about turning ideas into identities and brands into movements.
* Equally comfortable discussing colour palettes and brand strategy.
* Energised by building something from scratch in a fast-paced, ambitious environment.
