Our client is on a mission to revolutionize snacking with the power of plant-based ingredients. Their bold, crunchy, and delicious snacks are sold across the U.S. in top retailers and online, and they’re growing fast.

They are a lean, entrepreneurial team that moves fast, thinks big, and celebrates bold ideas. Every person makes a direct impact on growth and success. If you’re passionate about CPG, love working in a high-energy environment, and want to be part of a brand that’s shaking up the snack aisle, this is your chance to join.

Our client is looking for a Creative Director who is both a visionary and a doer — a creative leader who can shape the next evolution of the brand while driving execution across packaging, content, campaigns, and social media.

This role owns brand identity, creative strategy, and storytelling across every touchpoint — from packaging and advertising to retail, digital, and experiential activations. The ideal candidate has helped scale a fast-growing CPG brand beyond $100M and thrives in a hands-on, fast-moving environment.
