Job description

Damnzai Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

We’re not hiring a "Creative Director" to sit in meetings.

We’re looking for a hands-on creative lead who gets how to move fast, think smart, and design for impact.

You’ll be the creative counterpart to the founder, working side-by-side to translate strategy into scroll-stopping, store-shelf-staring, conversion-hitting visuals across a growing multi-brand portfolio. From packaging to landing pages, from reels to retail activations, you’ll shape how our brands show up to the world.

We don’t separate “branding” from “performance”; we believe every visual should convert or connect. You’ll help lead that charge.

And most importantly, you need to be someone who loves experimenting with AI . Whether it’s Midjourney for visuals, GPT for conceptual hooks, or custom workflows that help us deliver faster, we want someone who’s actively pushing the boundaries of what creative teams can do.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own creative direction across all agency clients and campaigns
  • Build and lead a lean creative team (designer, video editor, freelancers, etc. - yes, you get to hire your own team)
  • Use AI tools actively (Midjourney, DALL
  • E, ChatGPT, Runway, etc.) to speed up ideation and execution
  • Translate strategy into execution — not just decks, but real creative that lands
  • Review and approve assets for social, ads, packaging, websites, branding, and decks
  • Collaborate with performance, copy, and brand ops to launch campaigns across multiple platforms
  • Build creative systems, templates, and feedback loops for faster, more effective output
  • Challenge the founder when needed — not to slow things down, but to push them further

What We’re Looking For

Experiences

  • 6–10 years in creative or art direction , ideally across agency and in-house roles
  • Portfolio that includes : ad creative, visual identity, landing pages, packaging, and social content
  • Experience across multiple industries (beauty, wellness, F&B, DTC, tech preferred)
  • Has led or mentored small teams — and delivered big ideas with lean resources
  • Skills

  • Strong understanding of creative–strategy–performance alignment
  • Hands-on with AI tools (or actively learning and building with them)
  • Can brief, manage, and quality control across multiple creative formats
  • Comfortable juggling multiple brand voices and tones without confusion
  • Bonus : motion, video, 3D, or creative automation experience
  • Mindset

  • Curious, adaptive, obsessed with growth (personal and brand-level)
  • Not a “yes man” — challenges ideas when needed, refines them when right
  • Believes that taste is a weapon , and that AI is an amplifier, not a replacement
  • Loves building : systems, brands, creative culture, and standout moments
  • Calm under pressure, decisive with feedback, and thrives in creative chaos
  • Why This Role is Different

  • You’ll work directly with the founder , not just of an agency, but multiple ventures and businesses.
  • You’ll be part of the strategy , not just reacting to it
  • You’ll have the chance to shape multiple real-world brands at different stages.
  • You’ll experiment with AI workflows and help reimagine the creative process
  • You’ll build the creative backbone of the group , with freedom to innovate
  • Compensated & Perks

  • Competitive base salary (commensurate with experience, portfolio, and leadership ability)
  • Performance bonuses tied to brand growth and impact
  • Access to brand perks (products, treatments, events, marketing resources)
  • Flexibility to test and build your own tools / systems
  • Equity opportunities possible
  • How to Apply

  • Your portfolio — highlight both branding and conversion-driven work
  • A short note : How have you used AI in your creative process so far?
  • Bonus : Show us one piece of work you’re proud of — and one you’d redo, and why
