About the role

Block's in-house creative team builds the brand platforms and campaigns behind Cash App, Square, and Afterpay. We're hiring a creative director who originates the big idea (brand platforms, repositionings, campaign concepts) and stays with it until it's in market.Strategy sits inside creative, so you shape the brief rather than answer it, then carry the idea across every medium it lives in: film, social, experiential, copy, and online and offline activations.

What they're looking for

  • A portfolio of work you led as a creative director: brand platforms, repositionings, campaigns, activations
  • An art direction background and the visual judgment to lead the idea in any medium
  • A track record setting creative vision and quality standards for a brand, while staying hands-on with the work
  • Credibility with cross-functional leadership as a peer
  • A history of catching cultural shifts early and putting them in the work
  • Experience carrying brand thinking across multiple products or business lines
More about this role

It all started with an idea at Block in 2013. Initially built to take the pain out of peer-to-peer payments, Cash App has gone from a simple product with a single purpose to a dynamic ecosystem, developing unique financial products, including Afterpay/Clearpay, to provide a better way to send, spend, invest, borrow and save to our 50+ million monthly active customers. We want to redefine the world’s relationship with money to make it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.

Today, Cash App has thousands of employees working globally across office and remote locations, with a culture geared toward innovation, collaboration and impact. We’ve been a distributed team since day one, and many of our roles can be done remotely from the countries where Cash App operates. No matter the location, we tailor our experience to ensure our employees are creative, productive, and happy.
