About the Role
Nixon is looking for a Director of Brand Content & Creative to lead - and create - the work that brings the Nixon brand to life.
This role will develop ideas, concepts, campaigns and content while providing creative direction to Nixon’s internal team of designers, photographers and videographers.
Sitting at the intersection of brand, marketing, content and creative , you’ll translate business objectives, consumer insights and product stories into creative work that builds awareness, relevance and demand for Nixon.
We’re looking for someone with a strong creative point of view who can help answer two important questions: What stories should Nixon tell, and how should we tell them?
This is a hands‑on creative leadership role. You’ll set the direction, develop the ideas and work alongside the team to bring them to life.

Ensure campaigns feel connected across every consumer touchpoint.

Raise the overall quality and consistency of creative output across the Nixon Studio.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Partner closely with Brand, DTC, Digital Marketing, Ecommerce, Product and Sales teams.
Translate business and commercial objectives into strong creative ideas and consumer-facing stories.
Ensure creative teams understand the strategic objectives behind campaigns, launches and content.
Work collaboratively across departments to take projects from concept through execution.
Culture & Brand Relevance
Stay connected to action sports, fashion, music, art, design and wider culture.
Bring cultural insights and emerging creative ideas into Nixon’s work.
Help ensure Nixon remains relevant and recognisable while maintaining the identity that makes the brand distinctive.
Skills & Experience
6+ years of experience in creative direction, brand creative, content, advertising or integrated marketing.
Hands‑on creative capabilities in one or more areas including art direction, design, copywriting, photography, video or content creation.
Strong understanding of digital, social and contemporary content.
Experience directing photography and video.
Strong portfolio demonstrating both creative thinking and hands‑on creative work.
Experience developing integrated campaigns from concept through execution.
Experience leading multidisciplinary creative teams.
Strong conceptual thinking, storytelling and presentation skills.
Ability to provide clear creative feedback while remaining actively involved in creating the work.
Experience working with culturally relevant consumer brands preferred.

What Success Looks Like
You’ll help Nixon create better ideas, not just more assets .
The Studio will have stronger strategic and creative direction. Campaigns will feel more connected. Content will become more relevant and recognisable. And the creative team will have a leader who is willing to work alongside them to make the work better.
The result should be creative that feels distinctly, consistently and unmistakably Nixon.
