Creative DirectorZoe

ZOE is combining scientific research at a scale never before imagined and cutting-edge AI to improve the health of millions. 

 

Created by the world’s top scientists, our personalised nutrition program is radically reimagining a fundamental human need – eating well for your own body. Currently available in the US, and available for pre-order in the UK, having generated a waitlist of over 300,000, ZOE is already helping tens of thousands of ZOE members adopt healthier habits and achieve their goals.

 

We are also the team behind the popular COVID Symptom Study, which played a critical role in the fight against COVID in the UK and has now expanded to become the ZOE Health Study (ZHS). ZHS uses the power of community science to conduct large-scale research from the comfort of contributors’ homes to understand health and prevent disease. Our collective work and expertise in biology, engineering, data science, and nutrition science has led to multiple breakthrough papers in leading scientific journals such as Nature Medicine, Science, The Lancet, and more.

 

A remote-first, well-funded startup, we are backed by founders, investors, and entrepreneurs who have built multi-billion dollar technology companies. We are always looking for innovative thinkers and doers to join our team on a thrilling mission to tackle epic health problems that span the globe. Together, we can improve human health and touch millions of lives.

 

We value inclusivity, transparency, ownership, open-mindedness and diversity. We are passionate about delivering great results and learning in the open. We want our teams to have the freedom to make long-term, high-impact decisions, and the well-being of our teammates and the people around us is a top priority.

About the team

You’ll be a part of a larger Design team while working closely with cross-functional leaders from Marketing and Product. 

Brand design's primary goal is to help more people discover the benefits of ZOE and build a stronger emotional connection with them through experience. Brand design works on initiatives that educate and build interest in ZOE’s groundbreaking science and offering in close collaboration with other teams, such as Science, Product, and Growth Marketing.

This role will report to VP of Design, Vlad Zely, who spent the last five years at Miro, running their iconic rebranding and helping to grow the product and brand from a seed round startup to a unicorn, $17.5B business. 

About the role

As Creative Director, you would have a rare opportunity to shape and mature a brand that changes people’s life, contributes to their well-being and does it on an unprecedented scale with science at its core. That comes with great responsibility and requires care on top of all the technical and leadership skills. 

ZOE is a complex product with multi-faceted touch points: from physical test kits to digital channels, to partnerships with ambassadors, to medical devices and wearables, to podcasts, socials, and TV. An ideal candidate has a demonstrated track record across multiple domains, including physical and digital mediums and omni-channel campaigns. 

You'll drive creative excellence from concept to execution, leading a team of creatives and managing relationships with external contractors. Partnering closely with Marketing, Design and Product, you will help establish ZOE as a category leader.

Above all, you are a craftsperson who leads by example and finds joy in being hands-on. It’s a strategic leadership role with a solid affinity for design and creativity. Given our scale, we would appreciate a leader who walks the talk and is passionate about helping others deliver exceptional work through mentorship, guidance, and co-creation.

P.S. The brand identity is still quite fresh, and there are many ways and directions we can go about it. It’s also phenomenal naming with just three graphically-refined and very distinctive letters: Z O E. Imagine how many remarkable, aesthetically pleasing, and truly impactful things we can create with it. Are you up for a challenge? 

What you can expect from us Aside from ensuring the industry-benchmark compensation package and providing you with all the hardware and software you need, we have worked hard for our list of benefits to be focused on things that matter to our team members most.
