About the Role

DoorDash’s mission is to grow and empower local economies. By building intelligent, last-mile delivery technology for local cities, DoorDash connects people with the local businesses they care about — helping grow businesses and the communities that support those businesses.

To further this mission, we’re looking for a terrific creative leader to build out and lead our internal creative studio. The brief is to build a world-class studio populated by diverse eclectic talent that both creates and makes - with capabilities including animation, content creation, production, editing, editorial and design - and consistently develops remarkable work for DoorDash and Caviar while cultivating a consistent and compelling voice through all touch points. 

The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of leading breakthrough efforts across film, social media, web, retail, events, editorial content, CRM and design; and needs to be able to thrive in a fast-paced, iterative, and semi-structured environment. This person must be comfortable guiding teams, agencies and/or production partners, but should be willing to roll up their sleeves to do the work when necessary.

Based out of our SF Headquarters and reporting into the VP, Marketing, you will lead a terrific team; partner with Marketers across the business to develop work that drives business impact; and elevate the profile of creativity as a growth lever. Effortless collaboration is a must - as this role will touch every part of the business - as is a genuine appetite for building: for building and motivating people, for building a culture that fosters creativity; for building teams; and for building new capabilities. 

What You'll Do

• Define and lead Creative Direction for DoorDash & Caviar 
• Further develop the creative, visual, and tonal identity for DoorDash & Caviar - expressed in ways that resonate with our audiences on each side of the Marketplace (Merchants, Consumers, Dashers)
• Create and sustain a culture of excellence as a beloved leader of the creative organization and as a trusted and sought-after collaborator for Marketing teams
• Build, inspire, enable, and energize a world-class creative team
• Build a culture where people love to work (and want to come and work), feel they can flourish, and are proud of what they contribute
• Lead the development of remarkable ideas - across a variety of marketing touchpoints - that resonate with our audiences, earn an outsized share of cultural conversation, and create competitive advantage. 
• Work cross-functionally, balancing the needs of stakeholders and breaking down complex narratives into simple, compelling ideas
• Help lead and manage both in-house and external teams in creative strategy, execution and production

Qualifications

• 12+ years experience as a creative leader
• Experience developing and managing marketing campaigns and programs in a data-driven, integrated marketing environment
• Experience across creative expression: traditional, digital (including products), experiential, and ideas that drive earned media
• Demonstrated expertise in consistently creating remarkable work that earns an outsize share of the cultural conversation
• Experience building and leading teams from the ground up
• Creative and collaborative - you love working with a team and solving challenging business problems through creativity
• A link to an online portfolio showcasing your work (include link on your resume)
