Deer Designer is looking for a high-energy Creative Director (Design Lead) based in Latin America to lead a high-output design team. We offer a stable, leadership-track remote career where you will set the standard for "Western-market" design quality across multiple global brands.
You are the ultimate "Player-Coach." You aren't just managing a team; you are a creative gatekeeper who unblocks designers, translates messy briefs into clear directions, and ensures every pixel meets brand standards without missing a deadline.
Tasks
- Lead and coach a design pod to maintain quality consistency at scale.
- Triage and manage delivery workflows to ensure work ships predictably and on time.
- Set creative standards for layout, typography, and brand systems (Figma/Adobe).
- Act as a strategic bridge between client feedback and designer execution.
Requirements
- Experience: 5+ years in design with 1–3+ years leading creative teams (agency preferred).
- Tech Stack: Mastery of Figma (design systems/libraries) and Adobe Creative Cloud.
- Art Direction: Strong brand judgment and the ability to give fast, actionable feedback.
- Language: Advanced English (verbal/written) is essential for client-facing leadership.
- Location: 100% Remote, but you must be locally based in LATAM (e.g., Colombia, Brazil, Argentina).
Benefits
- Stability: Long-term, permanent remote contract in a "player-coach" leadership role.
- Incentives: Competitive salary plus Christmas bonuses and referral rewards ($250).
- Time Off: Comprehensive leave package including 15 paid days, 10 unpaid, and 2 sick days.
- Growth: Direct path to career progression with specialized training in Figma prototyping and accessibility.
