Director Of Brand Assets Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Rockstar is recruiting for a fandom-powered wellness brand creating functional powders for women who romanticize their rituals. The client sits at the intersection of wellness, culture, and storytelling, starting with the reading ritual and expanding into a broader universe of mood-first, aesthetically driven products.

The brand is not an afterthought. How it looks, sounds, collaborates, and shows up in the world is central to how it wins.

It is an early-stage, well-capitalized DTC brand with experienced founders and a clear path to scale. This is a foundational hire.

THE ROLE

The client is hiring a Director of Brand to build and steward the brand in close partnership with the CEO across every touchpoint.

The brand is both a founder- and community-led. The CEO brings a strong point of view on brand strategy, creative direction, and cultural positioning. This role is not about reinventing the brand from scratch. It is about translating a clear vision into exceptional, scalable execution, while also bringing new, fresh ideas to the table.

This is a highly hands-on role. In the early stages, the Director will be writing briefs, reviewing creative in detail, managing partners, shaping influencer collaborations, and ensuring the brand shows up with consistency and intention everywhere it appears.

HOW THIS ROLE WORKS

The Director will work in close creative partnership with the CEO, who sets the overarching brand vision and creative direction.

The role is to:

- Pressure-test ideas thoughtfully and elevate them through execution

- Translate vision into systems, output, and programs that scale

- Ensure the brand is executed with rigor, taste, and speed

The right person for this role enjoys founder partnership, values healthy creative debate, and knows how to move from vision to execution without ego.

WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR

This role is ideal for someone who has been a Senior Brand Manager or Director-level brand lead at a culturally relevant consumer brand and is ready to own brand execution end-to-end.

They have:

- Helped build or scale a brand with a strong point of view and aesthetic discipline

- Operated inside a real brand engine where quality, velocity, and taste mattered

- Been deeply involved in social, influencer, and community ecosystems

They are now looking for:

- True ownership of brand execution, not a narrow function

- A collaborative partnership with a highly engaged founder

- The opportunity to build a culturally resonant brand from the ground up

If a candidate is uncomfortable giving direct creative feedback, getting into the weeds, or working closely with a founder, this is not the role.
