Creative Director

The role

We are looking for a Creative Director to lead the creative direction and content production of Axtan Capital and its projects.

You will shape how our brands communicate across video, social media, campaigns, and digital platforms. The role combines creative leadership with hands-on involvement in production, from developing concepts and visual references to reviewing and delivering the final work.

You will work across the full content process, setting the standard for quality, coordinating production, and ensuring that ideas are translated into clear and effective work.

I. The standard

We care about the quality of the final result and the process behind it.

The person in this role must be able to set a clear creative standard, recognise what needs to improve, and make decisions when the answer is not obvious. The work will be fast-moving and varied, requiring initiative, organisation, strong judgement, and attention to detail.

Content is central to how Axtan Capital and its projects are understood by the market. This role will have a direct influence on the way the company communicates, grows, and presents itself publicly.

II. About the opportunity

Axtan Capital is expanding its content operation and is looking for someone to take responsibility for its creative direction.

This is a role for someone who wants to build a stronger creative function, not simply receive briefs and approve deliverables. You will help define the systems, formats, and standards that allow the team to produce better work with greater consistency.

You will work closely with the partners and project leads across AS CLUB, Pludata, Dolux, and other Axtan projects. The role will involve developing creative concepts, planning productions, coordinating collaborators, and ensuring that the final work meets the required standard.

We are looking for someone who can combine creative judgement with practical execution. You should be comfortable leading a project, giving clear feedback, and getting involved in the work when necessary.

III. What you will do

Lead the creative direction of Axtan Capital’s content and communication.

Define and maintain the visual and editorial standards across the company’s projects.

Develop concepts, creative treatments, scripts, references, and production plans.

Oversee the production of video and digital content from planning through to delivery.

Coordinate filming, editing, design, sound, lighting, equipment, and external collaborators.

Review final assets and provide clear, useful feedback.

Develop content formats that can be produced consistently across social media and other digital channels.

Improve the way ideas are translated into scripts, visuals, edits, thumbnails, and published content.

Build a more organised production process that improves quality and speed.

Work with the partners and project leads to ensure that creative work supports the objectives of each project.

IV. What you will need

Professional experience in creative direction, video production, editing, or digital content.

Strong knowledge of video production, including filming, lighting, sound, framing, and post-production.

Experience using Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, or equivalent tools.

A strong understanding of content for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and other digital platforms.

Experience creating and reviewing visual content, including video, thumbnails, graphics, and campaign assets.

Experience leading a creative team or coordinating external collaborators.

Good creative judgement and the ability to identify what makes content clear, relevant, and effective.

The ability to take an idea from concept to final delivery without constant direction.

Strong organisation and the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.

High standards, initiative, and a willingness to take responsibility for the final result.

Fluency in Portuguese and English.

The strongest candidates will combine creative ability with practical production experience. They will be able to set a direction, explain their decisions, improve the work of others, and contribute directly to the quality of the final output.
