Head of Creative

Hey good smelling! We’re Fussy… about everything in our mission to banish single-use plastic from your bathroom. That includes the way we look, sound, and show up. We believe building a brand people love starts with unforgettable creative.

After four years of exceptional growth, we’re now looking for a Head of Creative to define, build, and lead our creative function. This is a senior leadership role, responsible not just for output but for shaping how creative drives growth across the business.

You’ll report into our Director of Brand and will work directly with our Founder/Creative Director, partnering across Brand, Growth, Product and Sales to ensure Fussy's creative is distinctive, scalable and commercially effective.

• Ensure Fussy’s creative vision delivers against both brand and commercial goals
• Build, structure and lead a high-performing in-house creative team
• Define ways of working and processes to enable speed and clarity
• Set the standard for creative excellence across the business

• Overall responsibility for art direction of campaigns across all channels
• Work closely with Growth to ensure creative is both beautiful and performance-driven
• Establish creative playbooks to scale output effectively.

• Safeguard Fussy’s visual identity, tone and storytelling across every touchpoint
• Act as the creative sign-off for most touchpoints

• Direct and elevate all creative production
• Oversee concepting, art direction, casting, styling and execution
• Build a scalable production model balancing speed, cost and quality

• Partner with Brand, Growth, NPD and Commercial teams to align creative with business priorities
• Work with external partners (photographers, studios, freelancers) where needed

• Coach, mentor and develop the creative team
• Foster a culture of high standards, curiosity, speed and “fussiness”

Great comes in lots of different forms, and we’re really open to seeing candidates from a range of backgrounds. Given the nature of this role and what we’ll ask of you, we do believe that the following skills are needed to be able to deliver to a high standard:

• Are currently a Head of Creative / Design
• Have experience building and leading creative teams in high-growth DTC, lifestyle or FMCG brands
• From a design background, balancing strong creative instinct and taste
• Are as comfortable setting creative systems as you are shaping standout executions
• Have delivered high-volume, high-quality creative across multiple channels
• Are confident directing both scrappy and high-production shoots
• Are a strong leader who can bring clarity, raise standards, and inspire a team

• You prefer purely executional design work
• You don’t enjoy leading teams or building functions
• You struggle in fast-paced, evolving environments

• A chance to play a part in banishing single-use plastic from the bathroom
• Hybrid working with Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in our London (Shoreditch) office
• 33 days annual leave including flexible bank holidays + a day off for your birthday – we encourage you to take time off to switch off, rest and recharge.
• Our Well Hub membership with a range of fitness & wellbeing options - we care about our team’s wellness, from physical to mental health
• Share options after probation, so that you can benefit from our growth

Fussy are on a mission to banish single-use plastic from the bathroom by designing simple, effective and convenient personal care products that are backed by science not buzzwords. Our first product, a refillable deodorant is now the UK’s top rated natural deodorant and has blessed the armpits of everyone from Holly Willoughby to some very known Dragons’. We have put in place the foundations of a world-class team of employees and advisors and this is a super exciting time to join as we are now looking to accelerate our growth into new products and territories.

We as a brand have the responsibility, consumers have the power and it’s only together we can do this. Power to your pits!
