About the role
Cityfurnish is hiring a Brand Lead to own and elevate all brand communications across channels, build and lead a creative team, and manage influencer partnerships in a fast-paced, ownership-driven startup environment.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end brand communication for Cityfurnish across all external touchpoints — website, app, performance ads, WhatsApp, email, social media, and listing platforms.
- Create and manage content for website pages, app screens, product listings, and landing pages that convert.
- Lead creative strategy and execution for performance marketing — including static creatives, short-form videos, reels, and motion graphics that drive ROI.
- Establish and enforce brand guidelines, tone of voice, and visual standards across every channel. Act as the quality gatekeeper for all outbound communication.
- Build, hire, and manage a creative team — graphic designers, video editors, video interns, and motion designers — to produce high-quality output at speed.
- Own the influencer marketing function — screen, shortlist, and onboard influencers/creators who align with Cityfurnish’s brand. Manage end-to-end influencer relationships, briefs, content approvals, and deliverables.
- Produce influencer-led content that can be repurposed as performance ads and organic social posts, ensuring it meets brand standards while feeling authentic.
- Collaborate directly with founders on strategic projects, campaign ideation, and brand positioning decisions.
- Review and approve all creatives before they go live — ensuring they meet brand hygiene standards while performing well in paid channels.
- Continuously audit all communication channels (website copy, listing copy, CRM messages, notifications) and fix inconsistencies proactively.
- Stay current with D2C brand trends, competitor creative strategies, influencer landscape, and emerging content formats.
Qualifications
- 2+ years of experience in a brand, creative, or content leadership role — preferably at a D2C or consumer startup.
- Demonstrated experience managing or building a creative team (designers, video editors, interns).
- Hands-on experience with influencer management — screening creators, negotiating collaborations, managing deliverables, and measuring impact.
- Strong portfolio showing high-performing creatives — statics and videos that drove measurable results in performance marketing.
- Excellent command over brand communication — you can write compelling copy, brief a designer, and review output with an eye for detail.
- Experience owning brand hygiene across multiple channels simultaneously (website, app, ads, email, WhatsApp).
- Comfortable working directly with founders in a high-ownership, fast-paced startup environment.
- Strong understanding of what makes creatives perform in paid media (Meta, Google, programmatic).
- AI-Native Mindset (Strongly Preferred): actively using AI tools to accelerate content creation, ideation, and iteration; able to demonstrate how AI increased output speed and quality; views AI as a multiplier; bonus if you’ve built AI workflows/automations for brand/content.
