What they actually want (must-haves)
  • 8+ years in brand, creative, or design leadership, including experience building or scaling a brand function at a high-growth company, agency, or in-house creative team.
  • A portfolio of brand work you've led end-to-end — identity systems, rebrands, or campaigns that measurably shaped how a company was perceived.
  • A track record of hiring, developing, and leading high-performing creative teams.
  • Strong operational instincts: you've built creative processes that scale, and you can explain them clearly — not just describe good taste.
  • Hands-on experience using AI in creative production — not just a point of view on it, but actual workflows you've built or adopted to scale output without diluting quality. You've shipped things using generative tools, not just experimented with them.
  • Excellent craft across visual identity, typography, voice, and motion, with the judgment to know when to lead by example and when to delegate.
Nice to have
  • Background in fintech, B2B SaaS, or another trust-driven category — what matters most is a track record of building brands people remember, but the context helps.
  • Fluency in Spanish and/or Portuguese, given Clara's footprint across MX, BR, CO, and AR.
  • Experience working directly with founders or C-level on brand-defining moments.
  • Startup or small-team experience where you owned something end to end, from idea to production.

  • Flexible vacation and hybrid work model focused on results
Things to weigh
