Summary

This is not just a one-time shoot role. We are looking for someone who can grow with the brand and help build its creative foundation from the early stage. About the Brand We are a premium bedding brand creating high-quality products around rest, comfort, softness, and intentional living. Our visual direction is calm, refined, nature-led, editorial, and emotionally rich. We want the brand to feel elevated but real — quiet luxury, not loud luxury. Think natural light, beautiful landscapes, soft textures, stillness, slow mornings, restful spaces, and high-end lifestyle imagery that makes bedding feel aspirational, fresh, and deeply comforting.

Work Structure This is a full-time role. Since the brand is currently in its pre-launch phase, the role may begin remotely / work-from-home. However, the Creative Director should be open to travelling for key campaign shoots and eventually working closely with the team as the brand grows.
