JOB DESCRIPTION

Fox News Media seeks a Creative Director to lead marketing design across core brands – Fox Nation, Fox News Channel, Fox Business Network, and Fox Weather.

The Creative Director will act as a leader and mentor to staff. Important components of the role are continuing to evolve the brands, introducing new best practices, and inspiring current and future designers to do great work. The candidate should also be a good ambassador and administrative leader, prepared to work across departments and brands to establish best new practices, laying the groundwork for future workflow.

This is a new position within the Creative Marketing team. This position will work in tandem with the ''on-air'' half of the Creative Market team as well as many other adjacent departments.
