Job Description

<p>Since we opened our doors in 2009, the world of commerce has evolved immensely, and so has Square. After enabling anyone to take payments and never miss a sale, we saw sellers stymied by disparate, outmoded products and tools that wouldn't work together.</p> <p>So we expanded into software and started building integrated, omnichannel solutions – to help sellers sell online, manage inventory, offer buy now, pay later functionality, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. Across it all, we've embedded financial services tools at the point of sale, so merchants can access a business loan and manage their cash flow in one place. Afterpay furthers our goal to provide omnichannel tools that unlock meaningful value and growth, enabling sellers to capture the next generation shopper, increase order sizes, and compete at a larger scale.</p> <p>Today, we are a partner to sellers of all sizes – large, enterprise-scale businesses with complex operations, sellers just starting, as well as merchants who began selling with Square and have grown larger over time. As our sellers grow, so do our solutions. There is a massive opportunity in front of us. We're building a significant, meaningful, and lasting business, and we are helping sellers worldwide do the same.</p> <p><strong>The Role</strong></p> <p>Square is looking for an Creative Director, Campaigns (IC) to join our London-based creative team and lead the development of brand and marketing campaigns across the UK, France, and Spain. This is a senior individual contributor role with a strong foundation in art direction, visual systems, and concept-led design. While the role is not a writing position, it requires the ability to partner closely with writers, oversee copy development, and ensure language, tone, and messaging feel culturally fluent to the market. Leadership in this role comes through creative vision, strategic thinking, and hands-on creative direction rather than direct people management.</p> <p>Reporting to the Creative Director, EU/UK, and partnering closely with the Creative Director for the market, you'll help define and deliver integrated campaigns that tell Square's story and show merchants how they can run and grow their businesses with Square.</p> <p>In this role, you'll originate and drive concept-led creative that can scale globally while resonating locally. You'll work across channels including brand and product marketing campaigns, web, social, email, experiential, broadcast, and print—guiding work from early strategy and concept through execution, and setting a high creative bar through the strength of your ideas and craft.</p> <p>Creative Directors (IC) at Square are senior creative leaders within multidisciplinary teams of designers, writers, producers, and program managers. You'll collaborate closely with cross-functional partners including Strategy, Brand and Product Marketing, Regional Marketing, Video, Photo, Production Design, and Product Design, bringing clarity, taste, and momentum to complex creative problems.</p> <p>You will contribute to some of Square's most visible work in the UK and EU, helping grow brand awareness and preference while supporting sellers across diverse markets. Our team exists to tell the best possible stories about Square's brand, products, and ecosystem—so our sellers feel confident, inspired, and empowered to succeed.</p> <p>Work from anywhere: This role can be performed from any location within the GMT timezone.</p> <p><strong>You Will</strong></p> <ul> <li>Lead the creative development of integrated campaigns across the UK, France, and Spain as a senior individual contributor, with a primary emphasis on art direction and visual storytelling</li> <li>Partner closely with writers and the market Creative Director to shape campaign ideas, narrative structure, and tone</li> <li>Act as a creative steward for regional voice and tone, ensuring copy feels authentic and culturally resonant</li> <li>Provide cle ...
