At Vanta, our mission is to secure the internet and protect consumer data. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease.
In addition to our industry-leading platform, Vanta has differentiated ourselves in the market with a unique and beloved brand identity: from our llama mascot, ilma, to our tongue-in-cheek “Compliance that doesn’t SOC 2 much” billboards. We’re now looking for a Creative Director to elevate Vanta’s brand to the next level, scale our marketing efforts across new channels, and evolve our identity to meet the needs of Vanta’s ever growing customer personas.
In this role, you will oversee both our internal team of Art Directors and Designers and our external network of agencies and freelancers to produce creative that delights our customers, drives demand, and reflects Vanta’s unique brand personality as trusted experts - with a wink.
What you’ll do as Vanta’s Creative Director:
Team leadership: Mentor, empower and develop a talented team of creatives by embodying Vanta’s principles: lead with resilience and win as one team.
Customer centricity: Expand our brand identity to ensure its appeal and relevance for Vanta’s broad set of customer personas - from startup founders to enterprise CISOs. Demonstrate a deep empathy for Vanta’s customers by translating marketing and brand insights into impactful creative that’s appropriate for the audience and channel.
Campaigns: Cultivate and execute novel concepts for brand activations and campaigns across digital, video, social, and experiential. Communicate and present those design concepts and strategies effectively to stakeholders. Work closely with Growth, PMM, Product Design, and Content to scale, measure and iterate campaigns.
Differentiation: Continue to build a differentiated brand that stands apart from competitors and manifests in experiences - from trade show booths to digital activations - that feel uniquely Vanta
Execution: Oversee creative production across multiple projects to deliver on-time and high-quality assets that fuel our business. Manage resourcing across in-house creatives, contractors, and agency partners. Ensure all creative output is cohesive and aligned with the brand’s core objectives, vision, and tone.
How to be successful in this role:
10+ years of Brand Design experience, ideally with several years in-house at a high growth tech company
5+ years of managing and mentoring high-performing creative teams
A killer portfolio of previous work, ideally with strong B2B SaaS examples
Curiosity for or experience in cybersecurity and/or compliance
Track record of building strong cross-functional relationships across UX Design, PMM, Growth Marketing, and more
Experience working with external agencies and contractors (and a rolodex of proven partners)
A balance of creative and operational excellence
What you can expect as a Vantan:
Industry-competitive compensation
100% covered medical, dental, and vision benefits with dependents coverage
16 weeks fully-paid parental Leave for all new parents
Health & wellness and remote workplace stipends
401(k) matching
Flexible work hours and location
Open PTO policy
9 paid holidays in the US
Offices in SF, NYC, Dublin, and Sydney
To provide greater transparency to candidates, we share base pay ranges for all US-based job postings regardless of state. We set standard base pay ranges for all roles based on function, level, and country location, benchmarked against similar-stage growth companies. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including candidate location, skills, depth of work experience, and relevant licenses/credentials, and may vary from the amounts listed below. The salary or OTE range for this position is $200,000 - $235,000. This role may also be eligible for commissions/bonus, equity, medical benefits, 401(k) plan, and other company perk programs.
At Vanta, we are committed to hiring diverse talent of different backgrounds and as such, it is important to us to provide an inclusive work environment for all. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender identity, age, religion, sexual orientation, veteran or disability status, or any other protected class. As an equal opportunity employer, we encourage and welcome people of all backgrounds to apply.
About Vanta
We started in 2018, in the wake of several high-profile data breaches. Online security was only becoming more important, but we knew firsthand how hard it could be for fast-growing companies to invest the time and manpower it takes to build a solid security foundation. Vanta was inspired by a vision to restore trust in internet businesses by enabling companies to improve and prove their security.From our early days automating security monitoring for compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA and ISO 27001 to creating the world's leading Trust Management Platform, our vision remains unchanged.
Now more than ever, making security continuous—not just a point-in-time check— is essential. Thousands of companies rely on Vanta to build, maintain and demonstrate their trust— all in a way that's real-time and transparent.
