Art Director (6 month FTC)

At Beauty Pie, we don’t believe that the very best beauty products should be full of the excessive hidden markups that other luxury brands charge. We collaborate with the world’s leading labs so you can get direct access to our exceptional collection of extraordinary skincare, makeup and more – minus the unfair extra costs. If you’d like to join us for the beauty revolution, here’s what you need to know.

We’re looking for an experienced and conceptually strong Art Director to join us on a 6m FTC, leading visual development across all creative touchpoints.

From campaign and eCommerce to social content, you’ll craft compelling visuals that build brand love, drive performance, and push creative boundaries. Working under the guidance of the Senior Art Director, you’ll take ownership of creative projects—from early ideation through to flawless execution—across digital, print, and social platforms.

• Maintain and evolve our visual identity to ensure a consistent brand look and feel across all platforms while pushing creative boundaries and testing new ideas
• Collaborate closely with our Ecommerce, Social Media, Acquisition, Lifecycle Marketing and Communications teams to balance brand-building with performance goals
• Manage junior art directors and content creators, giving clear feedback and elevating the overall standard of creative
• Partner with production leads to ensure timely, high-quality execution of projects
• Act as a brand guardian, ensuring that every piece of creative that goes out the door is consistently, distinctively and identifiably Beauty Pie

Qualifications

• Prior experience in a creative role, ideally in beauty, wellness, or fashion
• Excellent portfolio showcasing refined taste and multi-channel work
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, Capture One (and Figma preferred) and expert in working with motion and video teams.
• Agile, organised, and able to thrive in a fast-paced environment

What makes someone ‘Beauty Pie’?

• Bring your ‘A’ game: We bring a growth mindset as we disrupt the beauty industry. Showing up at our best, and never settling for average.

• Bias for action: Speed matters. We act with urgency, make smart choices and learn through doing – because momentum drives progress
• Be customer obsessed: Our decisions begin and end with the customer in mind. We earn trust by delivering amazing quality and incredible value with an experience that consistently exceeds expectations.
• It’s all for one (& one for all): We’re better together. Trust, integrity and collaboration are how we build a culture where everyone grows, contributes and thrives—individually and collectively.
