We’re leading the way in redefining the workwear category. Our mission is to engineer better boots and apparel for our country’s tradesmen and women by working directly with real workers to learn what they actually need to execute their jobs.

The BRUNT team is not only devoted to improving on the old workwear standards, but we’re also creating a community that tradesmen and women can call their own. From our weekly hangouts at the BRUNT Garage, to hosting events across the country, we’re all about getting boots on the ground and building something real with the BRUNT crew.

What You’ll Do:

We are looking for an experienced Director, Creative Services & Production to join our team. This role will support the planning, execution and delivery of creative projects and bridge the gap between creativity and structure, ensuring projects are completed on time, within scope, and aligned with brand and broader marketing objectives. This role is a partner to the Creative Director in team oversight, management and setting performance expectations for the creative function.

How You’ll Do It:

  • Creative Operations & Process Management: Work alongside the Creative Director to develop and manage operational processes that support creative workflows, from concept to delivery. Ensure that creative teams stay on track and that all stakeholders are aligned with deadlines, objectives, and expectations. Flex day-to-day priorities to best accommodate in-the-moment business needs without compromising broader Marketing deadlines.
  • Production Planning: Own pre and post-production planning and process for all video and photography shoots, from location scouting, to talent, product and equipment needs, run of show, and all associated deliverables.

  • Quality Control & Creative Standards: Uphold a rigorous quality control process in partnership with the Creative Director, to ensure that all creative outputs meet the brand’s standards of excellence, from visual design to product experience. Enforce brand consistency across all deliverables.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Be a partner to Marketing Operations and an integral part of real-time creative collaboration that happens across the business.
  • Influence Without Authority: Develop strong relationships across various cross-functional teams, working through influence rather than direct authority to drive outcomes. Ensure all team members are aligned with the overall creative vision while adhering to timelines and processes.
  • Direct Team Management: Partner with the Creative Director to manage performance expectations across the Creative Team, support individual contributor career development, staffing and ongoing capacity planning, team structure and foster a collaborative and growth-oriented environment.

What You Need to Succeed:

  • 7+ years of experience in a fast-paced, creative environment (retail, consumer goods, or similar industries is a must). Experience in operations management or project management in a creative or marketing capacity.
  • Detail-Oriented & Process-Driven: A sharp eye for detail and a methodical approach to problem-solving. Ability to create and maintain organized systems that allow creative teams to excel.
  • Strong Communicator: Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Ability to effectively communicate and influence a wide range of stakeholders, from executive leaders to entry-level employees.
