POSITION OVERVIEW:

The Creative Strategy Group at Nestlé Health Science serves as the bridge between Marketing and Creative, translating business priorities and consumer insights into impactful brand concepts and ideas. In this role, you’ll turn strategy into powerful concepts and express them through clear, compelling visual design.

We are hiring a design-focused, hybrid creative/strategy position with ownership of both big, conceptual ideas and execution, working closely with the Brand Strategist while operating with a high degree of independence.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Serve as a strategic creative partner to brand and marketing teams, helping shape brand and campaign direction and creative approach early in the planning process.
• Work across a portfolio of brands simultaneously, developing a deep understanding of multiple brand strategies, audiences, and product portfolios to inform creative development and execution.
• Lead the development of brand playbooks, creative frameworks, and visual systems that enable full-funnel campaigns.
• Create design deliverables such as:
• Brand playbooks and visual language.
• Campaign concepts and key visuals.
• Presentation decks, toolkits, and templates for cross-functional teams.
• Oversee and ensure brand consistency across all written outputs while allowing flexibility for different channels.
• Ability to work independently and manage your own projects and timelines.
• Collaborate with strategy, copywriting, marketers, and channel owners to ensure creative ideas scale.
• Iterate based on feedback and performance insights while protecting the core creative idea.
• Balance strong creative thinking with strategic rigor and business context, ensuring ideas ladder up to brand and commercial priorities.

EXPERIENCE AND EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS:

• At least 3 to 5 years of previous experience in a creative strategy, brand design, or hybrid creative role.
• High School Diploma Required. Bachelor’s Degree or Associate’s Degree would be positive.
• Strong design portfolio demonstrating strategic thinking, not just execution.
• Experience developing brand systems or playbooks that others can implement.
• Ability to connect business objectives to visual ideas in a clear, compelling way.
• Comfortable working autonomously and taking ownership of outcomes.
• Experience working with (or as) strategists and understanding how strategy informs creative.
• Clear communicator who can explain the “why” behind design decisions.
• Experience in brand, campaign, or integrated marketing environments is positive.
• Familiarity with full-funnel thinking (from awareness to conversion) is desired.
• Prior experience in a small or fast-moving team where accountability mattered is nice to have.
