Creative Director (Social Content + Strategy)

Austin, TX (West Lake Hills) | On-site, 5 days a week

Join one of the fastest-growing companies in publishing — and help us change lives through books.

About SelfPublishing.com

We’re on a mission to help 100,000 people publish a book by 2035 — impacting over 120 million readers through what we call Leveraged Impact. (Curious? Check out our founder’s TEDx talk here).

At SelfPublishing.com, we empower purpose-driven people to share their stories through books — and we do it through a mix of online education, expert coaching, accountability, and done-for-you publishing services.

We’ve made the INC 5000 list four times (2018, 2019, 2020, and 2022) — and we’re not slowing down anytime soon.

About The Role

We’re looking for a Creative Director with a big imagination, bold ideas, and a love for storytelling that moves people to action.

This is your chance to lead an insanely talented team of designers, strategists, and creators — and build content that not only turns heads but drives real revenue.

If you’ve ever looked at a campaign and thought, “I could make that 10x more engaging”… we want you.

What You’ll Do

Lead the vision. Build and execute a content and social strategy that grows engagement, amplifies our brand, and drives measurable growth.

Oversee all things creative. From Instagram Reels to YouTube series to thought-leadership posts on LinkedIn — you’ll guide the creation of content that inspires and converts.

Empower your team. Lead, mentor, and inspire our creators and designers to do their best work (and have fun doing it).

Measure what matters. Use data and insights to refine strategy, report on wins, and continually raise the creative bar.

Collaborate cross-functionally. Work with marketing, sales, and product to make sure every campaign aligns with our larger business goals.

Stay ahead of trends. You’re the first to spot what’s next — and you know how to adapt it for our brand voice and audience.

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of experience leading content and social media teams (bonus points if you’ve worked in publishing or creative services)
  • A track record of creative campaigns that drove real results — engagement, leads, sales, you name it
  • Strong leadership chops — you love building up your team as much as building out a brand
  • Comfort with design tools (Adobe Creative Suite, Canva, etc.)
  • A love of data and optimization — because creative is only as good as the impact it makes
  • You’re plugged into the latest platform trends and understand what works (and why)
  • Killer communication and storytelling skills — you make words and visuals work for you

What Sets You Apart

You naturally connect content with revenue — your ideas don’t just look great, they work.

Experience in publishing? Huge plus.

You’ve built (or helped build) social brands with real audience growth.

You have a portfolio that showcases your creative range and the results to back it up.

You love shaking things up — bringing innovation and storytelling together to make something unforgettable.

Why You’ll Love It Here

You’ll be joining a passionate, fast-growing team that believes books can change lives — and we’re proving it every day. We work hard, celebrate big wins, and love what we do.

If you’re ready to create, lead, and make an impact — let’s talk.

Apply now to join us in Austin.

Remote applicants, we love you — but this one’s in-person only.
