Executive Design Director (Brand & Product)

Our leadership team primarily collaborates during PST business hours, while we also have designers in Europe. This role is ideally based in EST to ensure overlap across our time zones. Candidates comfortable working on an EST schedule are encouraged to apply. Companies ready to change the world come to Metalab to create products that improve lives, reshape markets, and shift culture. As Executive Design Director, you'll shape the future of creative at the intersection of brand, experience and product at Metalab. You'll define what craft excellence looks like across the organization, lead with strategic vision, and ensure brand and product design remain a driving force in our work, culture, and growth. You'll coach and elevate other leaders, steward our approach to craft, and guide both clients and internal teams through high-impact, high-visibility brand and product design engagements—while also contributing hands-on at a world-class level.
