In this role, you will:

  • Drive the creative vision and expression of the Converse brand across global e‑commerce experiences
  • Partner with Sr Director, Global Brand Creative and Digital Strategy to make converse.com the pinnacle digital destination for the brand
  • Create and evolve graphic standards and creative direction across all global digital touchpoints
