    Description

    Device Brand Studio, an internal agency within the Devices group at Amazon, is seeking an experienced Head of GTM Creative to lead how our brands come to market, across launch campaigns, product reveals, and the full go-to-market moment, for Amazon Devices. This role owns creative direction for launch storytelling and campaign execution across large programs and initiatives, including new-to-world and new-to-Amazon launches.

    The ideal candidate has deep experience translating brand and product strategy into launch creative, from campaign platforms and key art to product storytelling across owned, earned, and retail channels, and knows how to make a launch feel coherent whether a customer encounters it in a hero video, a detail page, a store, or a press moment. You will guide and manage a creative team of creative directors and brand designers in developing integrated launch campaigns, then iterate as you factor in customer, business, and operational requirements. You will pitch launch platforms and creative strategies, not singular executions, to stakeholders, and set the broader team up to execute against a clear point of view. You should have deep knowledge of brand guidelines, product marketing, and multi-channel campaign development at a top consumer-facing brand like Amazon, and be comfortable engaging entry-level through executive stakeholders.

    Because launches span every channel and compress into tight windows, you should have excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills. You will partner closely with product marketing, GTM, PR and comms, media, retail, and brand strategy to deliver launches that hold together across every touchpoint a customer encounters, from a first-look teaser to a store end cap.

    This role is for a highly capable creative lead with extensive campaign and product launch background, who can direct internal and external creative resources and present with composure to senior executives.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Own creative direction for GTM launch campaigns across large Amazon Devices programs, from concept through in-market execution
    • Set the creative strategy for how new products come to market, across launch platforms, key art, product films, owned channels, and retail moments
    • Partner with product marketing and GTM to intake business and messaging requirements and translate them into creative that performs
    • Build trust, respect, and credibility with stakeholders, management peers, direct reports, and executives
    • Advocate for the customer through the launch narrative and integrate research and insights into the creative process
    • Shape a world-class internal team of creatives, developing the team through reviews, coaching, and functional skills growth
    • Mentor an effective team of campaign, brand, and content designers
    • Extend the reach of the team by working with other internal and external creative, agency, and production teams as a stakeholder and approver

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
