We are seeking a Director for the launch of our AI-powered Digital Design Agency, Infinity Design.

In this role, you will own the machine of the studio—pipeline, scoping, delivery, profitability, and growth. You set goals, orchestrate people and process, maintain clear visibility in our tools, and keep work on time, on budget, and at a premium standard. You’ll also sell: qualify leads, shape proposals, and close retainers/projects.

• Price work for margin; structure retainers; model resourcing and capacity.
• Forecast revenue and own quarterly targets
  
  

Delivery & operations

• Maintain end-to-end visibility across projects in Jira/Asana; ensure tickets, scopes, and dates are correct.
• Guardrails on scope: track hours, change requests, and enforce edit limits; escalate and renegotiate as needed.
• Sequence work to avoid bottlenecks; keep WIP flowing; unblock teams fast.
• Resource planning: staff projects, manage partners/freelancers, and keep utilisation healthy.
  
  

Client leadership

• Set objectives and success metrics per engagement; run key status calls; ensure expectations are managed.

• Coach PMs/Coordinators; partner with the Lead Designer on resourcing and quality gates.
• Codify playbooks, templates, and dashboards for repeatability and scale.
  
  

Qualifications

• 6–10+ years in digital/brand/creative environments with director-level ownership (operations, delivery, or account/growth).
• Proven record selling and delivering projects/retainers profitably.
• Tool literacy: Jira/Asana, Figma (read/comment), Adobe Suite (familiarity), Google Workspace, Notion, CRM.
• Financial fluency: pricing, margin, utilisation, capacity planning, forecasting.
• Excellent stakeholder management and crisp written/spoken communication.
• Bias to ship—you balance quality with velocity and protect the schedule.
  
  

Nice to have
