A2 Learning - Creative Lead - Startup

THE COMPANY:

We are building India's first dedicated institution for finance. Not a general management school with a finance elective, but a purpose-built institution designed for the top tier of talent in banking, financial services, and investing. The curriculum is being co-created with industry leaders, authored by practitioners, and reviewed by an academic council drawn from leading Indian and global institutions. The institution is currently being built in Mumbai, with the inaugural cohort expected in 2027. This is a rare opportunity to help shape an institution from the ground up while many of its defining decisions are still being made.

THE ROLE:

We're looking for a Creative Lead to build and champion the brand from the ground up, shaping how this institution communicates for the next decade. The founding story is ambitious and urgent by design that's how institutions get built. Your job is to give that ambition a lasting voice among students, faculty, and industry leaders who trust it with their careers and reputations.

WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO:

- Define and write the institution's core voice via website copy, admissions materials, or faculty and leadership communications.

- Design the visual language that carries that voice, across digital assets, print collateral, and event branding.

- Translate founder and leadership input decks, memos, conversations into output that carries the same conviction with institutional composure.

- Build brand systems and guidelines a small team can execute against consistently as the institution scales.

- Work directly with founders and academic leadership on positioning and messaging.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

- 6-9 years spanning content/copy and design, with a track record of personally making things, end to end.

- Experience in categories where brand carries trust higher education, professional services, publishing, policy or think-tanks.

- A portfolio showing integrated work.

- Strong long-form, short form and good editorial writing ability.
