Director of Art & Design
Acquisition.comAbout the role
About ACQ Media:
ACQ Media is the in-house media engine behind Acquisition.com and its portfolio of brands led by Alex Hormozi, Leila Hormozi, and Sharran Srivatsaa.
Our mission is to build the leading business media organization in the world by 2030.
We produce high-performance long-form series, podcasts, and daily social content that reach millions of people around the globe. Our content is not vanity media, it is designed to drive measurable reach, deepen brand influence, and create downstream business impact across the entire Acquisition.com ecosystem.
We operate like a studio, not a startup content team. That means structured workflows, batch production, clear performance metrics, and an aggressive commitment to innovation, especially through AI-native production systems.
We are building a repeatable content machine that compounds: more output, higher quality, faster iteration, stronger monetization, and deeper brand equity over time.
If you’re joining ACQ Media, you’re not here to just make content. You’re here to help build a media powerhouse.
Role:
The Director of Art & Design is the senior leader responsible for building and operating the creative design engine across ACQ Media and, over time, the broader company.
This role owns all design output tied to content performance: thumbnails, branding systems, motion graphics, in-episode graphics, pitch decks, title treatments, set visual identity, and any visual assets that materially impact click-through rate, retention, and brand perception.
This is not a “graphic design manager.” This is a creative systems leader who builds a scalable design department that can service multiple brands at once while maintaining high creative standards and fast delivery timelines.
This role must also be AI-native. The design team should leverage AI to increase speed, expand creative range, and reduce production time - without compromising taste, polish, or brand consistency. The expectation is not to “use AI sometimes.” The expectation is to build a department that competes unfairly because it uses AI better than anyone else.
Reports directly to the Chief Media Officer and must be in Las Vegas, NV or willing to relocate.

Graphics, Motion, and In-Episode Design

Build reusable motion systems that can be deployed across multiple shows and formats
Ensure design output improves storytelling and clarity, not just aesthetics
