ABOUT THE ROLE 

• HyperionDev is seeking a dynamic and experienced Head of Studio & Traffic to lead both the creative process and the effective management of our team’s workflows. In this role, you will oversee all creative elements—ranging from visual design and copywriting to campaign production—and ensure their timely delivery across our website, emails, social media, advertising, and printed materials.
• You will be integral to keeping the studio running smoothly, allocating resources, setting priorities, and ensuring that all work is completed on schedule and to the highest quality.

• Your work will support the Product Marketing team by ensuring that our creative outputs resonate with potential HyperionDev students, inspire them to join our bootcamps, and effectively share the success stories of our graduates. The Head of Creative & Traffic will manage the full lifecycle of creative briefs—from conception to execution—and ensure all projects align with HyperionDev’s brand and quality standards, supporting both local and international campaigns.
• We are looking for a highly organised, proactive problem solver with excellent project management skills, who is comfortable juggling multiple priorities and collaborating across various teams. The ideal candidate will thrive in a fast-paced, innovative environment that values both operational excellence and creative exploration.

• Measure and report on the productivity and performance of the creative team, using insights to enhance team effectiveness and the quality of outputs.
• Collaborate closely with designers, copywriters, and other creative professionals to ensure alignment with partner guidelines and creative standards.
• Balance the demands of creative excellence with operational effectiveness, ensuring all deliverables meet brand standards and are produced within set deadlines.
• Maintain and optimize core marketing processes, updating documentation, and ensuring all creative procedures are aligned and streamlined.
• Provide exceptional project management and prioritisation skills to keep projects on track, while introducing software tools to enhance collaboration and productivity.
• Lead ongoing optimisation efforts for our website, paid media, and social media, ensuring that all creative assets are engaging and strategically deployed.
