Remote
Creative Lead
About this role
ABOUT PRIMER Primer is a growing network of K–8 schools restoring the timeless foundations of American education. Inspired by the original teaching primers that shaped a nation of readers, thinkers, and builders, our schools begin with what has always worked, and build for what lies ahead. Close-knit learning environments. Skilled educators. A culture that takes kids seriously as learners and leaders. Primers shaped the first 200 years of American children.
Primer will ready them for the next. We hear from parents, educators, legislators, and community leaders every day about the lives we’re changing — from families who felt stuck in the traditional system and now see their child thriving at Primer, to parents who “feel like they have their child back” after a few months at Primer. Your job is to bring Primer’s story to life for families across every state, campus, and event.
You’ll own the standards that keep our creative consistent and build the production engine that makes high-quality, locally relevant assets available fast. You’ll work within Primer’s established brand, making one brand feel personal in dozens of communities, soon hundreds. This is a hands-on role. You’ll design, review, and ship work yourself while building the templates, workflows, and AI-powered tools that help us scale.
Teams will count on you as a creative partner with a sharp eye for detail, clear judgment on what’s ready to ship, and the resourcefulness to deliver as demand grows. Key Responsibilities - Own and uphold Primer’s established brand guidelines, ensuring every asset meets our standards while reflecting state, campus, and event-specific needs. - Build and run a creative production program that delivers high volumes of customized, high-quality assets with fast, predictable turnaround times.
- Develop reusable templates, event kits, and asset libraries that make localized production efficient and maintain brand consistency. - Partner with Growth, Admissions, and campus teams to translate business needs into clear creative briefs, priorities, and deliverables. - Own the workflow from intake through delivery, establishing clear SLAs, approval processes, and quality checks. - Serve as the final creative reviewer, ensuring assets are accurate, polished, on-brand, and ready to publish or print.
