Job Description – Creative Director

Position Title : Creative Director (Worship, Production & Communications)

Reports To : Lead Pastor

Department : Creative Media & Communications

Direct Reports : Storytelling Lead, Marketing Lead, Communications Lead, Production Lead, Worship & Arts Leaders

FLSA Status : Exempt

Position Summary

The Creative Director provides strategic and spiritual leadership for all creative expressions at Eastern Star Church. This role oversees the Worship & Arts ministry (including Sunday services, choirs, bands, praise teams, and dance), Production (storytelling, livestreaming, and visual media), and Communications (website, app, social media, and all internal / external messaging).

This position ensures that every expression—on stage, on screen, and online—reflects the heart of the gospel and the excellence of the church’s mission. The Creative Director collaborates closely with the Lead Pastor to shape worship experiences, creative themes, sermon series direction, and the church’s overall communication and brand strategy.

Key Responsibilities

Worship & Arts (High-Level Oversight)

The Creative Director oversees worship expression, not daily rehearsals or logistics.

  • Lead and coordinate the creative direction of weekly worship services in partnership with Worship & Arts leaders.
  • Provide senior oversight for choirs, bands, praise teams, musicians, and dance ministry leaders.
  • Approve high-level service flow, themes, and creative elements while leaders execute the operational details.
  • Cultivate a culture of spiritual integrity, collaboration, and artistic excellence across all worship teams.
  • Ensure worship environments reflect theological alignment, excellence, and creativity.

Production (High-Level Direction)

The Creative Director sets creative and storytelling direction, while production leaders run daily operations.

  • Provide oversight to video, audio, lighting, stage, and livestream teams responsible for in-service production and special events.
  • Approve storytelling concepts such as testimonies, docuseries, interviews, and event recap direction.
  • Ensure quality, consistency, and brand alignment across all visual media—from lighting design to final video edits.
  • Review major production plans, creative concepts, and worship elements; delegate execution to Production Leads.

    • Marketing, Communications & Digital Strategy (Strategic Leadership)

    The Creative Director guides the brand and messaging; the Communications and Marketing teams execute daily content.

  • Direct ESC’s communication and digital strategy to ensure clear, compelling, and gospel-centered messaging across all platforms.
  • Oversee website, church app, livestream platforms, and digital communications for accuracy, engagement, and visual quality.
  • Guide social media strategy, content calendars, and major campaigns aligning with church initiatives and engage the broader community.
  • Approve major communication plans and creative campaigns; delegate daily posting and content management to Communications Lead.
  • Strengthen internal communications and cross-department collaboration.

    • Creative Strategy & Collaboration

  • Build and lead a multidisciplinary creative team, providing direction, mentorship, and accountability.
  • Partner with the Lead Pastor to creatively shape sermon series, worship experiences, and church-wide initiatives.
  • Provide creative leadership for events, campaigns, and ministry needs across multiple campuses.
  • Review and approve major creative concepts before production teams execute them.
  • Manage timelines, workflows, and creative project execution from concept to completion.
  • Ensure that all creative work is on mission, on brand, and on schedule.

    • Leadership, Culture, & Team Development

  • Build and lead a multidisciplinary creative team through direction, mentorship, professional development, and accountability.
  • Lead in a way that inspires creativity, unity, and excellence across Worship, Production, Storytelling, Marketing, and Communications.
  • Guide team leads in managing their teams’ day-to-day responsibilities.
  • Foster a culture that is innovative, collaborative, spiritually grounded, and mission-driven.

    • Qualifications

  • Proven experience in senior-level creative leadership within a church, media, production, or communications environment.
  • Strong understanding of worship culture, media production, visual storytelling, and digital communication.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead leaders—providing direction, oversight, and alignment rather than hands-on execution.
  • Strong working knowledge of creative processes : livestreaming, storytelling, branding, design, digital tools, and communications.
  • Exceptional collaboration, communication, and team leadership skills.
  • Deep commitment to Christ and alignment with Eastern Star Church’s mission, values, and theology.

    • Work Environment

  • High-level leadership role that spans worship, production, communications, and digital environments.
  • Requires availability for evenings, weekends, and major church events.
  • Fast-paced, collaborative, and mission-driven.

    • Requirements :
