Job Description:

Team Leila Creative Director

The Hormozi brand has garnered over 8 Million organic followers across Alex and Leila Hormozis platforms in barely 3 years. To continue this lightning fast growth we are looking for a Creative Director for Leila Hormozi’s brand to be the one to spearhead continued and future growth. This position is for someone looking to create a brand unlike any mainstream that currently exists - bridging the gap between leadership education and women in business, as well as personal content.

This is not for the faint of heart, we are looking for someone ready for the challenge who sees this as a career making opportunity, not only to direct the brand, but to work side by side with Leila in making this vision a reality. You need to have a ‘jack of all trades’ skill set of understanding brand, media, all social media platforms, how to work with a brand as well as lead a team of highly motivated individuals to make it come to life.

What makes Acquisition.com so different? For one, the founders of this company, Alex and Leila Hormozi, are successful entrepreneurs themselves. The Hormozis have built and sold multiple companies over the years and have a keen understanding of what it takes to dramatically scale small businesses.

Acquisition.com is an investment firm with the mission of making real business education accessible to everyone. Most entrepreneurs lack the WHO, the WHAT, and the HOW to SCALE. At acquisition.com we recruit the who, give them the what, and show them the how. And once an entrepreneur has all three, their business scales.
