Art Director

About mBIOTA Labs

mBIOTA Labs is a clinically backed, women-owned and led medical nutrition startup on a mission to transform how people think about - and treat - digestive health. Our multi-brand portfolio offers therapeutic, nutrition-based solutions that are rooted in science, shaped by patient needs, and made to fit into real lives.

At mBIOTA, we believe that innovation doesn't happen behind closed doors. It happens when agile, driven, and thoughtful people come together and build something better - something that lasts.

Our flagship product,

mBIOTA Elemental

, is a clinically validated therapeutic for GI disorders - but we don't market like a pharmaceutical company, and we don't look like a typical supplement brand. Instead, we prioritize elegant storytelling, sophisticated design, and radical empathy for our customers.

We're scaling quickly and redefining what modern clinical wellness looks like - and we're looking for an

Art Director

to help lead that visual evolution.

The Opportunity

We're seeking a hands-on, production-driven Art Director

to help define and elevate the visual language of mBIOTA Labs across digital, social, web, retail, and experiential touchpoints.

This role will be foundational - creating the systems, standards, and assets that bring design excellence and cohesion to a growing, multi-brand ecosystem. You'll work across both our rebrand and a new consumer launch, shaping everything from web visuals to in-store experiences.

You'll collaborate closely with the VP of Marketing, Brand Marketing Manager, and Social Media Lead - driving the creative output that fuels our storytelling, campaigns, partnerships, and activations. This is a roll-up-your-sleeves creative role for someone who can think conceptually

and

execute flawlessly - turning ideas into tangible, elevated design that moves seamlessly between digital and physical worlds.
