We build AI voice agents for small and medium-sized businesses so they never miss a call again and can focus on the work they actually love.
Our AI handles every call automatically. But voice is just the beginning. Our vision: to become the fully automated AI suite for SMBs
We live ownership. You're end-to-end responsible for your projects and tasks. No politics, few meetings, direct feedback. At fonio you build alongside the smartest and most ambitious people in the scene.
Become part of one of the fastest-growing startups in Europe!
You own how fonio looks and sounds to the outside world. From our website to paid ads to our visual brand language — you set the standard and have the final say. You lead a small, high-impact creative team (Creative Strategist, Static Ads Designer, UI/UX Designer) and work closely with our Head of Content: she owns owned/organic, you own brand, paid, and web. We're B2B but want to build like a consumer brand — that's where you come in.
You own fonio's entire visual and creative outward presence: brand, website, paid ads
You lead and grow a three-person creative team — setting direction and quality without micromanaging
You give final sign-off on creative output and hold a consistent standard across all channels
You stay hands-on enough to challenge concepts yourself and lead by example on quality
You report directly to our Director of Growth
Several years of experience as a Creative Director, Art Director, or in a comparable leadership role - ideally in a performance/brand environment
You've demonstrably built or sharpened brands and can show it through work, not just words
You enjoy leading but see yourself as an enabler, not a controller
You think brand and performance together - beautiful creative that doesn't convert isn't enough for you
