If you could choose between Creative Director and Head Of Brand Design as your title (without impact on job description), which one would you pick and why?

(For the record I'd choose creative director as it seems a bit more ideas based/campaign/multi discipline)

I’d normally choose CD but the Head of BS (I mean BD) sometimes gets paid a lot more.

i guess it depends on whether or not you want to be perceived more as an ideas person or a craft person in the long run

for some reason head of design seems like it would fare better in the tech space while creative director seems more for marketing/adv

Head of creative to compromise?

I feel that Head of Design would open the door to more design gigs. And Creative Director would open the door to more advertising gigs. Do you belong more in the design career track or concepts/art direction/ads?

Def CD!

Unfortunately, at my place, the HBD is the last word on creative decisions despite never having been a creative.

I’d pick CD because it’s more versatile for your resume versus head of brand design which alludes to a more specific set of duties

CD for sure.

Head of creative / brand = CCO.
