Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.
The Community You Will Join

As Creative Lead, Photo, you'll sit at the intersection of brand and craft, partnering closely with cross-functional teams including Marketing, Product, and external agencies to bring Airbnb's visual identity to life at a global scale.

You will be the creative force that elevates the quality and consistency of photo-driven storytelling across all channels and touchpoints. Success in this role means delivering a cohesive, culturally resonant visual language that measurably strengthens brand perception and supports business outcomes across campaigns, product launches, and beyond.
