Now Hiring: Creative Director

This posting is not tied to a current open role, but is an opportunity to join our talent pool for future positions. By applying, you’ll be considered as opportunities that align with your experience that become available.

 

We are makers. We create because we are curious, and we believe that the best way to prove an idea works is to make it real.

As a Creative Director, you are the creative engine of our team. You are a versatile, dynamic leader capable of dropping into any brief, product area, or medium and instantly elevating the output. You are not just a delegator; you are a visionary and a practitioner who understands that the best way to lead a team of makers is to be one yourself.

Your mandate is to establish a compelling creative vision, guide your team through the friction of development, and deliver executions that meet our uncompromising standards for iconic work—clear, human, and useful. You must possess a world-class sense of taste and a deep fluency in modern, tech-enabled creativity. In this era of our agency, you will champion the everyday use of AI not as a novelty, but as a fundamental tool to unlock new creative possibilities, iterate faster, and push the boundaries of what we can make.

Key Responsibilities

Visionary Leadership & Uncompromising Taste

• Set the Standard: Establish and guide the creative vision for global campaigns, platforms, and digital experiences from inception to final delivery.
• The Final Arbiter: Act as the ultimate quality control for aesthetic and strategic excellence. You must possess an impeccable sense of taste, ensuring all work reflects a premium, modern visual and narrative language.
• Storytell with Clarity: Serve as the primary storyteller for your projects. You must be able to compel a room, translating complex business problems into simple, powerful creative solutions for clients and internal teams alike.

The "Hands-On" Maker Mindset

• Lead by Doing: You are a leader who still makes. You must be willing to open a design file, rewrite a script, or refine a prompt. You do not just critique the work; you actively participate in its elevation.
• Tech-Enabled Craft: Bridge the gap between big ideas and technological execution. You must understand how to leverage modern platforms, digital ecosystems, and emerging tech to prove your ideas work in the real world.

AI as a Daily Unlock

• Everyday Innovation: Embed Artificial Intelligence into the daily rhythm of your team. You will utilize GenAI tools (for ideation, storyboarding, asset generation, and rapid prototyping) to bypass the blank page and accelerate the path to "perfect."
• Teacher of Curiosity: Push your team to experiment with new ways of making. You are responsible for identifying friction in the creative process and leveraging technology to solve it.

Team Management & Mentorship

• Manage the Makers: Direct, mentor, and inspire a multi-disciplinary team of art directors, copywriters, designers, and creative technologists.
• Foster Culture: Cultivate an environment where high-end craft meets high-speed innovation. Protect your team's time and energy, giving them the space to fail, learn, and ultimately produce the best work of their careers.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Collaborate deeply with Strategy, Production, and Account leads. You understand that brilliant creative is only successful if it is strategically sound and commercially viable.

Qualifications

• Experience: 10+ years of progressive creative experience in a top-tier agency or tech-forward environment, with at least 3+ years in a Creative Director role.
• Versatile Excellence: A world-class portfolio that proves you are a hybrid thinker. We want to see a mix of high-level brand campaigns, deep digital experiences, and tech-driven innovation.
• AI Fluency: Demonstrated integration of GenAI tools in your daily workflow. You must be able to speak intelligently about how AI is reshaping the creative process.
• Executive Presence: Proven ability to command a room, manage executive client relationships, and successfully pitch brave work.
• Soft Skills: High EQ, profound patience, resilience, and meticulous attention to detail. You must check your ego at the door and focus entirely on the work.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

• Craft Quality: Consistently delivering iconic work that pushes the brand's creative boundaries forward and sets an industry benchmark.
• AI Adoption: Measurable integration of AI tools within your team’s workflow, resulting in faster iteration and higher-quality outputs.
• Client Trust: Serving as a requested, trusted creative partner to senior stakeholders across various product areas.
• Team Health: Cultivating a high-performing team with limited attrition and a clear track record of internal promotion and growth.
