Job description

THE ROLE

We are looking for a seasoned Creative Director in search of an opportunity to produce the best work of their careers while helping creative teams grow through strong management and development. A love of sport is preferred.

WE ARE

A creative agency powered by social connections. That means we thrive on what's trending and creating campaigns that get people buzzing. We call it "Ideas Worth Talking About," and we're proud to have played a part in some of the most culturally relevant campaigns of the decade for brands like McDonald's, Adidas, Universal Studios, and YouTube.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT HERE

  • We like to laugh, we live for celeb gossip and we're great on AUX.
  • Our passport program lets you explore and work from one of our 18 other offices worldwide, including Paris, Singapore, Madrid, Dubai, London and more!
  • You best believe we know how to celebrate our wins. And our losses (it's how we learn).
  • From carbon offsets to community kitchens, we're passionate about making a difference.
  • Did we say snacks? Because we have great snacks. (Shoutout to Sheila who keeps the kitchen stocked.)

YOU ARE

  • A person who thrives in a fast-paced environment, responding quickly and proactively
  • Not interested in just following trends - you want to create them
  • A self-starter, who'll take ideas from concept to execution, navigating feedback like a pro
  • What matters is your deep understanding of what resonates with social audiences. This role is energetic, innovative and forward-thinking. Alongside engaging with communities, you'll guide brands by staying ahead of social trends and cultural moments. In return, you'll join a global agency dedicated to generating buzzworthy ideas for some of the world's leading brands.

    What You'll Do

  • Help build an efficient, cohesive team via coaching, supervising, and proactive feedback
  • Lead and manage teams of creatives
  • Prioritize and delegate work to maintain timelines and budgets while delivering best-in-class work
  • Help evaluate, refine, and ultimately approve internal creative briefs
  • Conceptualize new platform, campaign on content ideas based on strategic insights
  • Ideate executional approaches inspired by innovations and contemporary marketing trends
  • Give clear and actionable feedback to team members based on a deep understanding of their skill sets and creative tools
  • Get hands-dirty with executional elements as needed
  • Own and manage the building of pitch and concept decks from start-to-finish, including write-ups, references and custom visual comps
  • Present to large groups of people with passion and poise
  • Clearly and deftly communicate concepts to clients, selling in the strongest ideas
  • Requirements For This Role

  • You have a proven track record of creating breakthrough social first content.
  • You speak culture. You know who, where, when, and why in film, music, design, streetwear, celebrity, sport, trends. Your friends turn to you to explain what's happening on TikTok, Instagram, and other social media.
  • You understand how to be authentically native on social platforms via short-form video, motion graphics, trending sounds, etc.
  • You are cool and focused under pressure and in the face of a high volume of deliverables
  • You are a strong communicator who treats co-workers and clients with empathy and respect
  • JOIN US
