Direct the full creative output from concept through execution from initial renders to on-site delivery ensuring the promise made in the room matches the reality on the ground
Think across 2D and 3D simultaneously: graphic identity, environmental design, scenic, hospitality, print, digital content, and the considered details that define a luxury experience
Oversee and direct junior creatives and freelance talent on a project-by-project basis, maintaining creative consistency and quality across a globally distributed team
Present ideas with authority and conviction to sophisticated, senior client audiences and build the kind of trust where your creative recommendation carries genuine weight

Actively engage in learning opportunities, from training sessions to thought leadership discussions, to stay informed about industry trends and best practices.
Share knowledge, insights, and experiences with colleagues to strengthen the agency’s collective expertise and create a culture of continuous improvement.
Manage, mentor, coach, hire, recruit and fiercely protect the agency culture that makes Jack a great place to work.

Requirements

8+ years of agency-side experience in experiential marketing or brand experience, with a track record of leading creative on large, complex programs end-to-end
A portfolio that demonstrates genuine creative range including narrative-led experiential work that is as sophisticated in concept as it is in execution
Proven experience directing large, complex programs where the creative vision was maintained from pitch through physical delivery
Deep fluency across both 2D and 3D creative disciplines. You think about environment, material, light, and scenic with the same instinct you bring to graphic design and content
A demonstrable aesthetic sensibility aligned with luxury, contemporary design, or premium lifestyle, evidenced through the work, not just stated
Proven ability to work directly with senior clients as a creative consultant, not just a creative executor
Production literacy. You understand what it costs, what it takes, and what has to give for reality to meet the render
Experience on accounts within luxury hospitality, fashion, financial services, or premium lifestyle brands
Experience directing creative across international programs and managing globally distributed creative teams
Background working on intimate, high-touch events or with high net-worth audiences, where detail, hospitality design, and environmental storytelling are central to the creative brief
