About the Role

You will partner with an Associate Creative Director on the art side and report into a Creative Director, running the day-to-day of creative projects from brief to final deliverable. You will be hands-on in writing lines, shaping scripts, and refining creative output, leading by example to set the standard for junior creatives.

Responsibilities

  • Hands-on development of the work alongside your team, not just oversight of it
  • Day-to-day leadership of writers across every level, senior to junior
  • Partnership with your art-side ACD to keep ideas and execution moving together
  • Manage the gap between a CD's vision and what actually gets made
  • Client presentations, alongside your CD and on your own when it's called for
  • Write and lead the copy on your work, not just direct someone else's
  • Set the voice and standard for writers below you, by doing the work in front of them
  • Present your own thinking directly to clients and hold the room when it's challenged
  • Push back on feedback that would flatten the idea, and know the difference between that and feedback that makes it better
  • Partner tightly with an art-side ACD so copy and concept move as one thing, not two

Requirements

  • At least 8 years of experience in top agencies making impactful work
  • Agency candidates making work that is recognized and respected
  • Experience running multiple clients simultaneously
  • Experience working at a fast-paced pitch cadence
  • A portfolio with real, produced work across film, OOH, experiences, social, and digital
  • Direct, hands-on writing experience
  • Experience leading and teaching creatives across seniority levels by example
  • Comfort presenting to clients and holding your own in the room
  • Experience on set, ensuring the creative plan is followed
  • An obsession with craft and attention to detail
