Specifically, we are looking for an Associate Creative Director, who can concept, craft and produce creative ideas across multiple accounts and projects. You must be self-motivated, detailed, and dedicated to bringing in ideas that are earned centric and social by design. You will be client-facing and collaborate with a cross-capability team to sell in work that solves real business problems.
This is not a plug-and-play role. As an earned-first agency, we shape our ideas around the story we want to tell-not the media plan. What we sell in shifts with every brief - one day it's a reactive TikTok idea, the next it's a 360 campaign with PR, influencer, digital, and brand film components. We're looking for sharp thinkers and culture junkies who thrive in creative chaos.
You should be:
- A social-first thinker fluent in TikTok, Instagram, apps we've never heard of, and niche internet subcultures
- Strategic and collaborative, with a proven track record of big ideas and big wins
- Experienced in 360 campaigns with an earned-first mindset
- Obsessed with making smart, standout, award-winning work
- Ego-free, self-starting, and deeply team-oriented
This is a chance to work with a best-in-class creative crew that's picked up wins all the way to Cannes. If you're ready to do the best work of your life-we'd love to meet you.
