Navigate ambiguity, adapt to shifting priorities, and bring proactive solutions to creative and production challenges.
Contribute to a collaborative team culture with curiosity, kindness, and accountability.
What You Bring

Agency experience with a track record on high-volume, high-visibility accounts.
On-set and content production experience (domestic or global), including work with video directors, editors, and producers.
Strong client presentation and communication skills; ability to present ideas, incorporate feedback, and advocate for great creative.
Excellent design sensibility and a strategic eye for layout, typography, motion, and branding.
Proactive, collaborative mindset; energized to brainstorm, support teammates with generosity and respect.
A creative portfolio showing design range across digital and video and the ability to turn strategy into scroll-stopping work.
You’ll Thrive If
You enjoy balancing creative concepting with tactical execution.
You have a passion for video and understanding of content production workflows.
You’re comfortable working directly with clients and stakeholders while taking direction from an ACD or CD.
You can juggle multiple projects with strong attention to detail and deadlines.
You value feedback, mentorship, and continuous improvement for yourself and others.
This is an opportunity to shape creative for a bold, fast-moving client while growing your influence as a creative leader. We’d love to hear from you if you’re ready to make an impact.
