Creative Direction : Customers aren’t thinking about “marketing teams” when they interact with our brands. You have a vision for how every customer touchpoint is evolving (from a 30-second spot to a checkout flow) and can steer the work that direction.

Presentations : Confidently and persuasively presenting creative concepts to secure buy-in (Required)

You work independently and proactively. You can take a brief (or more often, a conversation) and turn it into an idea. You know when to get others involved and how to work with peers inside and outside Creative. (Required)
