Senior Creative
Job Overview
We’re on the hunt for an experienced and inspiring Senior Creative, a creative problem solver who is experienced in (and obsessed with) helping brands connect to consumers through influencers and creators.
They’ll be a key senior member of the team, responsible for developing ideas for creative briefs, working alongside and inspiring other team members and mentoring junior members of the team too.
We need someone who’s self-motivated & proactive. Someone who has been consistently providing original solutions to problems they’ve been given, and to problems they’ve proactively uncovered too.
This person will understand what consumers see as great content, which creators are currently making it, what it takes to develop it, and how brands can play a part in it.
They’ll understand how to develop ideas that are designed to get the best out of creators - giving enough direction to inspire, but leaving enough space for them to add their authentic creative spark too.
We’re looking for someone who is unsettled, in that they are in constant pursuit of better. They believe what has been done before is not ‘Best Practice’ but ‘Best so far’.
We want to see an obsession with creators, social media and the value they can offer to brands, but we’d also love to see an understanding of what ‘good’ looks like in other brand marketing channels too.
