The kind of Associate Creative Director, Art we're looking for:
You've spent 10+ years in pharmaceutical marketing, at least 5 of them inside an agency and 3 at a leadership level, and you've led brand planning against budgets in the 3M–8M range. You've got a genuine artistic point of view and the ability to get other people, clients included, to see it too.
You know pharma regulation well enough to deliver best-in-class creative inside it rather than around it, and you're ready to lead and mentor an art team while still staying close enough to the work to protect its quality.
What you'll do
Collaborate with departmental leads to build project briefs
Build strong client relationships through creative ideation, recommendations, and hands-on support
Present creative concepts and strategy to clients and cross-functional teams
Bring deep insight on brands, disease states, clinical trials, data, and competitive products into the work
Uncover and create marketing initiatives that genuinely deliver on client strategy, not just check a box
Own the quality of art assets produced, including any third-party vendor work
Help manage day-to-day operations of the design team, setting priorities, assigning resources, and keeping projects on track
Work alongside CDs to grow the creative team while maintaining strong internal relationships
Track industry, competitor, and cultural trends, and pull them into the work; help shape agency strategy, not just follow it
What this role is not
This isn't a purely strategic seat removed from execution, you're still accountable for the art assets that actually go out the door. It's also not an entry-level leadership role, you need real agency and leadership experience behind you before stepping in here.
What you bring
Bachelor's degree in marketing, communications, life sciences, or a related field
At least 10 years in pharmaceutical marketing, including 5+ years agency-side and 3+ years at a leadership level
Experience leading brand planning with client budgets in the 3M–8M range
In-depth knowledge of pharmaceutical regulations and industry trends
Strong leadership and team collaboration skills
Excellent presentation and client interaction skills

Not an agency*
The layer-laden teams. The prehistoric processes. The impersonal, ego-driven dog-and-pony shows. Take what you think you know about agencies and burn it. P10 was born of the idea that if something isn't working—or could work better—change it. And that's exactly what we did. We know that what we're not makes us who we are. And we're not just another agency. We are people driven by a palpable passion and purpose, felt by our clients from the very first conversation.
