Summary Generated by Built In

We are looking for an experienced and creatively driven Creative Director to lead our creative, design, and production functions. The role involves overseeing the end-to-end development of digital creatives, video content, advertising assets, brand campaigns, and production projects.

The ideal candidate should have a strong understanding of visual communication, video production, editing, digital advertising creatives, and creative team management. They should be capable of translating briefs into compelling creative outputs while ensuring quality, consistency, timely execution, and alignment with brand objectives.

What you'll actually be doing
 1. Calling the Creative Shots
  • Set the creative direction for brand campaigns, digital content, advertising creatives, and social media assets.

  • Turn briefs into strong visual concepts, creative references, storyboards, and execution plans.

  • Keep the creative output fresh, relevant, on-brand, and far away from looking like everybody else's work.

  • Review and approve designs, videos, edits, and campaign assets before they go live.

 2. From Shoot Day to Final Cut
  • Oversee end-to-end production, from pre-production planning and shoot execution to editing and final delivery.

  • Work closely with videographers, editors, motion designers, and production teams to bring concepts to life.

  • Guide scripts, shot lists, mood boards, visual references, transitions, pacing, sound design, and overall storytelling.

  • Make sure the final output looks as good in execution as it did in the original idea.

  • Keep shoots organised, timelines realistic, and last-minute chaos under control.

 3. Design That Doesn't Just Look Pretty
  • Lead the design team across social media creatives, campaign assets, digital banners, brand communication, and other visual deliverables.

  • Ensure every visual has a purpose, every layout makes sense, and every brand has its own identity.

  • Give clear creative feedback that makes the work better, not just different.

  • Push the team to experiment with new styles, formats, visual treatments, and creative approaches.

4. Ads That Make People Stop Scrolling
  • Lead the development of digital advertising creatives across Meta, Google, YouTube, and other relevant platforms.

  • Work with performance marketing teams to develop scroll-stopping visuals, UGC-style ads, product creatives, video hooks, and multiple creative variations.

  • Understand what makes an ad visually compelling and how creative choices influence audience response.

  • Use campaign insights and performance feedback to improve future creatives.

  • Keep the balance between looking good, communicating the message, and getting the audience to take action.

5. Influencing Creative Teams & Collaboration
  • Provide creative guidance and mentorship to designers, video editors, motion designers, and production professionals across different teams or pods.

  • Influence creative direction and quality standards without necessarily requiring direct reporting relationships with every team member.

  • Share expertise, provide constructive feedback, and help creative professionals strengthen their skills, creative judgement, and execution.

  • Collaborate with pod leads and relevant stakeholders to align creative output with project requirements, brand objectives, and quality expectations.

  • Encourage an environment where people can pitch ideas, experiment, challenge the obvious, and develop stronger creative solutions.

  • Support collaboration between account management, influencer marketing, social media, performance marketing, and production teams to bring projects together.

  • Contribute to improving creative workflows, review processes, and consistency across deliverables.

 6. Keeping Up With What's Next
  • Stay on top of emerging design trends, editing styles, digital formats, creator content, and AI-powered creative tools.

  • Know what's trending, what's overdone, and what's actually worth trying.

  • Explore smarter ways to improve creative output, production quality, and turnaround time.

  • Keep the team curious, the ideas fresh, and the quality bar high.

Okay, but what should you bring to the table?
  • 5-6 years of relevant experience in creative production, digital advertising, design, video production, or integrated creative teams.

  • Experience leading creative teams in a digital agency, advertising agency, production house, or similar environment.

  • A strong portfolio showcasing campaigns, design work, video content, advertising creatives, and production projects.

  • A solid understanding of graphic design, video editing, motion graphics, shoot production, and post-production workflows.

  • Experience working with digital-first brands, social media content, influencer campaigns, UGC, and performance advertising.

  • The ability to give meaningful feedback, make creative decisions, and bring out the best in a team.

  • Strong project management skills and the ability to juggle multiple briefs, deadlines, and deliverables.
