• Provide specialist knowledge, guidance, and expertise in your primary discipline to inform project decision-making and improve our teams' capability 
• Monitor performance and utilization for your team of creatives, ensuring we have accurate information to guide growth decisions for the department

• A portfolio of high-quality video examples for the commercial sector
• Proven results as a world-class creative in an international top-tier, fast-paced, and fast-growing environment

• A basic understanding/capability within Adobe CC, with a focus on the video tools within this suite
• The ability to function as a customer-facing member of the team, dealing with a largely Western, English-speaking customer base
• An ability to work independently and in a team environment where you foster creative problem-solving and experimentation
• Exceptional English verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to present ideas and facilitate discussions in large groups
• Strong project management skills with the ability to lead multiple projects and deliver top-quality processes and ways of working
• Passion for mentoring and training others toward excellence and success
• Preferably some experience or a keen interest in Generative AI
