Reports to: Chief Creative Officer
Years Experience: 10+ Years
Department: Creative
Location: Boca Raton, FL

Are you ready to change the way the world sees healthcare?

At BPD, we believe creativity can change lives—literally. We’re searching for a boundary-pushing, team-rallying, breakthrough-making Executive Creative Director to lead our diverse creative crew and drive ideas that inspire, challenge, and make a real difference in people's health journeys. Simply put: we’re here to bring better health to more people.

This isn’t just a leadership role—it’s a chance to shape the future of healthcare communication. You’ll lead a multidisciplinary team of writers, art directors, designers, and editors to develop bold, unexpected work that turns complex healthcare challenges into compelling stories and brand experiences. You’ll also be the kind of creative leader who lifts others up, helps shape a vision, and inspires ideas that move minds, hearts and business.

Includes, but not limited to the following:

• Champion big ideas from pitch to execution across every channel.
• Set the creative vision and tone for the company’s portfolio, ensuring work is original, strategically aligned, and emotionally resonant.
• Inspire and mentor a high-performing creative team across disciplines; foster a culture of collaboration, trust, innovation, and accountability.
• Raise the creative bar—conceptually and craft-wise—on all work; maintain high standards while balancing timelines and budgets.
• Partner with clients to make daring ideas reality,  with empathy and clarity while ensuring alignment with business and regulatory needs.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Strategy, Media, Engagement and Account teams to create integrated solutions that are insight-driven and results-focused.
• Stay fluent in creative and cultural trends within and beyond healthcare to fuel innovation and differentiate.
• Show up for your team and your clients. This role should expect at least 50% of their time to be spent in-person/traveling. Including but not limited to:
• Team collaboration in Boca Raton or Nashville offices
• Client travel

• A growth mindset.
• 10+ years of creative experience, with at least 5 leading teams, ideally within healthcare advertising or communications.
• A standout portfolio of award-winning or transformative work.
• Strong conceptual chops and storytelling instincts.
• Natural leadership style—empathetic, inclusive, and inspiring.
• Ability to present with confidence and connect with clients on a human level.
• Proclivity for pitching new business and attracting new clients.
• Deep understanding of healthcare regulations and the ability to work creatively within them (nice to have).
