Basic Qualifications
The Creative Director must have at least 12 years of relevant experience in creative, advertising, public relations or editorial.
Growth
We have access to some of the biggest and best brands on the planet, from CPG to healthcare to corporate – we’ve got it all. We need you to help us expand our relationships, win new business, and open the eyes of our clients with big, integrated ideas.
Leadership
We have an energized, fast moving creative team. They need a leader who can lead a team to bring the Edelman idea to life with fearless creativity.
A leader that can seamlessly transform a strategic thought into best-in-class creative. Not only can you make it rain with new business, but will also inspire once the work is won. You can roll up your sleeves when needed, but also know when to back off and let your team rise up and shine. You know how to empower your team and be their mentor – you selflessly understand that their success is your success.
Flexibility
We have every type of client and we do every type of work. Sometimes we’re the big agency handling huge multimedia initiatives. Other times we’re but one of a half dozen shops, taking direction, and playing well with others in a very big sandbox. You can roll with it...whatever the situation.
Creative
At the end of the day, you live and breathe creative. You’ve got chops, passion and a great portfolio. After all, it takes one to know one.
Experience
We could throw around agency names, dates and degrees, but we understand that wisdom isn’t bound by your book, nor is it earned it just by showing up. You’ve been an Idea CD, worked with big brands, and have done your time at an integrated agency. You’ve got character and perspective, the result of hard work and a diverse background that extends at least back to the 90’s.
Enthusiasm
Ah yes, more intangibles, we feed off each other’s energy and then pass that excitement along to our clients. Because we all know that passion translates into great work...and a great place to work.
In return for all that you bring, we’ll offer you this...
A stable parent company with amazing benefits, global opportunities, that’s annually voted one of the best companies to work for.
Incredibly smart, talented, motivated, fun people to work with.
