I really enjoy working with this client. They’re a fun bunch who have carved out a pretty unique niche within the world of advertising, working 360. And their CD is great – a real culture Zeitgeist, interested in anything and everything. (Ask him about his music career…)
He’s on a quest to find a senior creative to help unburden him a bit. What he wants is a capable and responsible big ideas person with both art direction and copy skills, experienced in ATL/TTL/BTL.
This person needs to be a lover and producer of concepts, words and pictures. Someone with vision and maturity; someone who can generate exciting marketing ideas across various genres (ads, POS, dm, experiential and digital for instance) and see them through with a good eye for the look and feel, as well as a clear ability to compose and structure the messaging.
And while this position isn’t officially a Deputy Creative Director role, the person coming in would be the next most senior creative within the agency, answering only to the CD and the MD – hence they need to be as responsible as they are talented, as they will lead creative on numerous projects and they’ll need to oversee freelancers and juniors and make client presentations.
So, in essence, this role is for someone who has around 7 years under their belt who:
- is great at ideas
- is excellent with words
- is a brilliant designer/art director (perhaps they studied it at Central St Martins, Bucks or Falmouth?)
- has good scamping skills
- is mature and responsible
- is able to communicate internally and with clients
- has basic Mac skills and knows a little Photoshop, Indesign or Illustrator
- wants to grow their career, step up and take on more responsiblilty.
If this sounds like an interesting position then please get in touch to find out more. I can be emailed at tim@timothycreative.com or called on 07710 419 702. It’s a great role and the person coming on board would join a really forward thinking energised/dynamic and fun team. It’s a great opportunity.
