We are looking for a creative leader who geeks out on future forward tools like A.I. We need someone who understands both CPG storytelling & brand standards to help maintain quality control as we build out a new A.I. platform for a large global brand.

As a VP/CD you will:

• Have a proven track record of thinking conceptually and strategically across multiple platforms – character-led storytelling a plus.
• Extensive production experience across TV, digital, social and beyond – and an eye for quality production.
• Understands the wants, hopes, dreams and business goals of a large CPG brand – food brand experience a plus.
• Serve as a bridge between the creative teams and the tech building teams.
• Ensure a high level of creative output from the new A.I. tool we’re building.
• Direct the tech team on the most beneficial outputs of the tool.
• Build relationships internally and externally which enables stakeholders to trust you when taking risks.
• Help lead us into the future.

• Four-year degree and at least ten years at a competitive creative agency. Work should include strong brand building, digital and multimedia experience, and a track record of successful creative work along with expertise developing cross-channel campaigns.
• Energy, a sense of humor and an open & curious mind (yes, these things really do matter.) So does being straightforward, candid and, above all, respectful – of the work and your peers.
• Awards are a nice bonus, but original breakthrough ideas and real creative problem solving are even better.

Got what it takes? We’d love to hear from you.
