Vice President, Creative Director - New York, United States - Daniel J Edelman Holdings
Description
Mustache, part of the Daniel J. Edelman Holdings (DJE) family of companies, has a fantastic opportunity for a Creative Director to join the team. In this role, you'll create groundbreaking, social-first campaigns on one of the world's greatest tech brands. You're someone who sees social trends before they're trends and knows how to conceptualize, create, and put things out into the world at the speed of culture.
You'll be joining a diverse group of creatives that shift culture through work like Good Humor x RZA's new take on the ice cream jingle, eBay's Drive-Thru Authentication Station, and the KFC 11 Herbs & Spices Firelog. If you're looking to create ideas that end up in the NY Times, The Verge, and Reddit, or winning some of the industry's biggest awards like the Webby's and One Show, this is the right agency for you.
We're looking for a creative that has a passion for pop culture, technology and social media. Someone who is just as comfortable thinking of earned ideas as they are thinking of the kind of content you want to see in your feed. From Tiktoks to Tweets, we want someone who can lead a team from the concept to client presentation, and quickly to people's feeds, and not be afraid to roll their sleeves up along the way. We're not just looking to make filler content, we want to make fun, witty, unexpected work that gets noticed.
You will be joining a team diverse of creatives who are collaborative, curious, smart, and kind, and we're looking for a leader that will continue to foster that.
