    Default job background
    Description

    Penta is a global company providing data-driven solutions to help clients achieve their objectives in an increasingly complex stakeholder environment. We provide cutting-edge intelligence products to help clients understand what their stakeholders think, see, and hear, and then leverage that intelligence to develop and execute effective, measurable strategies.

    Our 350+ person global team brings decades of experience in business, government, communications, research, data science, and media. Our clients include companies across a variety of industries, including technology, financial services, energy, healthcare, and more. Penta has offices in New York, London, Washington, DC, San Francisco, Vail, Dublin, London, Brussels, Singapore, and Hong Kong.

    Penta Creative is the firm's in-house creative agency. We blend the firm's hallmark analytical and communications expertise with storytelling, design, and technology to help clients increase the accessibility, reach, and emotional resonance of their ideas.

    We work across the firm's client portfolio, developing creative solutions and campaign concepts that have the power to shape perspectives and inspire action on the issues that matter most.

    Summary of Director Position:

    Penta is seeking a mid-level professional to join our dynamic Creative team as a Director.

    Directors lead multiple client engagements and internal projects and work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. Directors are responsible for all components of client and internal project management: strategy setting, daily client interactions, organizing teamwork internally, and guiding and mentoring producers, associates, analysts, and interns in their work.

    A successful candidate has 5+ years of professional experience, including 2+ years of management experience in creative agencies or marketing/advertising, with experience directly managing people/staff as well as projects. They are intellectually curious, eager to learn and contribute, and work well on and with teams. The ideal candidate will have experience in campaigns or issues that go beyond consumer goods, such as public affairs/awareness campaigns or professional services, and a familiarity with public policy.

    Duties & Responsibilities:

    Oversee and manage the strategic direction of the project, designate tasks to Producers and Designers accordingly, and ensure the team stays on track to meet clients' needs based on the scope of work agreements.

    -Lead client meetings, serving as the first point of contact for any concerns or questions.

    Monitor clients' business, industry activities, and related media coverage to maintain a current knowledge base of the relevant market and news cycles.

    Use industry-specific research assessments to inform strategic client recommendations and proposals for potential clients.

    Work closely with client teams and internal teams to provide direction that turns qualitative and quantitative research into creative, emotionally compelling, and digital storytelling concepts that capture the depth of insights and findings.

    The Director's role will be focused on the macro strategic choices within the realms of brand strategy, campaign development, advertising, and digital strategy, rather than on details of design or production.

    Qualifications:

    Professional experience in brand strategy, marketing, advertising, or a related creative field

    Demonstrated ability to lead, mentor, and motivate talented, high-achieving teams, empowering different types of personalities with a team-first mentality

    Excellent verbal and written communication and presentation skills

    Demonstrated ability to prioritize multiple, competing priorities

    Willingness to learn new skills and participate in new projects, leading by example and embracing new challenges

    Strong interest in creative content

    Experience working in a client service environment

    Previous work on public affairs or public awareness campaigns, professional services, or complex issues like healthcare or finance

    Experience working on remote teams

    Benefits:

    Competitive salary and compensation structure

    Excellent health care benefits with 100% of individual employee premiums and 50% of dependent health care premiums covered.

    Competitive retirement benefits with 401(k) matching

    Twelve weeks paid parental leave.

    Monthly stipend for cell phone

    Generous paid time off and holiday schedule

    Frequent firm-wide social events and activities

    Excellent environment for learning and growth

    Penta Group, LLC values diversity and inclusion, is committed to equal employment opportunity, and to compliance with federal anti-discrimination laws. We also comply with District of Columbia law, which prohibits discrimination and harassment against employees, applicants for employment and interns based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions, reproductive health decisions and breastfeeding), national origin, disability, age (18 and over), personal appearance, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, marital status, family responsibilities, matriculation (e.g., being enrolled in a college or university or in a business, nursing, professional, secretarial, technical or vocational school), political affiliation, genetic information (including family medical history), lawful use of tobacco products, unemployment status and status as a victim or the family member of a victim of domestic violence, a sexual offense or stalking.
