Thinkerbell is looking for an amazing Lead Creative Tinker (Senior Copywriter) to join our team of Thinkers and Tinkers in Sydney.

HOW YOU’LL CREATE MEASURED MAGIC

What the hell is a Tinker? We’re glad you asked. Basically, you’re a creative person in the world of advertising. You may have a background in words, or production, or design, or filmmaking, or art direction (or all of the above) - we don’t mind. A Tinker pulls things apart and puts them back together again. They love playing with ideas and bringing them to life. They fiddle and poke and prod until their ideas are working just right. They love coming up with ideas and they love getting those ideas out into the world for everyone else to enjoy.

THE TASK AT HAND

As a Lead Creative Tinker, you’ll be developing your creative leadership skills within our agency and will be responsible for creative leadership across a selection of clients. You’ll help mentor and support our more junior Tinker team and provide guidance and support across key projects/accounts. You will collaborate with our Thinkers and Tinkers to produce ambitious and innovative work for our clients. You’ll need to take the reins and help us build and nurture our brand, our business and our clients.

You'll have three big things to do:

1. BIG CREATIVE THINKING

You bring big, awesome, scary ideas to the table. You know what a big idea is, how it looks and behaves and more importantly, how to wrestle one to the ground.

2. DEVELOPING CREATIVE LEADERSHIP

You’re starting to know how to lead yourself to your best thinking. You still need guidance, but can be left alone to work shit out for yourself. And you’re starting to develop an interest in leading others around you too.

3. ACT LIKE A CREATIVE, THINK LIKE A CLIENT

You’re working out when to do the right idea, for right now. You know not everything is Cannes gold, and your skills excel when doing the right idea, as well as when doing the stuff that makes you a little bit giddy with excitement.

LIFE AT THINKERBELL

Thinkerbell represents the coming together of scientific enquiry and hard core creativity – or as we like to call it, ‘Measured Magic’. We are an agency of Thinkers and Tinkers and have extensive experience in the worlds of media (paid, owned, earned, and shared), research, strategy, and creative execution. We have helped some of Australia’s best known and most loved brands find their inner magic.

We promise to push you out of your comfort zone, and nurture your inherent brilliant qualities at the same time. The Institute of Measured Magic is our training and development program where we keep brains sticky with internal and external tailored training throughout the year. We also develop personal Measured Magic Indicators (MMIs are our version of KPIs) to ensure everyone is growing in their role and beyond.

Whether you are a parent to little humans, the caregiver to your elder folk, or you simply do your best work over 4 days rather than 5 days- we are all ears and we are open to Full Time, Part Time or any ideas that lie in between.

We kick off every week with Measured Mondays, our all agency, super-wip and finish every Friday at 4pm with Magic Hour, where we get creative and weird together.
