This is a unique hybrid role for a creative leader who thrives on connection, storytelling, and growth. It’s not a traditional business growth role — it’s about leveraging your personal network, reputation, and creative influence to open doors and spark partnerships.

You will also focus on creative direction: leading the work, inspiring local creative teams, and ensuring our creative standards are exceptional across every brief and pitch.

Key Responsibilities

Business Growth

• Use your industry network and reputation to identify and nurture new opportunities for the agency
• Lead the creative and strategic response to pitches and proactive proposals.
• Build and maintain trusted relationships with senior brand and marketing leaders.
• Partner with the COO to shape our market positioning, credentials, and agency narrative.
• Represent the agency externally through thought leadership, industry events, and creative showcases to raise visibility and attract opportunity.

Creative Leadership

• Lead the creative direction across key client projects and pitches that are creatively provocative, strategically grounded, and beautifully crafted.
• Guide local creative teams to produce elevated, world-class work.
• Shape and present creative concepts with clarity, confidence, and storytelling flair.

About You

• 15+ years’ experience.
• Proven Creative Director with an exceptional portfolio, coupled with a proven and extensive network.
• Well-connected within the brand, design, and marketing community, with relationships that open doors.
• Entrepreneurial, articulate, and commercially astute.
