At Tag, we love what we do and pride ourselves on an authentic culture built on our core values of integrity, innovation, sustainability, growth, and accountability.

We are a leading creative production and sourcing partner to brands and agencies and we have over 50 years of marketing execution experience, working with the world’s best brands. We are creative directors, graphic designers, CGI artists, writers, photographers, producers, linguists, operations experts, and account managers, coming together to deliver impactful content with craft, scale, and speed.

Our marketing expertise digs deep into industry sectors and marketing channels, to help our clients stand out and sell more, everywhere.

As people, we are collaborators and makers, learners, and listeners, with a strong commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, service, and work-life harmony.

As our next Associate Creative Director (ACD), you’ll be steering the creative ship while keeping it fun. You'll work closely with Creative Leadership and lead a team of designers, copywriters, and content creators. Your job? Guide the team, nurture fresh ideas, and deliver the kind of work that makes jaws drop.

This role requires strong expertise in video and design, with the ability to develop content (often social-forward) that seamlessly blends creative visuals with strategic, targeted messaging. A hands-on professional that applies advanced knowledge of the client’s market, brand, and strategies to craft compelling visual designs and narratives.

You'll

• Conceptualize and develop killer creative for our super cool clients
• Leverage creative experience and advanced knowledge of visual design and development to stimulate innovative designs from ideation to execution and delivery
• Be able to lead designers, content creators, and writers to deliver craft and quality while also being able to jump in yourself
• Collaborate with account managers and social media managers to make sure the work is as strategic as it is beautiful
• Know the ins and outs of social media, get what the client wants, and use what’s trending on each platform to help create the next big viral moment
• Create social-first ideas with a deep understanding of organic content strategies across Meta (FB, IG), TikTok, YouTube, and X—making platform-native work that earns attention and engagement
• Adapt strong social concepts into larger 360° campaigns, expanding ideas across additional marketing channels and formats
• Pitch creative ideas to clients with flair (and a touch of magic)
• Stay on top of trends, platform evolutions, and creative technologies
• Mentor junior talent and build an environment where creativity thrives
  
  

What You Bring To The Table

• 7+ years of creative experience in an agency setting, with at least 2 in a leadership role
• A portfolio that makes us say "wow" and then "how do we do that?"—especially showcasing social-first campaigns
• Expertise in concepting and executing across channels—digital, print, video, social—you know it all, but you think in feed, swipe, and scroll
• Deep experience with organic social strategy, execution, and optimization on platforms including Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and X
• A knack for balancing big ideas with real-world execution (yep, we need both)
• Excellent communication skills. You'll be presenting to clients, and we want you to have fun with it.
• The ability to thrive under pressure and turn tight deadlines into creative opportunities
• Experience with dynamic content optimization (DCO) a plus
• A leadership style that's inspiring, supportive, and a little fun
  
  

Bonus Points If You

• Have a secret talent (juggling, ukulele, baking show-worthy cakes… we love surprises)
• Have a natural sense of humor—we work hard, but we laugh a lot too
• Know your memes. (The right GIF at the right time is an art form.)
  
  

What’s in it for you?

• Competitive salary + benefits (of course)
• Hybrid work environment (a.k.a. work in your sweats sometimes)
• A team thatgenuinelyloves what they do
• Creative freedom (bring your wildest ideas—let’s make them happen)
• Opportunities to grow, because we want to see you win
  
  

This is the opportunity to work in an environment that best suits your needs, fueled by flexible hours and locations, strong supportive benefits, career training and development and, most importantly, an inclusive environment that eliminates barriers and elevates voices, giving every member of the Tag team an opportunity to be seen and heard.

We’ve made a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion and are taking a stance on equality in the workplace. We support sustainability, in our organization and with our network of partners and suppliers.
