• A portfolio of award-winning, full-funnel, brand-driven work that demonstrates big-idea thinking and exceptional design execution.
• A passion for creating culturally relevant, visually arresting creative that engages audiences and builds brands.
• Proven experience pitching and winning new business, as well as confidently presenting work internally and to clients.
• Hands-on production experience, including overseeing shoots, working with directors, editors and producers and executing high-quality visuals at every stage.
• Ability to work at both a high level (big ideas) and in the details (design execution, typography, layout, and composition).
• Proficiency in Google Suite, Adobe Creative Suite and other relevant design tools.
• The ability to thrive in a collaborative, high-energy environment with no ego—just a drive to make big ideas and great work come to life.
• Strong experience thinking conceptually, writing in multiple formats, and developing multi-platform campaigns, from TV and CTV to digital, social, and everything in between.
• A self-starter mindset with the ability to build creative presentations that convey your ideas independently.
• Confidence in presenting, sharing, and selling your work to clients and internal stakeholders at all levels.
• Experience identifying, briefing, and working with Paid Influencers and UGC creators.
