Job Description

We’re looking to hire a Creative Director, Social to join our rapidly growing Social Creative Lab at Dentsu Creative.

Our culture is everything. Everyone is here to make great work in a collaborative environment that runs on creative energy. We also make a promise… if you join our group, you will make a lot of great work for your book.

Dedication To Craft

Key Accountabilities

• We want to make beautiful things for the internet in whatever format is deemed most relevant. We stand out in the market because every detail is considered. We consider the small things as much as we do the big.

• You have the belief that all facets of social are powerful and deserve the same care – from text-only tweets to an IG story to collaborating with the influencer team, and especially large activations that drive UGC.

Things This Job Is NOT

• A social post factory.
• We are not the ‘can you do the social posts for my TV spot’ group. We win our own clients. We run our own projects. We have our own relationships with clients (and they really are awesome).
• Limited. We work whatever format makes sense for the project.

Qualifications
