Here’s a rare opportunity for a Senior Creative Director to step into a global leadership role in New York. Do you have what it takes?
YOU
This internationally recognised creative agency is looking for an experienced Creative Director/Creative Partner to step into a senior leadership contract role (starting in June) based in New York. This person will act as the senior creative and business lead for a key global account, while also representing the agency’s presence in the US market during this contract period.
In this role, the primary focus will be leading work for a major global technology client, spanning everything from thought leadership and integrated campaigns through to film, events and sales enablement for a B2B audience. Alongside this, the role will provide oversight across selected social workstreams for well-known consumer brands, in collaboration with partner agencies.
This is a high-impact leadership role suited to someone who thrives at the intersection of creativity, client partnership and business growth. Acting as the most senior creative voice on the ground in New York, you will oversee the quality and ambition of all creative output across integrated campaigns while working closely with global teams. The role requires someone comfortable presenting work at senior client level, shaping creative direction from initial brief through to delivery, and ensuring a consistently high standard across multiple channels and formats.
Alongside creative leadership, the role involves building strong relationships with senior client stakeholders and identifying opportunities to grow the partnership over time. You will collaborate closely with international strategy, creative and account teams, while also helping strengthen the agency’s footprint in the US through new opportunities and partnerships.
The successful candidate will bring a strong track record of leading high-profile creative work, ideally within global or technology-led accounts, and be comfortable operating in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. This role suits someone who combines big-picture creative thinking with a hands-on leadership style and who enjoys building teams, developing talent and championing ambitious work.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a senior global creative leadership role with a highly respected agency, working on category-defining brands and campaigns.
