Who are you?
I use my creative craft, understanding of platforms and grasp of culture to solve marketing problems for a variety of brands. I have the most challenging role in the creative department as my duties are split between both doing the work as well as helping manage some of the work. I spend roughly 80% of my time working on solving briefs and 20% of my time managing projects under the direction of my CD. I don’t have an assigned partner so I often work alone. Occasionally, I’ll work with another creative in the pod. And sometimes I’ll partner with the CD. While other members of the pod do not technically report to me, it’s expected that I help mentor them when possible.
TL;DR - I have the most challenging role in the creative department. I fulfill the duties of an AD or CW but also help manage projects under my CD’s discretion. #thenavysealsofcreative
My qualifications include
- Proven art direction, writing and design skills of 7 years
- Strong understanding of ideas versus tactics
- Exceptional understanding of social platforms (Meta, TikTok, Snapchat, Reddit etc.)
- Hands-on content creation skills (shooting, editing, and producing for social); you aren't just directing, you are making.
- Exceptional concepting ability & ability to make SMAs (social media ad)
- Natural leadership tendencies
- Exceptional video production experience
- Proven experience with AI tools
- Great with feedback and revisions
- Proven experience leading creative for home and/or cleaning brands
What you should know about VaynerMedia
Think “lab” and not “agency”. We get excited about solving business problems, not creating advertising for the sake of making advertising. Our entrepreneurship DNA runs deep. We’re willing to break rules, try new things, and test hypotheses if it means better understanding our craft. It’s fun!
Our environment (and pace) feels much more like a start-up than most agencies you might be used to. Hopefully that, and the opportunity to collaborate with the talented and enthusiastic crew, work with big brands excites you, as it does us. We can’t wait to meet you.
P.S Send us your portfolio --- always excited to see some unicorn talents :)
