The team

We're looking for a Creative Director to work alongside our ECD at ITV Creative, running the campaign team. They'll have a mid-senior level team and two junior-mid teams working into them.

The role

In this role you'll head up the campaign creative team, delivering concepts that work across TV, digital, social and outdoor.

• A great creative eye for art and copy
• A passion for TV and entertainment
• An ability to work with high-level stakeholders and to build positive long term relationships in a large organisation.
• A collaborative nature, you'll be comfortable leading teams, managing workloads and timelines for yourself and others.
• Ability to present and sell through complex concepts and create large-scale campaign thoughts.
• Creative stamina to keep pushing the quality of the work

Other things we're looking for (key criteria)

• Proven experience working as a CD.
• Someone well rounded - who can work across art, copy, film, digital, social (and beyond) to create different-shaped ideas.
• Experience working at established advertising agencies or in broadcast
• An up to date portfolio site, showing recent work for well known brands/properties.
