Creative Director

Company description About Team One: Team One is Publicis Groupe’s fully integrated media, digital, and communications agency built to help premium brands thrive in a rapidly evolving world. We’re known as the ‘architects of aspiration’ helping luxury brands reach modern affluents and next-gen consumers through culturally fluent strategies and experiences, unmatched access, and the agility to move at the speed of culture. We’re a team of 400+ creators, doers, and difference-makers across six North American offices—Los Angeles (our HQ), Dallas, New York, Chicago, Atlanta, and Boise. Together, we’re proud partners to iconic brands, including Lexus and the Lexus Dealer Association, Marriott International, The Ritz-Carlton, Barclays, The RealReal, HKS Architects, Metabo HPT, KB Home, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Moėt Hennessy, Citi., and Cathay Pacific Airlines. We take pride in our industry-shaping creativity, connection, and exceptional culture that have been recognized with honors like Fast Company’s Best Workplaces for Innovators and Ad Age’s Best Places to Work. Overview About this Position: We're looking for a Creative Director who’s a writer by trade and passion. Someone with a lyrical, disarming maybe even elegant way with words. Possessing a sneaky aptitude for strategic thinking would be good. Can you wrap all this up in a masterful story that has clients and consumers clutching at their imaginary pearls? Perfect. Being dialed into culture is part of the job. But so is the impulse to carve new paths. We say we’re an agency about aspiration. Either that’s true. Or it devolves into sales copy. That said, we’re looking for people with big aspirations. Cynicism doesn’t have much ROI to us. Perpetually naïve and hopeful works here. What You’ll Do: Using your god-like facility with language, you will write and tell stories. With your knack for flawless execution, those stories will magnetize attention and command purchase across every conceivable realm of persuasion. Your leadership and mentorship skills will be called into service. Are you the type of creative leader who can guide other creatives to flashpoint advances in their own skills? If so, we need you. We have long-standing client relationships and nascent ones. What they share is a need for thoughtful guidance. A sense of confidence that comes from your honed instincts and egoless conviction. What You Bring: Bring something like 10 years of experience. Bring a range of work that trades in intelligence, wit, beauty and a heightened aesthetic. Bring an ability to spin up emotion in a heart-punching way. The “Team” part of Team One is real. So come with a willingness to work closely with other wickedly smart and talented people. The business is changing fast. Change is a near weekly tradition here now. So bring curiosity and a lean toward rapid evolution. Don’t let the luxury focus fool you. There’s nothing stuffy or formal about our culture. It’s convivial and familial. That said, just bring your cool, unpretentious, fun, wide-eyed self. The rest, we’ll figure out. Why It’s Great to Work Here: We live by our C.O.R.E. values: Collaborative - We work together to get better stuff done than we could alone. Optimistic - Honest and confident in our quest forward; believing the impossible is possible. Results-driven - Creativity is always in service of results and never for its own sake. Entrepreneurial - Build something new. Shoot for the moon. We offer comprehensive benefits and ‘work perks’ like great options for medical / dental / vision insurance, 401(k) with company matching, unlimited PTO, generous paid parental leave, tuition reimbursement, family forming assistance reimbursement, pet adoption assistance + “pawternity” leave, etc. We have a hybrid work schedule 3 days a week in office. We’re part of Publicis Groupe which is a huge global network, so there are many resources that come with that like Business Resource Groups for a variety of communities like Publicis Parents, VivaWomen, Egalité, etc. We give back to our communities with our annual Day of Good and volunteer opportunities throughout the year. We love to grow our talent and promote from within whenever possible, and we offer professional development trainings and regular structured performance reviews. We have a lot fun! We have a whole committee called “Team Fun” that plans parties and events for us to celebrate birthdays, holidays, cultural moments, etc. Some recent fun events include a flower bouquet bar, origami lessons, and hearing from creative entrepreneurs at our Moonshot speaker series.
