The Agency

This is a brand experience agency creating impressions that count. We have been creating pop-ups, live

events and brand activations for more than a decade.

We believe making people feel valued, creates a different kind of value. Where people feel part of an inner circle

and want to invite their closest friends. Where people keep talking about an experience long after it’s over, reliving

how it made them feel. Where people choose you first and stay with you for the long run.

That’s what we try to achieve in our own company.

We do everything in our power to deliver the individual dreams of the people we work with. To us this isn’t just

business, it’s personal.

Our expertise is focused on the ‘live’ realm of events and experiences. But it’s broad within this category: we do

in-person, hybrid and virtual; we work across all client verticals; we’re equally at home doing B2B conferences or

consumer activations.

 

Job Description

A leader who can take responsibility for the creative output of a project: responsible for the strategy, the idea, the

design and the creative delivery of pitches and projects.

 

Duties & Responsibilities

As a smaller agency, our creative directors are ‘doers’ as well overseers of the studio teams output. Direct duties of

the role include:

- Ideating: generating the big concepts and the small ideas that make up the events and experiences we

create for our clients.

- Working alongside 2d, 3d and motion designers to realise the big idea using the most appropriate tools

- Articulating these ideas and complete creative solutions through writing proposals and presentations and

presenting them to clients.

- Collaborating with Project Directors and Technical Production teams to ensure the agency’s output is of

the highest standard.

- Collaborating with creative suppliers in the creative delivery of the project- from lighting Designers to Set

Builders

 

Skills & Background

In our experience, different creative leaders have followed different career paths but whether you started as a

graphic designer, architect or copywriter, you’ve spent the majority of your career in a creative discipline.

For this role, we expect you to have held a Creative Director position either full time or freelance in an agency for

at least 3 years - with the primary focus of your work being events and experiences. This means you’ll be well

versed in all creative aspects of B2B, B2C, virtual and in-person experiences.

We’d expect the successful applicant to meet the following criteria:

● Ability to work under pressure and meet deadlines in a fast-paced creative environment

● Ability to receive input and feedback to the creative idea from clients and colleagues in a positive way

● Ability to effectively and appropriately interact with co-workers at a variety of levels, across many

disciplines

● A demonstrated track record of gaining the trust and respect of clients, colleagues and suppliers by

consistently demonstrating sound critical thinking skills and maintaining composure in stressful situations

● Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with the ability to communicate to all levels

● Highly organized with a keen sense of attention to detail

● Exceptional initiative and follow-through skills

● After-hours work and overnight travel required

We deliver a high volume of work, often on tight timelines as such you’ll be expected to work on the different

stages of multiple projects simultaneously.

We all work from home on Mondays and Friday and like to be in the office where possible for the remaining three

days.
