Creative Directors, New York - Building our Networks
About The Position
We are looking to increase our network of Creative Directors working in our Broadway studio on project specific, temporary contracts. This role is a key pillar in our multidimensional design work offering concept and narrative/storytelling direction to the interdisciplinary team. We have some great long-term relationships, but as our portfolio grows we're looking to build our networks and meet new collaborators that can co-deliver our next stage of projects. We're interested to hear from people who actively work in project specific temporary contracts and/or freelance contracts. To manage expectations we are not offering permanent contacts for this role at this time. As a Creative Director in our team/s you will have direct experience on design-based projects and significant experience collaborating directly with Designers across specialisms. You will be able to work regularly within New York - we're unable to consider applications from those working remotely for this opportunity.
