  • Prioritize and delegate work to maintain timelines and budgets while delivering best-in-class work
  • Help evaluate, refine, and ultimately approve internal creative briefs 
  • Conceptualize new platform, campaign on content ideas based on strategic insights 
  • Ideate executional approaches inspired by innovations and contemporary marketing trends 
  • Give clear and actionable feedback to team members based on a deep understanding of their skill sets and creative tools

  • Own and manage the building of pitch and concept decks from start-to-finish, including write-ups, references and custom visual comps
  • Present to large groups of people with passion and poise

  • You understand how to be authentically native on social platforms via short-form video, motion graphics, trending sounds, etc.
  • You are cool and focused under pressure and in the face of a high volume of deliverables
  • You are a strong communicator who treats co-workers and clients with empathy and respect
