You are religiously strategic AND a wildly creative visionary. A digital creative shaman. You’re skilled at managing the minute details of creating great work while at the same time making the workplace a great place to be. Your passion is finding simple solutions to complex problems.
As a Senior Creative Director of the New York office, you’ll provide local leadership while collaborating with your peers in Chicago, Dallas, LA and San Francisco. Part IDEAlist, part manager, part entrepreneur and part motivator, you’re 100% driven to take iCrossing’s creative to industry-leading status. Initially, you will be focused on one large account driving the creative direction and mentoring the design team.
Whether your background is as a writer or designer, you have a keen mind for brilliant concepts, a track record of producing sophisticated, strategic work and the ingrained talent to get the best from those around you. You’ve won your fair share of awards and accolades but you’re not a prima donna – your team’s success and your clients’ growth is paramount.
You’ll be expected to work across all channels and are tasked with bringing a high level of excellence to a wide variety of projects. From mobile apps to iPad apps, display campaigns to huge corporate websites, your enthusiastic leadership and creative eye for opportunity inspire your team to consistently go above and beyond. You get technology, and even though you will never be expected to touch code, you understand its potential for your clients’ brands. You’ll be held to high standards and are unafraid to jump them to even higher ones.
