Executive Creative Director

Project Worldwide • Full-time • New York, NY, US • $200k - $225k / year • 5m ago

We have an extraordinary opportunity for an extraordinary person. We hope it could be you.

GPJ is looking for a creative leader that will help us create the very future of what experiential marketing can be. This new team member will collaborate with one of our most dynamic, forward-thinking client brands and equally talented GPJ team on a variety of integrated programs and projects, events and experiences that will shape our industry moving forward.

This role will lead global growth and inspire local teams for an iconic brand.

The ideal candidate will work in our awesome New York office.

Our Opportunity.

This is an ECD-level position, which means the ideal candidate will have 10+ years experience working in experiential marketing agencies, creative production companies, entertainment organizations or immersive entertainment companies. This individual will have experience creating, guiding and galvanizing large teams while working in concert with leaders from strategy, production and fabrication to bring it all together.

To be clear, we’re looking for someone who thinks big and creates even bigger. We’re looking for the force multiplier. The campaigns and programs they craft will be experiences and moments that unfold across screen, space, stage and time - telling stories and creating goose bumps through immersive environments, engagements and activations.

This is also a client-facing role, so working closely with brands and their creative teams will be the norm. Presenting ideas, concepts and designs will be at the heart of your day-to-day world. Being confident and comfortable with client executives, challenging perceptions and persuading with passion is mandatory.

Success will come in many forms outside of the creative work itself. Elements include:

Successful creation of the creative approach on the account
Management of creative talent on the account, including freelance staffing and internal resourcing for select roles as work ebbs and flows throughout the year
Explore new ways of thinking and working to inspire new levels of creativity and aspirations
Partnering with the overall leadership team on the account to create a successful, diverse culture rooted in trust
Collaborate across our practices, including Strategy, Digital, Fabrication, and more, as well as across our Project Worldwide network
Clearly communicating with client, agency and account leadership, setting expectations on deliverables, outlining goals and opportunities and providing clear direction for the team and the business
Contributing to the creative culture of the New York office and agency as a whole, being curious about other aspects and accounts at GPJ and supporting other creative leaders and team members through kindness, mentorship and empathy
- In office attendance 2 days per week
A commitment to upholding and delivering against the GPJ Creative Values of Trust, Diversity, Collaboration, Audacity and Growth

Salary Range: $200k - $225k

Salary is dependent on a variety of factors including (but not limited to) experience, skills, and location.

Who We Are.

GPJ is the world leader in experiential marketing. Our 29 global offices are filled with fearless people dreaming up ideas that are transforming industries and bringing the most respected brands to life in powerful, exciting ways. We are a part of the Project Worldwide family. An independent, employee-owned global network of complementary, wholly owned agencies.

You read that “employee-owned” part, right? You heard us correctly. You work hard, she works hard, we all work hard… we all succeed and reap the rewards. We have an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) – providing our employees with an ownership interest. We thought you would want to know that. In fact, there is a lot more you would want to know about us, like our FTO policy (no more “accruing” time off), our employer matching 401(k) plan (no vesting period), our “no employee contribution” healthcare option. But we are getting ahead of ourselves here, let us talk about this exciting opportunity first and we can fill you in on our perks & benefits later.

GPJ is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity), national origin, citizenship, disability, protected veteran status, or any other protected class. In addition to federal law requirements, GPJ complies with applicable state and local laws governing nondiscrimination in employment in every location in which the company has facilities. This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including recruiting, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation, and training. GPJ expressly prohibits any form of workplace harassment based on any protected class.
