About the role
We are working with a brand experience and content marketing agency based in Norwood, MA. They are looking to hire a Full time VP of Creative Director. Details below:
What They Need:
Creative Leadership & Vision
You set the creative standard. You push the work to be better, you know when something's not there yet, and you know how to bring a room along with you. This role comes in as an individual contributor with strong creative authority — and as you grow with us, there is a real opportunity to take on direct reports and expand your people management scope. You won't be leading the entire creative department, but building a team around your work is very much on the table.
Client-Facing Creative Partnership
You'll work closely with account directors and executive producers to make sure creative vision and brand strategy are fully aligned. You're a strong presenter who can sell ideas to senior clients with confidence and warmth. And who knows how to bring clients into the creative process rather than just presenting to them.
Innovation & Industry Awareness
You stay genuinely curious about where the industry is heading. Emerging technologies; generative AI, real-time production, volume stages, digital studio innovation, aren't buzzwords to you, they're tools you're actively thinking about and experimenting with. You bring that energy into the agency and into the work.
Business Development Support
You love a blue-sky brief. You'll be an active contributor to pitches and new business efforts. You will be concepting ideas, shaping narratives, and helping the agency show up at its best when it counts.
Quality & Craft
You hold the bar high. You sweat the details because you know that's what separates good work from great work, and you bring that sensibility to every project you touch.
Requirements:

This role is ONSITE 4 days a week in their Norwood Office. There is no flexibility, must be based in the area or willing to fully relocate.
