Creative work is changing fast. Are you ready to lead that shift, not just react to it?
We're looking for a Creative Director to lead our Digital Creative Unit and raise the bar on our creative output - across digital marketing and communication projects. AI is changing how creative work gets done, but the human behind the idea still matters most. We want someone with a strong, informed point of view on where this is heading, who isn't afraid to push back when needed. If you're ready to hold your team and yourself to a high standard and shape the future of creative work at VI - not just manage it - we want to hear from you.
What you will do:
-
Lead the Digital Creative Unit, both professionally and as their manager - fostering the growth of the team and individual talents
-
Shape how the team works with AI - bring your own point of view on pace and direction, and help the team use it to sharpen their craft
-
Develop and shape strong creative ideas, and guide the team in bringing them to life
-
Connect strategy and creation in daily work
-
Set clear expectations and hold your ground in conflicts when needed
-
Convincingly present creative concepts to (potential) clients, communicating the value and impact of the ideas
What we expect:
-
Experience as Creative Director, Head of Digital, Creative Strategist or similar, in a digital agency environment with a focus on digital marketing and communication
-
A genuine point of view on AI and how it changes creative work
-
A proven track record of strong, boundary-pushing creative thinking, paired with clear strategic reasoning
-
Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to inspire and motivate a team
-
Conflict ability - you can name expectations clearly and stand by them
-
Leadership experience is a plus
-
Fluent English is required; fluent German is an advantage; based in Austria is an advantage
