Senior Creative stepping into a Creative Director Role – Award-Winning Production Agency


Location: London (Hybrid)

Department: Creative

Reports to: Executive Creative Director


Profiles Creative are working with an award-winning production agency to find a Creative Director who thrives on variety, leads with empathy, and knows how to bring bold ideas to life—at speed and at scale.


This is a unique opportunity to head up a tight-knit team of designers and writers, steering everything from fast-paced social content to big, cross-market brand activations. You’ll work hands-on across projects, collaborate with top-tier CGI and motion talent, and play a key role in bridging creative with production.


If you’re passionate about crafting smart, scalable creative—and shaping a collaborative, kind, and curious culture—this one’s for you.


This role is perfect for somebody stepping into a CD role so somebody who has mentored before. Are you a Senior creative or an ACD looking to jump up the ladder?


What You’ll Do:

  • Lead and inspire: Mentor a small team of designers and writers, guiding ideas from concept to execution.
  • Stay hands-on: Be actively involved in the creative—from art directing and reviewing decks to tightening visuals or rethinking the angle.
  • Collaborate with the best: Work alongside world-class CGI, motion, and video teams to bring ideas to life.
  • Think at scale: Develop workflows, content systems, and strategies that support high-volume, multi-market delivery.
  • Champion innovation: Explore new tools, including AI and automation, to improve both process and creative.
  • Be a bridge: Align creative with production—making sure ideas stay strong all the way to final delivery.
  • Guide with clarity: Balance bold thinking with honest communication across internal and external teams.
  • Pitch and grow: Contribute to new business opportunities and strengthen client relationships.
  • Shape team culture: Help foster an open, collaborative, and ego-free creative environment.


You Are:

  • A design-led creative who understands how words, visuals, and storytelling work together.
  • A thoughtful leader and mentor—someone who lifts others up while staying deep in the work.
  • Passionate about technology and craft, always looking for better, smarter ways to create.
  • Confident across formats—from content systems to social, campaigns, and experiential.
  • Comfortable with the realities of production: workflows, localisation, versioning, and timelines.
  • A clear communicator, able to translate creative ideas for both technical and non-creative audiences.
  • Empathetic and collaborative—driven by team success, not ego.


Why Join This Agency?

This is a chance to shape high-impact creative within a globally awarded production agency that’s redefining how creative and production work together. With access to world-class talent, tools, and a truly collaborative culture, you’ll have everything you need to do your best work—and help others do theirs.
