We are working with a central-London based studio on a very interesting and exciting opportunity for an ACD or CD. If you are ready to guide, curate, mentor, collaborate with the team  - likely 20% hands on work - and have a breadth of experience, not just traditional advertising, read on. 
 
Key experience we are looking:
- To lead & manage, not do
- Demonstrated history of nurturing talent
- Have diverse or TTL experience helping brands re-position themselves
- Strategically minded  

The creative studio is in a mews house and it’s a pretty cool, low key space and feels 'creative' and culturally relevant and an atmosphere conducive to producing great work. 

You'll be heading up a small permanent team of 4 creatives and working with regular freelancers. Reporting to the ECD, but with trust and plenty of autonomy, we are looking for someone to inspire, curate ideas, lift up the team, be a confident communicator and barometer of brand but not need to have all the answers.

Working in the studio 3 days a week you will enjoy working and collaborating in person to develop relationships and the team.

This business is fairly unique in terms of the brands they work with and the opportunities to create outside of traditional campaigns. Along with the permanent team there's a diverse and rich community of 100s of cultural ambassadors, creators and makers whose ideas and insights can be accessed. It's how they stay on top of the ever changing cultural trends and how to reach people.

They like to work with brands 'with a purpose' and they do have a set of criteria/checklist about working with a new brand.
  
It's a business where everyone is very cool, very nice, clever and driven to produce the best, most relevant work. They are all invested in being 'interesting and interested', all focused on sharing and collaborating and being  entrepreneurial.

The CD will be someone with a shared spirit and sentiment - probably an ACD/early stage CD, wanting to create great work (not just good), liking people, wanting to nurture and develop the best ideas no matter who suggested it, someone invested in developing and lifting the team up and with a variety of experience and work in different media, not just TV.
