We’re looking for a Creative Director who can do exactly that → shape bold ideas, tell the story that sells them, and lead — not dictate — teams to bring them to life.
This role sits inside our GROWTH & NEXT Pods, working across some of the most ambitious and creatively open territory in the industry:
- Experiential environments — brand worlds, immersive spaces, permanent and touring installations
- Themed entertainment — narrative environments, attraction concepts, destination experiences
- Brand activations — moments that earn attention, build belief, and convert audiences into advocates
- Interactive and technology-enabled work — experiences where the audience participates, not just observes
You’ll lead creative across the full arc: from early pitch and concept development through to final execution. That means being as sharp in a competitive pitch room as you are on a build site walkthrough.
Responsibilities

This isn’t a role for someone who only directs from a distance.
We want someone who can get into the work — who can open a file, shape a frame, and contribute meaningfully to what’s on screen or in the room. Specifically, we’re looking for hands-on fluency in:
- Graphic and/or digital design — Visual systems, spatial graphics, concept visualization, motion
- 3D — Environmental modeling, spatial concept development, real-time rendering
Both is exceptional. One is the floor. Either way, your hands-on capability should show up in how you direct, how you review, and how quickly you help a team find the right answer.
AI is everywhere.
Clients use it. Teams use it. Partners use it. So do we.
The real question isn’t whether you use AI — it’s how you use it to gain an advantage.
We want to understand:
- How AI expands your creative exploration
- How it helps you uncover insights others miss
- How it strengthens ideas instead of flattening them
- How it accelerates thinking without outsourcing judgment
In short: How does AI make you a better Creative Director, not just a faster one? (or a lazier one.)
There are fundamentals every Creative Director here must bring.
-
- Great Work — A portfolio of ideas that live beyond the slide deck. Work that exists in environments, systems, installations, or interactions. Show us things that were actually built.
- Pitch Leadership — You know how to shape and sell ideas in competitive environments. You understand what converts opportunity into business — and you can carry a room.
- Storytelling — You craft narratives that capture attention, build belief, and move clients to act. From concept decks to client presentations, your work reads and performs.
- Team Leadership — You elevate the people around you. Clear direction, strong taste, and the generosity to help others do their best work. Not a gatekeeper. A multiplier.
- Taste & Clarity of Vision — You understand the difference between novelty and meaning, spectacle and substance. You push for both.
Requirements
~1 min readExperience across two or more of the following areas will set you apart:
- Experiential marketing and brand activations at scale
- Themed entertainment, attraction design, or narrative environment development
- Permanent or touring installations
- Technology-forward or interactive experience design
- Cultural moments; festivals, tentpoles, world’s fairs, fan experiences
We’re less interested in a single lane and more interested in someone who has genuine range and the creative ambition to push further in each direction.
