About the Role

Role Details

We are looking to increase our network of Creative Directors working in our Broadway studio on project specific, temporary contracts. This role is a key pillar in our multidimensional design work offering concept and narrative/storytelling direction to the interdisciplinary team. We have some great long-term relationships, but as our portfolio grows we're looking to build our networks and meet new collaborators that can co-deliver our next stage of projects.

We're interested to hear from people who actively work in project specific temporary contracts and/or freelance contracts. To manage expectations we are not offering permanent contacts for this role at this time.

As a Creative Director in our team/s you will have direct experience on design-based projects and significant experience collaborating directly with Designers across specialisms. You will be able to work regularly within New York - we're unable to consider applications from those working remotely for this opportunity.

Key Responsibilities

The essential functions include, but are not limited to the following:

  • Collaborate with the cross-disciplinary Design & Producing teams to transform ideas into high-quality, multidimensional experiences.
  • Attend client meetings, interpret briefs, build strong narratives and help shape achievable creative visions for a wide range of project contexts, including (but not limited to) creative treatments, storyboards, script writing, brief decks and style frames.
  • Be comfortable leading areas of projects and/or teams from conception through to execution, ensuring the creative vision meets the client brief, aligns with project objectives and sustains our internal high standards.
  • Work with Producers to manage timelines and project evaluation.
  • Create presentation materials for existing projects and new business as required.

Candidate Qualifications & Skills

Required

  • Approximately 12+ years direct experience as a Creative Director working in an interdisciplinary design context
  • A sharp eye for design excellence and detail
  • Ability to design in a wide range of styles and platforms
  • Demonstrable experience as a natural storyteller - you approach visual design through the lens of the narrative
  • Previous experience leading creative visions
  • Experience responding to client briefs and playing a key role in bringing ambitious design ideas to life

Desirable

  • Experience in more than one design specialism within Journey's portfolio such as media production, installation, architectural & exhibition design, CGI, fabrication and/or live performance
  • A network of partnerships to bring to the company - both strategic and/or creative

Contract: Contract Types & Salaries vary based on the role, with the below as a guide. Freelance rates to be discussed on a case by case basis.

Location: This role is based within our Broadway Studio. We value regular in-person collaboration because we think it leads to the best creative work however hybrid working is available around project commitments.

Application: Please share a Resume, a cover letter outlining how your experience meets the required and desirable criteria of this listing and a Portfolio of your experience - indicating the specific role you played in any projects being shown. Due to the clear design experience required we're unable to accept applications without a portfolio.

Work Authorization: For this particular opportunity we are only able to consider applications from those with pre-existing work authorization in the US.

Deadline: Wednesday 4th November 10am EST

Interviews: Introductory meetings with our team are anticipated from w/c 9th November.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
