[Hiring] Creative Director Concept & Communication @WongDoody

Role Description

What you can expect:

• Own the big idea for a digital-first world: develop concepts, headlines, and communication platforms that start from digital thinking and extend across campaigns, brand communications, CRM, and OOH.
• Set the bar for language: sharpen taglines, headlines, and copy across all our work, and be the person the team turns to when a line isn't good enough yet.
• Lead and win pitches: shape distinctive creative territories for new business and existing accounts, and present them with conviction.
• Guide a creative team: mentor copywriters and art directors through concept, refinement, and production with a clear point of view.
• Partner with strategy: translate strategic thinking into ideas that are both culturally sharp and commercially relevant.
• Stay culturally switched on: bring fresh reference points, tone, and craft into brand communication.
• Think ahead of the format: know digital environments inside out, and bring a sharp, curious take on where technology — including AI — can push an idea further, without ever letting the tool replace the thinking.

Qualifications

• A background in copywriting (ideally) — art direction backgrounds are welcome too, as long as the idea and the words come first.
• 8+ years of experience in creative direction or concept development at agencies or studios, with a track record of leading integrated, cross-channel campaigns.
• A portfolio built on strong ideas: headlines, campaign platforms, and communication concepts that hold up across touchpoints — not just polished executions.
• Experience leading and winning pitches, with confident, persuasive presentation skills.
• A natural mentor for copywriters and art directors.
• Fluent German is required, a very good level of English is appreciated.
• Clear, strategic thinking, and the instinct for what makes communication culturally relevant, not just correct.
• Genuine curiosity for what's next: fluent in digital culture and platforms, and someone who sees GenAI and emerging tools as a creative sparring partner — applied with judgment, not by default.
• A strong point of view, brought with positivity, ambition, and empathy into every room.

Benefits

• Flexible working hours and 100% overtime compensation
• Work where it works for you: at home or in the office, or any mix you like
• Working for strong brands and clients we believe in
• 30 days' vacation per year
• Urban Sports Club
• Corporate Benefits
• Nice people in welcoming teams
