Creative Director (Art)

We are looking for a Creative Director with a background in Art Direction and experience in a creative agency; someone with creative judgment, an exceptional visual eye, and cultural sensitivity, who moves naturally between ideas, campaigns, branding, and digital content.

Specifically, you will fit very well if:

• You come from the world of advertising or creative agencies, have developed your career in art direction, and work in environments where the idea always rules.

• You combine conceptual and strategic thinking with a very powerful visual eye.

• You have the judgment to work with and provide direction across different visual disciplines: design, photography, typography, motion, audiovisual, and digital content, even if you do not necessarily execute all of them.

• You know how to build and convey a visual vision: finding references, defining aesthetic territories, and converting a creative intuition into a clear direction for the team.

• You enjoy big thinking, but also getting your hands dirty, exploring references, building visual proposals, and taking an idea through to excellent execution.

• You are obsessed with craft and the presentation of ideas, from the construction of the concept to the last detail of the execution.

• You have brilliant communication skills, you know how to argue and defend ideas, and you move with confidence in client presentations.

• You are fluent in English and Catalan.

• You always seek excellence and have a high quality standard; you care about detail and push ideas to take them one step further.

• You work with ownership and autonomy, taking responsibility for projects from start to finish and acting as if they were your own.

• You have the mental agility to handle changes, unforeseen events, or new challenges and quickly find the best way to move forward.

• You move with rhythm and dynamism, knowing how to prioritize, execute with speed, and organize yourself in a way that also facilitates the work of the rest of the team.

• You enjoy working in a collaborative way, sharing judgment, giving feedback, and helping collective work grow.

• You have curiosity and proactivity built-in; you like to question the established, you look for new references, you explore trends, and you add value beyond what is strictly your responsibility.

• You are an ambitious person who seeks to elevate the impact of work, detect opportunities, and continue growing professionally.

• You possess optimism and enthusiasm as part of your nature and approach challenges with a constructive and solution-oriented attitude.

• You have an updated cultural perspective and a constant curiosity to understand what is happening outside your own discipline.
