    • Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with marketing, tech, and data teams to integrate CRM insights into personalized content creation and campaign optimization, enhancing engagement and conversion.
    • Culture of Creativity and Continuous Learning: Cultivate an environment that encourages creativity, experimentation, and ongoing professional development among team members.
    • Storytelling and Visualization: Craft compelling narratives and visual representations to effectively communicate and present concepts to both internal teams and clients.
    • Research and Innovation: Stay at the forefront of creative technology advancements, conducting research, and exploring new tools, platforms, and techniques to enhance the team's capabilities.
    • Project Collaboration: Collaborate closely with designers, developers, data planners, strategists, and other team members to ensure seamless integration of ideas, technologies, and artistic elements.
    • Client Interaction: Engage in client interactions, actively seeking their input and feedback, while effectively communicating complex creative technology concepts in a clear and relatable manner.
    • End-to-end Creative Process Oversight: Oversee the entire creative process, ensuring projects meet the highest standards of quality, and are delivered on time, and within budget, while achieving or surpassing performance goals.

    Requirements:

    • Proven experience as a Creative Director or in a similar creative leadership role, with a portfolio that demonstrates a passion for merging creative with technology.
    • Strong background in Art Direction, Design, or Copywriting, with a deep understanding of digital marketing landscapes and CRM strategies.
