Creative Director/ Director Digital Creation (m/f/x)

Description

Creative work is changing fast. Are you ready to lead that shift, not just react to it? We’re looking for a Creative Director to lead our Digital Creative Unit and raise the bar on our creative output - across digital marketing and communication projects. AI is changing how creative work gets done, but the human behind the idea still matters most. We want someone with a strong, informed point of view on where this is heading, who isn’t afraid to push back when needed. If you’re ready to hold your team and yourself to a high standard and shape the future of creative work at VI - not just manage it - we want to hear from you.

What you will do:

• Lead the Digital Creative Unit, both professionally and as their manager - fostering the growth of the team and individual talents

• Shape how the team works with AI - bring your own point of view on pace and direction, and help the team use it to sharpen their craft

• Develop and shape strong creative ideas, and guide the team in bringing them to life

• Connect strategy and creation in daily work

• Set clear expectations and hold your ground in conflicts when needed

• Convincingly present creative concepts to (potential) clients, communicating the value and impact of the ideas

Requirements

What we expect:

• Experience as Creative Director, Head of Digital, Creative Strategist or similar, in a digital agency environment with a focus on digital marketing and communication

• A genuine point of view on AI and how it changes creative work

• A proven track record of strong, boundary-pushing creative thinking, paired with clear strategic reasoning

• Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to inspire and motivate a team

• Conflict ability - you can name expectations clearly and stand by them

• Leadership experience is a plus

• Fluent English is required; fluent German is an advantage; based in Austria is an advantage
