Creative Manager jobs in Durham, NC

About the Role 

Creatives single handedly have one of the hardest jobs at our company because they are responsible for developing ideas that have never been done before.  They command excellence both on and off screen by not only leading the creative team, but by partnering with the Lead Producer to build up the video from concept through post production.

If the candidate wants to exceed our expectations they will propel themselves into an exemplary leader by constantly pursuing knowledge and working endlessly to create the best video content in the world.  They will push people out of their comfort zones, to motivate them, and keep them on track. It is said that a brand is only as strong as its leaders, are you ready for the challenge?

What you’ll be doing: 

• Develop the framework for an original, high-performing viral video
• Collaborate with the Lead Producer on execution of an idea
• Lead writing sessions for unique ideas and situations 
• Pitch concepts and general video flow to the Head of Creative
