We're Looking for a Content Director
The role of Content Director is wide and varied, from ideating and liaising with clients as the copy lead to proofreading. You will be expected to help plan copy calendars, create project content and pitch content, as well as lead specific copy initiatives across multiple platforms and formats. You will drive copy flow and timelines, and be comfortable working with a team of writers, designers and photo editors, ensuring that all work is well written and on brief. You may hold a similar role in your current company; or be looking to take the next step.
You will be expected to actively contribute to pitches and presentations and add your own spark to creative content. A sense of humour and a can-do attitude is as important as an ability to multitask and never miss a deadline.
You will also have a sound knowledge of new media and how best to optimise content for different platforms and know how to use the latest technology for maximum impact.
With global clients in a host of different industries, from healthcare to finance, hospitality to gaming, each day offers unique possibilities.
You might be brainstorming a creative concept, helping to create 140 digital features in less than six weeks; working with designers to conceptualise and execute a video that engages whilst meeting regulatory approval; or working with department heads to create and deliver a multi-platform content campaign. You can be assured that no two days will ever be the same. Want a peek at some of our most exciting projects? Visit
