This description is a summary of our understanding of the job description. Click on 'Apply' button to find out more. Role Description Zeus Jones is looking for a midcareer or senior creative to join our brand innovation agency. This is a hands-on role for someone who knows how to turn sharp thinking into clear, compelling work—and help other creatives do the same. - You’re a strong storyteller and writer first, with real experience across brand, marketing, and content. - You have great taste and know when something’s working and when it’s not. - You’re comfortable guiding teams toward better outcomes without needing to be the loudest voice in the room. - You’re fluent in generative AI tools and genuinely excited about how they’re changing the future of brands. - This role sits at the intersection of strategy, storytelling, and execution. - You’ll help shape ideas, write a lot, lead creative development, and partner closely with strategists, designers, technologists, and clients. Qualifications - 5–15 years of experience in creative roles such as brand, advertising, content, editorial, experiential, or adjacent fields. - A strong portfolio of writing-led work (brand storytelling, campaigns, long-form, short-form, or all of the above). - Proven ability to guide other creatives and raise the quality of work around you. - Excellent taste and the confidence to stand behind your decisions. - Comfort working with ambiguity—loose briefs, evolving inputs, real-world constraints. - Hands-on experience using generative tools (especially AI) as part of your creative process. - A forward-looking point of view on how brands, creativity, and technology are evolving. - Strong collaboration skills and low ego—you care more about the work than the credit. Requirements - Write and shape brand narratives, campaign ideas, positioning, messaging, and content. - Move comfortably between big-picture storytelling and sharp marketing copy. - Edit ruthlessly—your own work and others’—to make ideas clearer, stronger, and more persuasive. - Help turn strategy into language people actually understand and care about. - Guide and mentor others creatively—helping them level up their thinking, craft, and confidence. - Lead creative workstreams or major portions of projects from early ideas through execution. - Give clear, constructive feedback that improves the work and makes strategic sense. - Help maintain a high bar for taste, clarity, and originality across the team. - Stay plugged into culture—not as a trend hunter, but as someone who understands how people think, talk, and behave. - Bring a point of view on what matters now (and what doesn’t). - Use cultural insights to make brand ideas feel relevant, human, and specific—not generic or “brand-y.” - Actively use generative tools (AI writing, concepting, synthesis, prototyping, etc.) in your creative process. - Think beyond efficiency: explore how these tools change what brands can be, not just how work gets made. - Help shape new ways of working that combine human judgment, taste, and creativity with machine capability. - Be a partner in defining what “good” looks like in an AI-influenced creative future. - Present work clearly and confidently to clients. - Help clients understand ideas, not just react to them. - Build trust by showing good judgment, curiosity, and follow-through. Benefits - Strong benefits. - Flexible time off. - The chance to work with smart, kind people on genuinely interesting problems. Company Description Zeus Jones is a brand innovation agency.
