If you have a passion for golf and a talent for creative concepting, join Dunlop Sports as an integral leader on the Creative Team. You’ll lead projects and work within them to own and hone our voice, style, and brand as Associate Creative Director.
Reporting directly to the Creative Director, you’ll deliver concepts and messaging for impactful advertising campaigns that excite golfers, drive sales, and grow brand loyalty. You’ll work in all mediums, including TV broadcast, print, web and digital, as a multifunctional leader and contributor. You’ll be an integral part of shaping and creating our brand voices. You will also dive deep into every product story, developing the ins and outs of how we communicate features and benefits across the catalog.
You aren’t just a leader but also a doer. You can roll up your sleeves to get work done and effectively delegate to both in-house and third-party teams.
Your must-haves will include strategic thinking, conceptual competency, strong writing sensibilities, and a high level of craftsmanship across all media, including video, web, digital, and print. You must be hands-on when it comes to delivering extraordinary work and mentoring teams to do the same. You must be comfortable writing long-form catalogs and articles, as well as short-form advertising for web and broadcast.
You’ll collaborate with our Creative Director, Copywriters, and Art Director, while fielding feedback from senior leaders, executives, and department colleagues. You’ll also work closely with third party production partners, playing a key role in planning and executing large-scale video productions for our various brands and campaigns.
You must possess the ability to tackle novel challenges, both with and without precedent or structure. You should also have informed opinions on processes, time budgeting, and resource allocation for complex creative projects. Excellent analytical, critical thinking, project management, and problem recognition, avoidance, and resolution skills are critical.
You should also be comfortable presenting and defending work amongst stakeholders. With experience and intuition, you know how to find consensus without sacrificing quality or effectiveness.
