Social-first. Content-led. Creative by instinct. An independent creative agency is looking for a Social Creative Lead to help shape the next phase of its creative output across a growing portfolio of global brands. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who understands how modern brands earn attention, build relevance and create meaningful engagement through social, content and culture. Initially focused on a major global healthcare brand, you'll lead the development of social-first campaigns, content platforms and always-on creative programmes that move beyond trend chasing and deliver genuine audience impact.

The Opportunity

  • Lead creative development across a flagship global client account.

  • Develop social-first campaign ideas, content ecosystems and long-term creative platforms.
  • Create work designed for how audiences actually consume, engage with and share content.
  • Present and sell ideas confidently to both internal teams and senior clients.
  • Help elevate the creative standards, culture and output of a growing agency.
  • Work closely with strategy, account management, production and fellow creatives to bring ideas to life.

Your Background

  • Experience within a social, content, integrated or creative agency environment.
  • Currently operating as a Senior Creative, Creative Lead or Associate Creative Director.
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating social-first thinking across multiple formats and channels.
  • Excellent writing, storytelling and presentation skills.
  • Able to translate insight, research and complex subject matter into engaging creative ideas.
  • Strong understanding of social platforms, audience behaviour and content ecosystems.
  • Comfortable leading creative conversations with senior stakeholders.
  • Curious, collaborative and commercially aware.

Why Apply?
