### **Experience Without Limits** **Come shape the future of brand experience.** **At Jack Morton, we design and build**head-turning, smile-inducing, impact-driving brand experiences that redefine what experiential marketing can achieve. We help our clients **unlock the full value of experiences** by turning bold ideas into meaningful connections. **That takes a team that's bold, curious, and acts as one.** We build on each other's ideas, challenge conventions, and show up for one another every day. Here, you'll do your best work, grow quickly, and partner across clients, disciplines, and global teams to bring new ideas to life. This is a place where curiosity drives what’s next, boldness raises the bar, and every win is shared. Where ownership is expected, egos are left at the door, and the work reflects the passion and talent of the people behind it. Experience without limits—in your work, your growth, and your impact. As an **Associate Creative Director**, you are the creative engine responsible for coming up with big, brave ideas, defining the core creative direction, and shaping brand narratives rooted in solid strategy and client objectives. You don’t just execute a brief - you shape what the brief becomes. You take business objectives, and strategic insights, and transform them into narrative frameworks and compelling, story-driven experiences; where every touchpoint, from environment and content to spatial flow, is an intentional expression of one central concept. Reporting to the Group Creative Director in Singapore, you come with a background in Art Direction or Copywriting, an experiential mindset, and a genuine hunger for work that moves people. **What You’ll Be Doing** - **Craft and Lead Experiential Narratives:** Generate, write, and articulate overarching creative concepts that tie in with strategic insights, solve client briefs and align with business goals across mediums. - **Build Story-Driven Experiences**: Expand these narratives into all touch-points, from spatial environments, prints, venue flow, and hospitality to content, programming, and digital - and working with the design team to visualise these experiences. - **Pitch & Champion the Vision:** Present high-level concepts and narrative arcs to senior client stakeholders with authority and conviction: selling the strategic *why* behind the creative idea to win hearts and budgets. - **Direct Narrative Integrity from Pitch to Delivery:** Maintain creative stewardship throughout the process, ensuring the core story and creative vision remain uncompromised from initial presentation to live execution. - **Infuse Cultural Relevance:** Stay ahead of cultural, design, and technological trends, weaving modern narrative hooks and innovative conceptual frameworks into client briefs. - **Cross-Functional Collaboration:** Working with other teams to bring the experiential vision to life, on brand and on budget. **Growing People & Culture** - Oversee junior creatives and freelancers across local and global teams, fostering an environment where high standards, ambition, and craft are celebrated. - Contribute to a creative culture defined by ambition, rigor, and genuine pride in the quality of the work. - Embody Jack Morton's values of creativity, collaboration, and inclusivity in every interaction with clients and colleagues. **Active Participation in Jack Morton's Community & Culture** - Embody and advocate for Jack Morton's values of creativity, collaboration, and inclusivity in all interactions with colleagues, clients, and partners. - Help foster a supportive and inspiring workplace by participating in team-building initiatives, office events, and agency-wide programs. - Engage in learning opportunities: from training sessions to thought leadership discussions to stay informed about industry trends and best practices. - Share knowledge, insights, and experience to strengthen the agency's collective expertise and cultivate a culture of continuous improvement. - Protect the agency culture that makes Jack a great place to work. **The person we are looking for** - 5-7 years of agency-side experience in experiential marketing or brand experience, with a track record of leading creative for experiences from concept through execution. - A portfolio that demonstrates genuine creative range, including narrative-led experiential work that is as sophisticated in concept as it is in execution. - Proven experience leading large, complex programs while maintaining the creative vision from pitch through physical delivery. - Fluency across both 2D and 3D creative disciplines. You think about environment, materials, lighting, and scenic design with the same instinct you bring to graphic design and content. - The ability to present ideas compellingly. You can sell a concept, not just show one. - Hands-on across the full creative process: from ideation and presentation through to execution. - Working across and with other time zones. - Excellent time management; comfortable juggling multiple projects. - An unwavering curiosity for creative and cultural innovation. - Fluent in written and spoken English. - Based in Singapore. **Please include a link to your portfolio in your application.** **Last but not least, we believe in diversity, equity and inclusion.** Jack Morton is an equal opportunity employer; we strongly value diversity at our companies.
