Senior Creative Director Copy, XCM EU

Amazon XCM is seeking a Senior Creative Director (Copy) with exceptional conceptual and copywriting craft to co-lead the EU Brand/XCM creative pod. This role is the creative voice for all copy-led outputs - from TV and OLV scripts to integrated campaign concepts - and forms one half of a senior creative partnership that drives the standard for EU Brand Retail and XCM campaigns.

You will work both strategically and tactically determining the creative strategy and where to simplify or extend solutions for the best outcome. You will work independently with limited guidance often in situations where goals insights and strategic decisions are undefined. You will synthesise existing customer research and data to develop campaign ideas performing additional research as needed and may determine underlying customer needs to define the creative direction.

Working in a co-CD partnership with the Senior Creative Director (Art) you will bring a unified creative vision to Brand/XCM work - from initial brief response through to final delivery.
