• Monitor performance and provide feedback loops.
Creative Operations & Systems
• Build and maintain scalable workflows for ideation, approvals, and delivery.
• Design briefing tools, rituals, and reviews that raise creative standards.

Creative DNA & Development

Strategy & Growth
• Translate business goals into creative strategies and vice versa.

• Help shape the long-term evolution of BRS’s creative capabilities.
Experience
• 10+ years in creative or strategy-driven roles in agencies, studios, or production environments.
• Experience leading cross-functional teams and managing diverse creative disciplines.
• Background in experiential, digital, or spatial projects is highly valued.
