ABOUT THE AGENCY:
David&Goliath is an agency that adheres to one simple philosophy: Brave. To be brave, to inspire people and brands to take on their goliaths. To create lasting impact that the world can feel and truly embrace. This is our purpose and for over two decades, we have never wavered from it. We are not made for everyone. We are made for the few who believe that purpose isn't just a business proposition, but a way of life. And for those who believe we can achieve the unthinkable, together. David&Goliath is a collaborative, empathetic, and team-oriented culture that believes in taking on challenges that others might walk away from. Because, the truth is, nobody ever became great without first being brave. 

We are looking for an Associate Creative Director who is socially and digitally savvy, with the ability to both create standout work and lead junior teams. In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with strategy, comms, account, and client partners to concept, craft, and execute campaigns that break through Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Snapchat, TikTok, and beyond.

This is a hands-on creative leadership role. You’ll be expected to generate ideas, build decks, comp work for presentations, and carry projects through production and post — while also mentoring junior talent and inspiring outside collaborators, creators, and influencers.

If you’re a strong communicator who thrives in fast-paced environments, has your finger on the pulse of social trends, and can take projects from concept to final execution, this could be the role for you.

Please note: This role requires someone to be onsite in the D&G office 2 days per week — Tuesdays and Thursdays. Some on-set production and occasional travel may also be required.


Responsibilities:
  • Concept, develop, and present creative ideas across social + digital channels in partnership with strategy, account, and comms teams.
  • Lead and mentor junior creatives, providing feedback and direction that elevates the work.
  • Collaborate with editors, animators, VFX artists, and music houses — clearly articulating direction to ensure creative vision is realized.
  • Build dynamic presentation decks and animated storyboards using Adobe Creative Suite, After Effects, Midjourney, and Premiere.
  • Guide in-house and external productions, including casting, location scouting, wardrobe, production design, and shoot execution.
  • Manage influencer and creator collaborations, including working with influencer agencies to ensure authentic, engaging content.
  • Ensure all content is optimized for each platform’s ad formats and best practices (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Snapchat, and TikTok).
  • Stay ahead of cultural trends, social moments, and platform innovations — proactively applying them to client work.
  • Balance creative excellence with tight timelines, adapting quickly to fast-moving projects.


    • Qualifications:
  • Qualifications:
  • 7–10 years of experience in creative roles within advertising, social, or digital agencies.
  • Proven experience concepting and producing social-first campaigns for major brands (lottery, gaming, or entertainment categories a plus).
  • Expert-level knowledge of Midjourney and Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, Premiere).
  • Experience with storyboarding, comping, and presentation design.
  • Familiarity with 3D tools such as Cinema 4D or Blender is a plus (not required).
  • Strong production experience — from pre-pro through shoot and post.
  • Experience briefing, collaborating with, and managing outside vendors (editors, animators, music, VFX, influencer agencies).
  • Strong understanding of platform-specific content formats and best practices across Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Snapchat, and TikTok.
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and leadership skills.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working under accelerated timelines.


    • What Makes the Candidate Successful:
  • Ability to generate big, platform-native ideas while still sweating the details of execution.
  • Deep understanding of social culture and trends, with an eye for how brands can authentically participate.
  • A collaborative spirit — able to work seamlessly with internal teams, clients, and outside partners.
  • Comfort leading both the creative vision and the executional details.
  • Ability to inspire and manage influencers, creators, and collaborators.
  • Passion for pushing creative forward in fresh, relevant, and culturally resonating ways.


    • Please note: This role requires someone to be onsite in the D&G office 2 days per week — Tuesdays and Thursdays.
