We are the next-gen creative platform, working at the collision of people, commerce, creativity and technology – purpose-built for the world’s most ambitious brands, delivering content at the speed of culture.

About the team

Our Content Solutions team is the CGI and content engine of the agency – a specialist group of art directors, CGI artists, retouchers and producers who create photorealistic D product and packaging imagery for the world’s biggest CPG brands. We turn physical products into pixel-perfect renders, building the assets, systems and libraries that power campaigns across retail, ecommerce, social, digital and beyond.

A multidisciplinary group of makers and problem-solvers, we pair technical craft with sharp creative judgement to deliver work at the top tier of the industry.

Position Overview

As the Associate Creative Director, D / CGI, you will report to the Creative Director, Innovation as part of the Content Solutions team. You’ll lead CGI Art Directors and artists to creatively solve clients’ business problems, ensuring that photorealistic product and packaging work brings the strategy to life – successfully, on brief and on time. You will need to showcase an ability to work within teams, as well as demonstrate the independence and resourcefulness demanded by an agile and highly dynamic agency environment.

A strong communicator, you are able to present and sell ideas internally and to clients with passion and energy.

The ACD embodies Marks’ vision of can-do positivity, agility in approach, and belief in the power of co-creation – ensuring we deliver the best solution against each brief. You use strong judgement and analytical skills to drive the creative process from early concepts to final photoreal render, delivering beyond client expectations while owning the CGI quality bar across your accounts.

You are responsible for building and growing your team to deliver against increasing client needs and demand – staffing, structuring, and empowering CGI project teams to deliver high-caliber work. You partner with client services and operations teams to establish workflow processes, schedule resources across the CGI pipeline, and ensure timelines are met.
