Job Description

Mustache, part of the Edelman network, is looking for an Executive Creative Director to create groundbreaking, social-first and earned creative campaigns for one of the world's greatest tech brands. You’re someone who sees cultural and social trends before they’re trends and knows how to conceptualize, create, and put things out into the world at the speed of culture and drive attention.

You’ll be joining a diverse group of creatives that shift culture through work like Good Humor x RZA’s new take on the ice cream jingle, the eBay Wear ‘Em Out Store that rewarded shoppers for wearing their sneakers, Perdue Beer Can Chicken Beer (the first beer brewed specifically for beer can chicken) and Taco Bell Cantinas All-ages retirement community. If you’re looking to create ideas that end up in the NY Times, The Verge, and Reddit, or winning some of the industry's biggest awards like the Webby’s and One Show, this is the right agency for you.

We’re looking for a creative that has a passion for pop culture, technology and social media. Someone who is just as comfortable thinking of earned ideas as they are thinking of the kind of content you want to see in your feed. From TikToks to Tweets, we want someone who can lead a team from the concept to client presentation, and quickly to people’s feeds, and not be afraid to roll their sleeves up along the way. We’re not just looking to make filler content, we want to make fun, witty, unexpected work that gets noticed.

You will be joining a team diverse of creatives who are collaborative, curious, smart, and kind, and we’re looking for a leader that will continue to foster that.
