Midweight Creative Team
Job Description
Summary
Ideas are the beating heart of all work we create at Stereo and we’re looking for a dynamic and inspiring Creative Team to help drive concept generation across everything we touch — from our existing clients to new business opportunities as well as self-driven initiatives.
You will be a key component in how we generate and amplify original ideas in the studio, so you’ll need to be a highly motivated duo who are able to think both large and small and able to spot an opportunity in any brief. You will be bursting with memorable, attention grabbing and emotionally relevant concepts plus an ability to convincingly explain deeper thinking and how it aligns to Strategy.
We work across a number of different sectors and project types at Stereo, so you’ll need to demonstrate creative flexibility and confidence with a variety of clients and audiences — from OOH lifestyle campaigns, to digital activations for fintech brands, experiential ideas for major streaming platforms and one-off stunts for the tech sector. Inspiring others will be your bread and butter.
You will be socially aware with a hunger for big thinking and challenging the norm. Excellent communication skills and a natural aptitude towards understanding brand positioning, authenticity and cultural cues are a must. You will be confident enough to share your ideas but perceptive enough to know when to encourage others to share theirs. You will be strategic in your approach, organised and able to develop concepts to suit the expectations of the client.
You will be able to balance copywriting abilities with visual thinking and push each project to develop stunning solutions for both.
We maintain an ego-free environment at Stereo and approaching all feedback positively and collaboratively is a key aspect of how we operate.
