WE ARE TOMMY, ARE YOU?

Are you the visual storyteller type whose purpose in life is coming up with great creative? Do you love a pitch and creating innovative, channel-first campaigns? Do you have a great portfolio of work in the social space and a real desire to win awards?

If so, you might be the best person for this job. We are looking for a passionate and innovative middleweight Creative Art Director to join our talented global team in our London office. You must share our love for great creative, our passion for innovative technology, a fascination for popular culture, and a commitment to delivering successful and award-winning campaigns for the likes of Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, Southampton F.C., Tesco Mobile, William Grant & Sons, and Adobe.

We search out the most talented individuals we can find, but a positive attitude and a passion for seeing great work through as part of the team are qualities on which we won’t compromise. A Creative Art Director for Tommy will envisage cutting-edge digital ideas and shepherd them through the creative process to dazzling results.
