WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH

Brand Creative is the Art of Storytelling. We are the storytellers. We are the voice of Nike’s heart & soul. It's about telling powerful, meaningful stories across the entire brand ecosystem, leveraging all existing and new platforms to inspire, enable and engage athletes*, while driving brand distinction and business impact. We aim to make people feel and help them do sport on a daily basis. A key part of this team is Creative Production – the team that works to drive our creative thinking into tangible outcomes for our consumers.

Day-to-day you’ll work with a team of designers, producers and communication experts. Beyond this core team, you will also work a lot with external creatives – overseeing the commissioning of various work across multiple disciplines. Within the broader Marketing function, you’ll be required to collaborate with your counterparts across many different teams to help deliver creative in accordance to our Brand Standards.

Aside from the day-to-day you’ll work alongside production leads to drive functional excellence making sure the team gets regular opportunities to learn, inspire and share knowledge with each other.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We’re looking for someone with a wealth of production and project management experience.  You will have production and project management experience across various mediums, including (but not exclusive to) digital, out-of-home, broadcasting, and physical experiences. You are passionate, exceptionally organized and enjoy finding solutions to whatever the challenge. A creative thinker with outstanding communication skills, you thrive under pressure, embracing change and knowing when and where to be flexible.

Whether you’re managing a workstream delivering assets en masse, on set managing the production of a shoot, commissioning an illustrator, or working with an architect to build a space, you don’t get phased by the unknown – but rather energized by the challenge of learning as you go.

When it comes to communication, you digest, edit and circulate the most important information clearly and effectively to stakeholders in teams across the business. However complex the project, you always remain clear on priorities and are not afraid to empower your team members. You’re a master collaborator who knows how to get the best out of everyone. You enjoy sharing your knowledge and advising others around you, proactively helping the team develop their skills and our creative output. When things change direction or obstacles appear, you are not afraid to challenge the brief and speak up to land on a new solution.

WHAT YOU BRING TO NIKE

  • A creative thinker with experience commissioning creative agencies and talent.

  • Proven experience managing complex timelines, budgets and deliverables.

  • Live action production skills and experience.

  • An understanding of creative disciplines and an interest in cultivating a broad network of external partners to elevate our creative output.

  • Excellent interpersonal skills and strong team player, able to develop productive relationships with cross-functional teams and senior leads, with a proactive and collaborative approach to working through challenges and ambiguity.

  • Forward-thinker with solutions-oriented mindset and entrepreneurial spirit.

  • Ability to work in a matrix environment with multiple business functions.

  • A passion for creativity and committed to staying up to date with current and future technology.

  • Travel 10% of the time.

WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON

Day-to-day, you’ll sit as part of the Studio, focusing on managing multiple workstreams across multiple mediums, delivering premium and inspirational stories and experiences for the consumer. Working within a multi-disciplinary team, you’ll work collaboratively to execute against the brief, delivering on time and within budget. From project to project, you’ll commission and manage multiple creative partners, from world-renowned agencies to up-and-coming artists and creators. You’ll work end-to-end on projects, involved from the moment the brief reaches our team through to final execution – whether that’s a suite of digital assets, an event, or a brand anthem for key consumer moments in Nike’s calendar.
