Tinker (the art-directory-type)

Thinkerbell is looking for an amazing Tinker (Art Director) to join our team of Thinkers and Tinkers in Auckland . How you’ll create measured magic What the hell is a Tinker? We’re glad you asked. Basically, you’re a creative person in the world of advertising. You may have a background in words, or production, or design, or filmmaking, or art direction (or all of the above) – we don’t mind. A Tinker pulls things apart and puts them back together again. They love playing with ideas and bringing them to life. They fiddle and poke and prod until their ideas are working just right. They love coming up with ideas and they love getting those ideas out into the world for everyone else to enjoy. The task at hand As a Tinker , you will have creative, writing, or visual skills (or preferably all three), a folio/website that shows potential and smart thinking and enough energy and ambition and willingness to give this a red hot crack. You’re fizzing with creative energy. You absolutely love the creative industry we work in, you have shown signs that you’ll be amazing, but your best work is still ahead of you. You will be naturally inquisitive with strong attention to detail and enjoy working alongside a Thinker and within a squad to get things done. You’ll be solutions oriented, able to form solid relationships with clients and peers, and you’re not afraid to have an opinion. You’ll have three big things to do: Lots of creative thinking : You love coming up with ideas, and solving problems through creativity. You’re able to have lots of ideas and you have a basic level of understanding around what makes a good idea. Taking creative leadership : You’re willing to be directed and guided as you learn what needs to be done to an idea to shape it the right way. Act like a creative, think like a client : Your ideas are creative, but they’re also solving the problem, or answering the needs of the client.
