Creative Director

Company: Intellias

We are looking for a Creative Director to join our customer’s Global Digital Marketing team through Intellias on a staff augmentation basis.
As the senior creative voice inside an in-house Creative Factory, you will set the quality standard for one of the world’s leading agri-science companies – shaping work that reaches growers, distributors, and agricultural communities across more than 90 markets.
You will bridge creative ambition and business reality: translating strategy into compelling visual output, directing a cross-functional team, and leading AI integration into everyday creative workflows. If you believe in-house creative teams can outperform external agencies and want to prove it at global scale, this role is for you.
Our customer is a global leader in agricultural innovation, operating across more than 100 countries and serving millions of farmers. Its Global Digital Marketing function is building an in-house Creative Factory – a full-service internal agency delivering campaigns, key visuals, video, digital assets, UI/UX, and more across every market and brand.
The Creative Factory’s goal is to become the agency of choice: faster, smarter, and more brand-aligned than any external partner. The Creative Director reports directly to the Global Marketing Creative Operations lead and collaborates daily with a Creative Strategist and an Operations Manager, together forming the leadership core of this growing team. The scope is global, the audience is diverse, and the mandate is clear – raise the bar on every piece of creative that carries the brand.
