Senior Concept Creative (Copy, Strategy, Art)

Overview

Join to apply for the Senior Concept Creative (Copy, Strategy, Art) role at oktopods Agency GmbH .

oktopods is a multi-disciplinary digital age creative wonder house. We merge creativity, technology, and data to create bold ideas that break through screens, pitches, and expectations.

We’re seeking a Concept Creative (Copy, Strategy, Art) — native English only (American or British). If English isn’t your mother tongue, this isn’t your role. The nuance, rhythm, and instinct of your writing must feel as natural as breathing — because your words will define how global brands speak.

You are a concept-driven storyteller who moves between copywriting, strategy, and visual thinking with ease. You can turn insights into bold, culture-moving ideas that feel smart, human, and unforgettable.

Responsibilities

• Develop campaign concepts that connect brand strategy, storytelling, and design
• Write copy and campaign ideas at a world-class level — sharp, human, and effortless
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment with business objectives and brand identity
• Present and sell ideas internally and to clients with confidence
• Contribute to strategic discussions and refine creative briefs
• Stay ahead of cultural and creative trends, especially the kind that win hearts and awards (Cannes Lions experience is a big plus)
• Push ideas beyond the expected, toward the kind of work that gets noticed and remembered

Qualifications

• Native English speaker (American or British) — mandatory
• Extensive experience (5+ years) in creative or advertising agencies
• Proven background in conceptual, copy-led campaign work
• Portfolio that demonstrates storytelling, wit, and craft across platforms
• Strategic understanding of brand and communication design
• Digital fluency — social, film, experiential, and beyond
• Experience collaborating in multi-disciplinary teams
• Clear understanding of the AI tools, their territories, weaknesses and strengths
• Production experience and understanding in both traditional and CGI environments
• Award-winning work or potential to deliver such work
• Strong expertise in branding, storytelling, and communication strategies
• Excellent collaboration skills, with experience working cross-functionally with internal and external stakeholders

Your Superpowers

• Strategic mind | You love the “why” behind ideas. You connect audience insight and brand purpose into work that earns attention.
• Story architect | You build meaning. You can take a brand truth and craft it into a story world that feels both smart and effortless.
• Visual thinker | You don’t just write, you see. Every line lives with an image, tone, and motion in your head.
• Presentation powerhouse | You can command a room. You present with clarity, confidence, and charisma. You control your decks.
• Digital native | You move across platforms and know how storytelling shifts from social to manifesto.
• AI-enhanced creative | You use AI as an amplifier, understanding its strengths and weaknesses and how to direct it effectively.
• Craft maniac | You edit until every syllable hits right and aim for lines that make people say, "that’s it."

Benefits

• In-house creative training with outside guests and award-winning mentoring program
• International creative projects with bold brands and brave clients
• The opportunity to work abroad (on our expense) for short periods is actively supported
• Real creative ownership, your ideas shape campaigns, not just fill decks
• An international team on two continents
• A creative environment that encourages experimentation, risk-taking, and excellence
• Office dogs, kicker tournaments, and zero unnecessary meetings
• Multitude of varied tasks and lots of room for growth
• A young and growing company where you can build and lead your own creative team
• A relaxed yet excellence-driven environment, with quick decisions and a highly skilled team

Job Details

We’re not hiring for a seat-filler. We’re hiring a storm. Someone who can see around corners, turn ideas into action, and chaos into clarity. If you’ve got a portfolio full of boldness, weirdness, cleverness, or beautiful rebellion — we want to see it. Static, moving, broken, brilliant, bring it on. Let’s build the kind of work that gets screens paused, hearts racing, and clients saying “Wait, we can do that?”
