Job purpose

You and your teammate are a senior creative with a proven track record, ideally complemented by a few prestigious awards.

You’ll bring at least 5 years of agency experience and the ability to sell your ideas with flair, backing them up with strategic insights, trends, and data to create memorable advertising.

What you’ll do

• Deliver standout campaign ideas and creative concepts for a diverse range of brands.
• Conceptualize, pitch, and bring your creative ideas to life.
• Focus on digital to unlock tomorrow’s possibilities.
• Approach creativity with a strategic mindset, incorporating cultural trends, data, and insights.
• Collaborate with our digital, media, and social experts.
• Move beyond TV-first thinking to create content for 360-degree campaigns that work across all touchpoints.

What you bring

• Extensive experience as a Creative in an agency with a strong portfolio showcasing integrated campaigns and original storytelling.
• Native Dutch speaker with excellent English skills, capable of working with Dutch and international brands.
• Ability to use humor in campaigns, creating engaging and memorable content.
• A proactive mindset with a small agency mentality with a drive to take initiative, lead projects, and deliver results without waiting for direction.
• Keen interest in digital trends and social media.

We offer

• A flexible, hybrid working policy (2-3 days from the office, depending on location) and the opportunity to work from abroad for 13 weeks a year.
• 24 vacation days per year and the possibility to buy an unlimited number of extra vacation days.
• DEPT®/YOU Learning Menu and DEPT®/YOU Special Programs. Develop your skills with courses and programs tailored to your needs.
• Stay happy and healthy with a contribution to your health through the OpenUp platform, gym and wellness discounts, and healthy lunches at the office.
• Get a discount on your lease bike and ride in style. You can also enjoy hassle-free commutes with an NS Business Card.
• A reputation for doing good. DEPT® has been a Certified B Corp® since 2021, has been named a Great Place To Work since 2022 in the Netherlands and named ‘Agency of the Year’ at both The Lovies and The Webby Awards.
• Awesome clients. Whether big, small, local or global — at DEPT® you’ll get the opportunity to work with all of them. And we celebrate all of our successes together!
