Artistic Director

Company Description

At Publicis, we like to do things differently and redefine the rules of the game. To achieve this, we have surrounded ourselves with people who work WITH us, not FOR us. Here, there are motivated individuals who never let their team down, who roll up their sleeves when necessary, and who celebrate successes loudly. For us, attitude is as important as talent, and oversized egos have no place.

We are not afraid of failure because, for us, it doesn't exist. We try all sorts of things, and if the result isn't good, we learn and start over. To align with this philosophy, we need responsible people who want to grow, flourish, and create advertising that makes consumers want to love it again.

If you are a team player known for your flexibility and your ability to create engaging stories, we are made to get along, and we offer you a position as a digital artistic director.
