The Role
 Are you a visionary Creative Director who can move hearts, shift culture, and build brands that live far beyond the campaign? An international, award-winning creative agency (think global network calibre – WPP / Forsman-style ambition) is expanding its footprint in Riyadh and is looking for a world-class Creative Director to lead the charge. This is a rare opportunity to shape the creative narrative of some of the most exciting brands in Saudi Arabia and the wider region, at a time when the Kingdom is redefining what’s possible in culture, entertainment, and innovation. The Role • You will be the creative heartbeat of the Riyadh office – leading concept development, elevating the craft, and inspiring teams to deliver work that is strategically sharp, culturally resonant, and globally recognized. • Lead and own the creative vision across key accounts – from big brand platforms to integrated 360 campaigns. • Partner closely with Strategy, Account Management, and Production to deliver ideas that are both brave and effective. • Champion world-class storytelling across film, digital, social, experiential, and emerging platforms. • Mentor, develop, and inspire a multidisciplinary creative team (art, copy, design, content) to do the best work of their careers. • Present confidently to senior clients, defending bold ideas with clarity, data, and cultural insight. • Ensure the work is not only beautiful, but on-brief, on-brand, and commercially impactful.
 
Requirements
 Who We’re Looking For • You’re not just a “big ideas” person – you’re a builder of brands, teams, and culture. You understand the global creative language, but you think, feel, and create in Arabic. Must-haves: • Fluent Arabic speaker with strong English – able to concept, write, and present in Arabic. • 8–12+ years’ experience in top-tier creative agencies, with at least 3–5 years in a Creative Director (or strong ACD ready to step up) role. • A portfolio that shows award-worthy, integrated work for major brands – ideally across sectors such as lifestyle, entertainment, tech, government, tourism, or FMCG. • Deep understanding of GCC / Saudi culture, trends, and consumer behaviour – and how to translate that into powerful creative platforms. • Proven experience leading teams, giving clear creative direction, and elevating the standard of work. • Comfortable in the room with C-suite clients – you can sell big ideas and build long-term trust. Nice-to-haves: • Experience working within international network agencies or global creative environments. • Previous exposure to the Saudi market or wider MENA region. • Awards (Cannes, D&AD, Effies, Dubai Lynx, etc.) are a strong plus – but the thinking and craft in your book matter most. Location, Relocation & Package • Base: Riyadh, Saudi Arabia • Salary: 52,000 – 59,000 SAR per month (depending on experience and portfolio strength) • Relocation: Open to candidates currently based anywhere in the GCC – full relocation support to Riyadh provided. • You’ll be joining a highly collaborative, ambitious team backed by a global network, working on flagship brands with the budget, scale, and appetite to do truly standout work. How to Apply • If you’re ready to shape the next chapter of creativity in Saudi Arabia and lead work that will be seen, shared, and remembered across the region and beyond, we’d love to see your work. Please send: • A brief note on your current location, notice period, and salary expectations within the 52–59k SAR range • Step into a role where your ideas won’t just win awards – they’ll help define a new creative era in the region.
