At .monks, we believe creativity is not just a department-it's the centerpiece of everything we make. We're on the hunt for a Chief Creative Officer (CCO) who brings bold vision, undeniable presence, and a proven creative pedigree to help shape what's next in advertising, storytelling, and brand experiences.
This is an opportunity to lead a globally recognized, culturally-driven creative force at the forefront of marketing and innovation.
Who You Are

• A true creative leader-with a proven track record as a chief creative officer, executive creative leader or equivalent at top-tier creative agencies or brand-side leadership roles.
• Known and respected in the industry, with press-worthy campaigns and award-winning work (Cannes Lions, D&AD, AdAge, etc.), but more importantly, someone who creates work people feel-measured, insight-driven, and strategic.
• Charismatic and compelling-you walk into a room and people lean in. You can sell an idea, command a presentation, and make clients and creatives feel seen and inspired.
• A culture builder-the kind of leader that encourages collaboration and open mindedness while always bringing a perspective. You're human-first, not ego-first. You shape inclusive teams, mentor talent, and know how to create environments where the best work gets made.
• Comfortable moving from brand to digital to experiential, always putting creativity at the center, grounded in insight and driven by impact.
• Able to translate client feedback into opportunity, not compromise. You're a creative translator as much as a visionary.

What You'll Bring

• 15+ years in creative leadership roles, with 5+ years as CCO or equivalent.
• A portfolio of culturally significant work and big brand campaigns that have moved business and earned accolades.
• Experience across brand, digital, social, content, and experiential-demonstrating breadth and depth of thinking.
• Strong business acumen, with an understanding of how to build creative that works as hard as it inspires.
• A people-first approach that builds trust and confidence in rooms of clients, colleagues, and collaborators.
• Bonus if you've helped shape creative departments at a high-growth or global agency.

The Role

• Lead and elevate the creative vision for .monks in North America.
• Inspire and mentor multi-disciplinary creative teams, ensuring work is bold, strategic, and beautifully executed.
• Partner closely with leadership across disciplines-strategy, production, account, and operations-to shape pitch-winning ideas and transformative campaigns.
• Be an active face of .monks creatively-presenting work, pitching, and representing us publicly.
• Help architect the next era of .monks: creative at the center, collaboration at its core.

At Monks, we believe in fostering an environment where a diversity of perspectives can thrive. We proactively work to design hiring processes that promote equity and inclusion while mitigating bias. We celebrate diversity and are committed to building a team that reflects the communities we serve. We welcome and encourage qualified applicants, from all backgrounds, who are excited to contribute to our mission.
