Creative Director

Wasserman operates at the epicenter of sports, music and entertainment, serving talent, brands and properties on a global scale. Our brands and properties division works with iconic brands and rights holders, supporting business growth through all marketing disciplines. We're a trusted partner to every major league, team and venue, building meaningful connections between brands, properties and fans.

Wasserman is looking for a Creative Director to lead our work across a baseball client—someone who can think in campaigns, pitch with purpose, and create across formats: TVC, social, digital, and beyond.

This role calls for a leader who knows how to guide a team from concept to execution. You’ll be expected to drive BIG ideas, shape narratives, and get hands-on in the work when it counts. You should be as comfortable in a creative brainstorm as you are in a pre-pro, edit suite, or client pitch.

We’re ideally looking for someone who lives and breathes sports—but not just the game. You understand the culture around it: the fashion, the music, the moments fans care about. Baseball experience is a plus. A passion for sports is a must.

You’ll lead a team of creatives (writers, art directors, designers) and partner closely with strategy, production, and account to push the work forward. You should be confident in front of clients, clear with feedback, and experienced with high-level production.

Requirements:

• 7–10+ years creative experience (agency or brand-side)
   

• Proven background creating campaign-level work (TV, social, digital)
   

• Strong production chops — knows how to get things made
   

• Hands-on creative leadership and team mentorship
   

• Deep understanding of sports and culture
   

• Must be NYC-based
   

This role is an opportunity to shape what the future of baseball marketing looks like—and to bring creative energy to one of the most storied leagues in the world.

Base salary range: $175 - $210, plus bonus potential if applicable for role.

Actual base salary is dependent on several factors including but not limited to; market dynamics, location and region, experience, specialized skills/training (education), level of responsibility, budgetary considerations, tenure at the company (for current employees), etc. The salary range listed is just one component of the total compensation package for employees.
