Creative Director

Life at Bloom

Join the dynamic team at Bloom, an innovative digital agency with offices in Montreal and Toronto. Here, flexibility, employee well-being, and work-life balance are at the heart of our priorities.

For 19 years, we've been proud to be recognized as one of Canada's top employers. With over 75 passionate specialists, we help brands stand out online through a 360 marketing approach. Bloom offers a hybrid work model, and our interviews are held via video conference. Some roles may require in-person meetings.

Role Overview

Bloom is accelerating its growth by scaling a creative product rooted in both performance and craft. We are looking for a Creative Director who will define and lead this evolution.

This is a key leadership role where you will shape the creative model, the team, and the work itself. You understand how ideas move through culture and how emerging tools are reshaping creative production.

You will define our clients' presence across all platforms, anchor campaigns with powerful ideas, and ensure our creative output earns target audience attention and drives measurable results. This includes responsibly and intentionally integrating generative and intelligent tools to strengthen both craft and performance.

Key Responsibilities

  • Creative Vision & Craftsmanship: Own the creative standard across all client work, leading the development of campaign ideas, content systems, art direction, and copy. Act as the final creative authority to ensure every output is of the highest quality and reduces revision cycles.
  • Performance-Driven Outcomes: Drive creative content that is optimized for platforms like Meta, TikTok, and Google. Partner closely with Paid Media and Strategy teams, championing a test-and-learn approach to ensure creative integrity while maximizing measurable results.
  • Generative & AI Integration: Bring hands-on experience with generative tools (image, video, copy) to enhance ideation and production. Collaborate with agency leadership to establish clear guidelines for responsible use, navigate ethical considerations, and mentor the team on effective, critical application.
  • Client & Team Leadership: Present and sell work with clarity to senior stakeholders, building trust and guiding clients toward stronger creative decisions. Manage, lead, mentor, and develop designers and creators, raising the bar on both visual craft and writing across the entire team.
  • Building the Creative Engine: Help optimize and design scalable systems (briefing, ideation, QA) that balance creative ambition with feasibility. Contribute to the evolution of Bloom's overall creative product and positioning.

Knowledge and Skill Requirements

  • An accomplished creative leader with 8–12+ years of agency experience and a portfolio that demonstrates excellence in concept development, storytelling, art direction, and copywriting.
  • Equally comfortable discussing creative vision, business objectives, and executional details, with the ability to connect all three into work that delivers measurable impact.
  • Experienced in building and improving creative systems, workflows, and quality standards that enable teams to produce exceptional work efficiently and consistently.
  • Curious and informed about emerging technologies, including generative AI, with a thoughtful perspective on where these tools create value, where human judgment remains essential, and how to integrate them responsibly into creative practice.
  • Comfortable leading both high-volume content ecosystems and larger campaign initiatives, adapting your approach to the needs of the client, audience, and platform.
  • A trusted client partner capable of presenting work, facilitating difficult conversations, and influencing senior stakeholders with confidence and credibility.
  • A mentor and coach who develops talent, elevates creative thinking, and inspires teams to continually raise the standard of their craft.
  • Energized by building: new processes, new capabilities, new ways of working, and a creative culture where people can do the best work of their careers.

Why This Role

Bloom is entering a new chapter. As audiences fragment, platforms evolve, and creative technologies accelerate, agencies have a choice: chase every trend or build a creative practice designed to thrive through change. We believe the future belongs to teams that can combine strategic rigor, passion for craft, continuous learning, and responsible innovation.

We're looking for a Creative Director who wants more than a seat at the table. We're looking for someone excited by the opportunity to help shape the next generation of creative work, develop emerging talent, raise the standard of what we deliver, and build an environment where great ideas can flourish.

If you're energized by building, mentoring, experimenting, and creating work that delivers both business impact and creative pride, we'd like to meet you.
