The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Fortive is hiring a Creative Director in Monroe, LA.

• Role description

  Fortive is opening a Creative Director chair for someone who treats Affinity Diagramming like a second language and deadlines like a sport. Boiled down: temporary, $116,000 - $157,000, 11 years of Empathy, and a seat at the table where Fortive decisions get made.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Curate the reference wall that keeps a 12-person studio pointed the same way
  • Salvage usable frames from a shoot the weather in Monroe half-ruined
  • Resurface old Fortive archives for motifs worth a second, sharper life
  • Wring a campaign system from an one-line creative tagline
  • Time the reveal in a launch film so the logo lands earned, not slapped on
  • Reconcile legal's caveats with a layout that still breathes

  What You'll Bring

  • The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly
  • Comfortable owning projects from concept through delivery
  • Willingness to relocate to Monroe, LA, or to make remote work
  • The communication discipline to over-share early and trim later
  • Demonstrated calm when a Monroe, LA client changes scope mid-stream
  • Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
  • A communicator who writes the meeting recap nobody asked for but everyone reads
