  • Build strong relationships with clients, becoming a trusted partner in creative problem-solving.
  • Work closely with the Regional Creative Strategy Head and Country Manager to align on creative vision and growth.
  • Innovation & Thought Leadership

  • Experiment with new formats (short-form video, memes, interactive campaigns, AR / VR, etc.) to keep Hepmil at the cutting edge.
  • Contribute to thought leadership by producing internal trend reports, creative playbooks, or POVs for clients.
  • Requirements
