At Jack Morton we create head-turning, stomach-dropping, mind-boggling, smile-inducing brand experiences for everyone. It’s the future of marketing and there’s nothing passive or predictable about it. We promise every day will be different than the previous one in a very good way.

We take care of each other, as much as we take care of business. We marvel in each other’s uniqueness and revel in what each of us brings to the human potluck that is Jack.

So if you want to help shape the future of an entire industry, welcome. If you feel work, and the people you work with, can be extraordinary, let’s chat. We’re Jack, and we can’t wait to meet you.

That brings us to you.

As a Creative Director at Jack, you’ll be accountable for generating big, brave, bold creative ideas and helping direct how those ideas come to life (about 40% concepting, 60% execution). This is a research-driven account for a power management company, and you'll be responsible for digesting and distilling key concepts via different forms of content and conversations with subject matter experts. Taking what you learn, you'll come up with creative concepts you'll help execute, including gamification projects. You’ll report directly to the VP, Group Creative Director of the Boston office while being responsible for overseeing both copy and art. Most importantly, you are you, and we would have it no other way.
