About the role

  • Code and Theory is hiring an Associate Director to work at the core of content and creative transformation engagements within our Enterprise Transformation practice.
  • The right person comes from creative technology, production engineering, or applied AI in creative contexts - not from consulting alone.

  • Familiarity with the Adobe ecosystem - Firefly Services, GenStudio, AEM, Workfront - is a strong differentiator
