What You Will Experience

You will work in the Global Brand Creative Women’s Studio, partnering with other creatives on the end-to-end creative development of sport- and athlete-centered stories from concepting and ideation to execution. You’ll bring your writing acumen and creative prowess to the creation of seasonal themes woven into an array of stories which span an array of placements. You’ll integrate athlete and product insights into narratives which convey Nike distinction through the rhythm of language. Success will look like collaboration and the willingness to try new things in partnership with in-house and agency creatives, including strategists, art directors, designers and producers.
