About this role

At egg we make experiences. Real ones.

The kind that take creativity, sharp thinking, attention to detail and, every now and then, a sense of humour when everything changes five minutes before launch.

We work across countries, cultures and clients, so things move fast and no two days look the same. That's part of what we enjoy. It also means we need people who can stay calm under pressure, take ownership and care about getting things right.

Which brings us to you

You're a creative leader who combines vision with practical execution. You know how to guide teams, elevate ideas, win pitches and create an environment where creativity can thrive without losing sight of commercial reality.

You're also curious about the future of creativity. AI, emerging technologies and new ways of working excite you because you see them as tools that help ideas go further, faster and smarter.

Most importantly, you're not interested in creativity for creativity's sake. You're interested in creativity that wins, delivers and makes an impact. No half-cracked eggs.

What you’ll be doing

  • Shape and elevate egg's creative output, working closely with the Chief Event Experience Officer and creative teams across the business

  • Lead the development of winning concepts and creative strategies for pitches, client opportunities and major event experiences

  • Act as a senior client-facing representative of egg's creative vision, building trusted relationships with key stakeholders and presenting ideas with confidence and credibility

  • Inspire, mentor and develop the creative team, helping individuals grow while fostering a culture of collaboration, innovation and excellence

  • Drive alignment between Creative, Experience, Production and Project teams to ensure ideas remain strategically strong, deliverable and commercially viable

  • Champion the use of AI, emerging technologies and innovative creative approaches that strengthen both our work and our competitive advantage

What you’ll bring

(We really mean it. Candidates who do not meet the following criteria will not be considered.)

Please note that we are focusing on candidates based in Brussels, Paris or anywhere in the UK.

Experience & skills

  • 10+ years of experience developing and leading creative concepts within the B2B events, experience, communications or agency environment

  • Proven experience presenting ideas directly to senior clients, defending creative recommendations and building confidence with stakeholders

  • Strong understanding of event experiences, content, storytelling, design and audience engagement across multiple formats and industries

  • Demonstrated experience leading, mentoring and growing multidisciplinary creative teams

  • Hands-on experience using AI-powered creative tools and a genuine interest in how technology is transforming creative work

  • Professional fluency in English, with outstanding communication, presentation and influencing skills

  • Fluency in English (No scrambled oeufs at egg, svp.). Bilingual fluency in French is considered a strong asset
