Creative Innovation Senior Manager

**Your Role**:
You are the creative bridge between **imagination and innovation**. As our Creative Innovation Director, you will spearhead the integration of emerging tech (think generative AI, interactive media, AR/VR and beyond) into the creative process - all while preserving and enhancing the magic of our storytelling.

You won’t just introduce AI tools for mood boarding or ideation — you’ll lead the design and implementation of **automation pipelines**, creative tooling integrations (e.g. Figma+Midjourney+Notion), and even prototype **data-driven storytelling engines** or **interactive brand moments**. You understand how to **map workflows**, define **AI prompts**, or orchestrate a suite of tools to cut down production time and increase output quality.

You will work hand-in-hand with our Creative Strategy and Events teams to dream up concepts that captivate and then use your tech-savvy to make them feasible and unforgettable. One day you might be **writing a narrative for a haute couture product launch**, the next you could be prototyping an AI-driven installation that responds to audience emotions in real time. If you think like a creative director **and** a futurist innovator - this role is your canvas.

**Key Responsibilities**:

- **Creative Concepting & Storytelling**: Collaborate with creative leads and strategists to translate client briefs into big ideas and narratives _enhanced by technology_. You’ll still craft mood boards, storyboards and pitch decks, but now with an innovative twist - e.g. suggesting an AI-generated art backdrop as part of an event concept or using data storytelling to personalize a journey. You ensure every idea is not only **inspiring and on-brand** but also elevated by new creative tech possibilities. (You might write the storyline for a experiential journey and concurrently outline how an interactive projection or chatbot could play a role in that story.)
- **Innovation & Feasibility Leadership**: As much as you ideate, you also **execute**. You will prototype concepts in fast turnaround - from mocking up visuals with AI tools to building quick interactive demos (with the help of designers and developers) - to prove ideas and wow clients. You’ll assess the feasibility of experimental ideas, working closely with our Design and Production teams: _Can this be built? How can we build it smarter with tech?_ You are the voice in brainstorms that says, “We can achieve this through [AI/tech solution]” and then charts the path to do so, ensuring ideas are ambitious _yet achievable_. Think part scenographer, part hacker - you make sure our wildest ideas can come to life beautifully **and** realistically.
- **Workflow Enhancement & Training**: Champion new creative workflows inside Visionnaire. You’ll introduce and train the team on tools that improve our ideation and production - for example, using an AI image generator to produce concept art in minutes (saving our designers time), or implementing a script-writing assistant to refine our presentation copy. You’ll develop best practices for integrating these tools into daily work and be the point person for our internal “innovation lab” initiatives. Essentially, you **give our creatives superpowers** - automating rote tasks, providing inspiration on tap, and freeing up the team to focus on big-picture creativity. Importantly, you’ll also establish guidelines to use AI responsibly (ensuring our luxury clients’ data and brand integrity are never compromised).
- **Cross-Team Collaboration**: Work across all departments - Accounts, Events, Design, Production - to inject innovation at every stage. You will **lead cross-functional project squads** for special high-tech initiatives, serving as both creative director and tech advisor. In pitches, you partner with account directors to present our vision to clients, articulating the story and the tech _in the same breath_. You’ll also liaise with external tech partners or vendors when specialized development is needed, speaking their language and translating it back to our team. Internally, you foster a culture of collaboration, curiosity and “what if we try ?” thinking, making innovation a natural team sport at Visionnaire.
- **Thought Leadership & Client Engagement**: Act as an evangelist for Visionnaire’s innovative spirit. You’ll stay on top of global trends in experiential marketing, AI, and design - and constantly share that knowledge. This could mean organizing a monthly creative tech inspiration session or authoring a short trend report for our luxury brand clients on “The Future of AI in High-End Events.” In client meetings, you’ll confidently present visionary concepts (grounded in tech know-how) with clarity and charm. You can translate technical ideas into **romantic, brand-friendly language** that gets clients excited. Ultimately, you help position Visionnaire as a forward-thinking partner for luxury brands - one that marries timeless storytelling with the latest in innovation
