So gladyou came...

Dear Drew & The Miro Hiring Team.

I’m writing to express my keen interest in the Creative Director role at Miro. With over a decade of creative leadership experience, I’ve built and led multidisciplinary teams across design, motion, editorial, and strategy—currently overseeing 40 creatives as Creative Director at eight&four. From rebranding global icons like Angostura Rums to scaling a financial client from a Scottish six-figure brief to a multi-million-pound global account, I’ve thrived by uniting bold ideas with rigorous creative standards and cross-functional collaboration.

What excites me about Miro is not just your ambition, but the opportunity to help shape a brand that’s brought a brilliantly simple idea to life—making ideation, collaboration, and creativity easier for teams everywhere. As someone who’s spent their career helping brands tell clear, compelling stories across complex touchpoints, I’m energised by the chance to work on a product that empowers creativity at scale. I understand the need to “take the bull by the horns”: I’ve done this time and again, leading integrated campaigns across every channel—from photography and experiential to digital, PR, and OOH. I also know how to nurture and scale creative teams to reduce external dependency while championing clarity and creativity in equal measure.

While SaaS is a new category for me, I’ve spent the last six years transforming B2B perceptions—most notably with Hitachi, launching and running their Instagram presence to reposition them from a consumer tech brand to a global green innovation leader. I'm currently leading multiple B2B briefs for DHL, so I understand the nuance, rigour, and opportunity in marketing complex offerings with simplicity and soul.

My leadership style is collaborative and inclusive—I believe the best ideas can come from anywhere, and the CD’s job is to make those ideas sing. I’m passionate about guiding teams toward excellence while building a creative culture that’s strategic, energised, and kind.

I’d love the chance to bring this ethos to Miro and help elevate an already brilliant brand. Thank you for considering my application—I look forward to the opportunity to speak further.

All the best,
Slev.
