As an advertising director, you’ll use your visual knowhow and creative flair to produce ideas for advertising campaigns in a range of media like digital, press and for cinema. Learn more about a career in advertising, find out what it involves and what you’ll need to study and do to get a role.
You could start your career in an internship or assistant junior role in advertising, gaining experience by working on various projects or with different companies.
