AnalogFolk is proud to announce the launch of an exciting and ambitious campaign to address the critical issue of declining diversity and inclusion and lack of visibility of female creative leadership in the industry.&nbsp;It simply asks the question - if the advertising legends we know today were women, would they have reached the same heights?&nbsp;Despite women comprising 54.7% of the creative industry, the pool of diverse and female creative talent remains strikingly small. This scarcity is further exacerbated by the fact that many talented leaders are not always the most visible. As AnalogFolk embarked on its search for a Head of Creative, it became clear that the current talent pool is neither diverse nor balanced.&nbsp;That’s why, for our Head of Creative role, we are calling on the industry to participate in recommending outstanding diverse and female creative talent to create an Open Source pool of talent that all agencies can share and utilise to help meet their DEI targets and drive the industry forward.&nbsp;If you would like to apply for this role yourself, please enter <a target="_self" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://jobs.lever.co/analogfolk/1a056812-ebfa-4e4a-8a1d-34967f92e940" tt-mode="url" class="0" title="0" download="0">here</a>If you know anyone that you believe is ready to step up to the role of industry leader, then please enter the form <a target="_self" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSemQXCy0znTxV5ziGDYap_6L294sWo3zikOLV30Zw_1NJTdzQ/viewform" tt-mode="url" class="0" title="0" download="0">here</a> to add them to our open-source industry talent pool.&nbsp;
