This page is about marketing agency careers at Maison Cealus, the private marketing house based in Poland. It covers who we look for, how to send your work and what happens after you do.
How we hire
We hire rarely, and we do not list open roles on this page. The house keeps a short list of clients on purpose and works from inside each business, so every person here works close to the result.
That is why we would rather see your work than read about it. A strong reel or a page of good writing makes the case faster than any CV.
Who we look for
We look for four kinds of people, matched to the work the house makes.
Editors
Editors cut launch films, campaigns and daily short form, along with founder content. In residence, one idea often becomes many variations for testing, so speed matters as much as taste. You should know why an opening second holds attention, and be able to cut ten versions without the tenth looking tired.
Directors of photography
A director of photography here lights and frames everything from a launch film to a founder speaking to camera on an ordinary weekday. We look for people who keep a high standard on a small set and a short day, and who frame for the phone first.
Strategists
Strategists own positioning, the media plan and paid testing, as well as launch sequencing. The job is to decide who needs to see a brand, where those people spend their time and where the money goes next. You should be comfortable with weekly numbers and willing to cut what does not work, including your own ideas.
Writers
Writers handle naming, voice and copy, and the scripts and story sequences the house puts out. We value clear sentences over clever ones. A name or a line should survive being read aloud, cut down to a caption and repeated in the hundredth post.
What every role here shares
- Taste you can explain. You can say why something works, in plain words.
- Comfort with numbers. Work is judged every week on what it did, and you want to know the answer.
- Discretion. We work inside other people's businesses and see things that are not public.
- Ownership. You care about the result as much as the founder does.
How to send your work
Email fabian@mxnndirective.com and include the following.
- Your discipline in the subject line, such as Editor, Director of photography, Strategist or Writer.
- Links to the pieces you are proudest of, with a line on what you did on each.
- Where you are based and how you prefer to work.
- A few sentences on why this house, and one thing you would change about our own work.
Send links rather than large attachments, and send your best work rather than all of it. A short, sharp selection tells us more than a long reel.
What happens next
If there is a fit, we reply personally and arrange a conversation. Because we hire rarely, the timing may not line up straight away. Our privacy policy sets out how the house handles personal data.
If you came here hoping to work with us as a client, apply for admission instead, or read more about the house first.
