About CreativeX

CreativeX is a B2B SaaS technology platform that helps global marketing teams make smarter creative decisions and elevate creative expression through the clarity of data. Our technology powers creative decision-making at some of the biggest brands in the world, including Google, Unilever, Pepsi, Bayer, Mondelez, Heineken, and more.

We use computer vision and other machine learning techniques to extract creative data from our clients' digital advertising copy and transform those previously dark signals into a standardized data model at industrial scale. This creates a new, unique, and powerful first-party data set that represents the last and most impactful untapped reservoir of advertising performance.

This is the problem CreativeX is focused on solving. We’re an end-to-end solution to ingest, process, and analyze content at scale. We help brands isolate creative elements so they can be analyzed against downstream ad impact metrics, from clickthrough rates to brand lift.

Our objective is to help marketing organizations power every creative decision with data.

Who we are looking for:

We are looking for a uniquely talented, driven, experienced sales executive to join our New Business sales team as an Enterprise Sales Director to take on the responsibility of prospecting, developing, and closing new business deals (individual contributor role).

  • You've sold SaaS software that can be used across multiple departments (preferably company-wide) and across multiple industries
  • Your storytelling skills are unmatched so presenting to multiple departments and industries won’t be a problem for you
  • Successful history of net new business sales (direct), with the ability to prove consistent delivery against targets.
  • Comfortable operating with data and not intimidated by analytics
  • This type of role at an early startup requires an individual who can work in a fast-paced environment, is able to propose solutions to the challenges they have, and is able to adapt their approach as the company grows and broadens its offering.
  • Credibility at all levels and evidence of building strong relationships internally and with the customer.

AI Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Changing career into artificial intelligence in your 30s, 40s or 50s is no longer unusual in the UK. It is happening quietly every day across fintech, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, government & professional services. But it is also surrounded by hype, fear & misinformation. This article is a realistic, UK-specific guide for career switchers who want the truth about AI jobs: what roles genuinely exist, what skills employers actually hire for, how long retraining really takes & whether age is a barrier (spoiler: not in the way people think). If you are considering a move into AI but want facts rather than Silicon Valley fantasy, this is for you.

How to Write an AI Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Artificial intelligence is now embedded across almost every sector of the UK economy. From fintech and healthcare to retail, defence and climate tech, organisations are competing for AI talent at an unprecedented pace. Yet despite the volume of AI job adverts online, many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Roles are flooded with unsuitable applications, while highly capable AI professionals scroll past adverts that feel vague, inflated or disconnected from reality. In most cases, the issue isn’t a shortage of AI talent — it’s the quality of the job advert. Writing an effective AI job ad requires more care than traditional tech hiring. AI professionals are analytical, sceptical of hype and highly selective about where they apply. A poorly written advert doesn’t just fail to convert — it actively damages your credibility. This guide explains how to write an AI job ad that attracts the right people, filters out mismatches and positions your organisation as a serious employer in the AI space.

Maths for AI Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are a software engineer, data scientist or analyst looking to move into AI or you are a UK undergraduate or postgraduate in computer science, maths, engineering or a related subject applying for AI roles, the maths can feel like the biggest barrier. Job descriptions say “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals” but rarely spell out what that means day to day. The good news is you do not need a full maths degree worth of theory to start applying. For most UK roles like Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer, Data Scientist, Applied Scientist, NLP Engineer or Computer Vision Engineer, the maths you actually use again & again is concentrated in a handful of topics: Linear algebra essentials Probability & statistics for uncertainty & evaluation Calculus essentials for gradients & backprop Optimisation basics for training & tuning A small amount of discrete maths for practical reasoning This guide turns vague requirements into a clear checklist, a 6-week learning plan & portfolio projects that prove you can translate maths into working code.
