You’ll lead the aesthetic side of "the big idea," ensuring a cohesive look and feel across film, digital, social, and physical experiences. - Lead the visual side of production, from selecting photographers and directors to overseeing color grading, retouching, and motion design, ensuring the final product matches the original creative vision. - Act as the visual authority in client meetings. You’ll present design systems and art direction with passion and clarity, helping clients understand the strategic "why" behind visual choices. - Partner with Creative leadership to evolve design workflows, establish quality standards, and identify new tools or AI-driven technologies to keep the team’s craft future-ready. - Foster an inclusive, design-forward culture that encourages experimentation, shared learning, and a relentless pursuit of visual excellence. WHAT YOU BRING: - 5+ years of experience in art direction or design within a creative agency or high-growth brand environment or related field. - Showcasing a mastery of art direction, layout, typography, and integrated visual storytelling across various platforms. - Deep understanding of performance creative best practices and various paid social marketing platforms. - Experience leading small teams or overseeing the work of freelancers and junior creatives. - Expert-level knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc.) and familiarity with Figma, motion design, or emerging AI creative tools. - Concepting skills and the ability to craft compelling campaigns or copy that fits within brand guidelines. - The ability to ensure that every visual choice, from color palette to casting, serves the client’s business goals and brand identity.
