The Opportunity:

Photobucket is looking to expand its creative team by adding a Senior Art Director/Designer. This is a vital design-driven role in our marketing group and requires a digital-forward thinker who knows how to bring brand and visual assets to life for a brand in relevant ways for our Customers.

Who Are We?

The Photobucket Philosophy (Why our Brand Exists): As we exit the dawn of the digital age, and our lives continue to adapt to the realities of being online, the management of our memories has evolved in some unexpected and daunting ways. The accumulation and proliferation of digital photos and videos is expanding exponentially. Memories are scattered throughout the ether from online platforms to hard drives to mobile phones. Photobucket is committed to the singular purpose of preserving those memories and providing the peace of mind that comes with knowing you are in control and your favorite moments are safely and securely looked after.

The Photobucket Mission: Caretaker of Your Memories.

1. Centralization: We bring a person’s digital universe together by consolidating all their pictures and videos together in one place.
2. Community: We encourage collaboration and sharing by letting people text, email, and post their favorite moments, passions and places. With everyone!
3. Reliable Preservation: We safeguard memories by preserving every pixel of every picture and video without any loss of quality over time.
4. Life-Long Commitment: We’ve been protecting people’s memories for over 20 years. Today, safeguarding over 15 billion images and videos while maintaining a carbon-neutral footprint.

If this mission excites you as much as it does us, then we want you to bring your creativity to Photobucket. That is, if you’d like to be a part of a trusted and collaborative, entrepreneurial group that puts customers first, we’d love to hear from you.

The role:

You will partner with and report to the Executive Creative Director.

Our in-house creative team supports our internal marketing team and external partners as well as our customer retention team.

The ideal candidate?

You’re conceptual and ‘get it’ when it comes to creating great work. Driven by smart design and a keen eye for detail. You’re a total team player. A self-starter who shows up with ideas that go beyond the brief. You think omni-channel, not one-offs. Eager to brainstorm on strategy and product development. You put the Customer at the center of everything you create.
