ABOUT

As an Art Director you will be responsible for campaign-level ideation and creating visually compelling stories for activations, events and digital content. The role requires a sophisticated aesthetic sensibility that can be applied to a wide range of categories and verticals.

The Art Director will start at initial brief through to the deliverable stage and be asked to manage multidisciplinary design processes that may include graphic design, illustration, animation/motion, and experiential activations. 

In order to thrive in this role, you must be an experimental problem-solver and passionate about storytelling and visual excellence. The ability to communicate creatively and professionally with clients is an absolute must.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Conceive and develop innovative, compelling output
• Research design trends in competitive markets (including regional and global fashion markets as well as traditional and non-traditional media markets) and apply that knowledge to creative projects.
• Ensure that creative output is client-appropriate, designed to perform and is completed on time with the highest standard of quality for both internal and external reviews.
• Manage teams of graphic artists and work with 2D and 3D motion designers, architects, and other multidisciplinary designers to ensure that the overall creative vision is being met.

QUALIFICATIONS

• Minimum of 3-5 years of experience with art direction and campaign-level ideation
• 3+ years of experience with Art Direction and team leadership
• Ability to visually articulate complex concepts in a simple but directional manner
• Ability to develop novel design concepts and tactics against a larger strategy or brief
• Exceptional attention to detail and ability to multitask while managing multidisciplinary design processes
• Ability to be proactive and productive despite a high degree of ambiguity
• You are passionate about design, technology, advertising, marketing and are always keeping pace with it
• You are ego-free and highly collaborative, but can work independently when required
• You are very organized and comfortable leading junior creatives through design processes
• You aren’t afraid to question the status quo and proactively take steps to change things for the better
