Jan Kelley

Art Director

Oh, hello there. We’re looking for an Art Director who’s ready to join our team of self-starters. Someone who cares intensely about the work they create, but also about the relationships they build. We’re looking for someone to be a positive force for good in their attitude and impact. If that describes you, we hope you’ll keep reading.

When it comes to your career, you’re driven by a thirst for great ideas. Ideas that get noticed and recognized, but also ones that solve business problems for our clients. You are fanatical about getting the details correct. Having that logo even one pixel too far to the left isn’t acceptable. You’re also a fantastic collaborator, a true team player who craves input from your coworkers in order to make the work as good as it can be. For you, what’s right is right.

Above all, we’re looking for a great human being who looks at art and design more as a passion than as a career. I mean, we’ll still pay you, of course – but you get the idea.

There’s that word again. Ideas. Let’s start creating some, shall we? 

Perks include: Volunteer days, bonus summer long weekend ½ days, winter holiday, accommodating work schedule, WFH/hybrid model, seasonal health & wellness program, plus other rewards & recognition opportunities.

How you will make an impact:

• Generate recognized, award-winning work
• Develop brand campaign ideas and creative platforms
• Manage creative productions: Lead and provide oversight on video, digital and broadcast production
• Help guide creative strategy
• Foster a positive and creative agency culture
• Mentor / coach junior staff
• Influence agency culture and team morale, and recognize your responsibility to inspire team members to maintain a positive and productive culture 
• Build and manage client relationships and participate in new business development

What you will need to succeed:

• A university or college degree or at least 5 years of experience
• A curious mind, always looking to learn and grow
• A passion for Art Direction as a craft: You can convey a concise vision, and your attention to design details is impeccable
• Experience working with a writer partner to lead creative work for a team
• Experience working within social media platforms including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and SnapChat
• Experience designing for web, including campaign landing pages and websites
• Incredible communication skills: You work harmoniously with your creative partner and your greater team. You present your concepts with passion and conviction
• Software requirements: Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and XD); After Effects experience is a plus 

Nice to haves:

• Experience creating sitemaps and wireframes for websites
• An understanding of the UX process
• A passion for the latest web design trends

Jan Kelley is committed to having a workforce that reflects the communities in which we live and work. As an organization, we are focusing our efforts to ensure that we recognize the unique needs and diverse talents that drive our business forward.

We thank all applicants for their interest; however, only those selected for an interview will be contacted. No phone calls, please.
