Overview:

We’re looking for a strategic hire to join our creative team to help lead in the shaping and execution of creative ideas. You’ll be a valuable addition to our team, creating client ready work, design assets and presentations that sell in work and bring our ideas to life visually.

We expect you to be driven by quality experiences and inspired by design — your passions should be in quality executions no matter the medium. As a member of our team you will be responsible for creating and communicating concepts, developing campaign art direction, and ideation for original assets.

The ideal candidate will be a visual thinker who can help us solve problems with both their hands-on skills and thinking. A lot of job descriptions put people inside a narrow focus, but this is an opportunity to flex and showcase a variety of skills.

You love pitching and have a knack for developing ideas on the fly for potential new clients. You have no ego and a “whatever-it-takes” attitude. You will create a range of work spanning ideation through delivery while working closely with our Creative Director, and strategy counterparts to fulfill and exceed client needs. This requires an ability to set the tone and guidelines for how work should look and feel as well as the world it lives in.
