  • Support client website redesigns with design that's built for the web, not adapted to it
  • Produce advanced, on-brand presentations that pair messaging with strong visual design
  • Edit and retouch images, documents and assets for digital and, where needed, print
  • Design natively for web, social, email and digital campaigns, working within responsive and digital constraints
  • Collaborate directly with developers and digital teams without needing work to be translated between disciplines
  • Use AI-assisted tools to speed up concepting, iteration and production across channels, setting the standard for how the team adopts them

Requirements:

  • 8+ years in design, with clear progression to a lead, Associate Creative Director or Creative Director level, including agency client-service experience (PR, advertising or marketing)
  • Proven track record in owning creative strategy and presenting it directly to clients
  • A digital-first portfolio: B2B work designed natively for web, social, email and digital campaigns
  • Experience leading creative workstreams independently — directing and executing, not working under a senior designer
  • Expert across Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign)
  • Strong working command of Figma
  • Fluency with generative AI design tools (image, video and copy) and the ability to build AI-assisted creative workflows that accelerate concepting and production without sacrificing craft

  • Excellent communication and people skills, and confidence as the senior creative in front of clients
  • Strong attention to detail, accuracy and follow-through under tight timelines
  • Comfortable working remotely and in a small, distributed team.

Benefits:

  • Fully remote work environment
  • Flexible vacation and personal time policy
