Senior Art Director

We’re looking for a Senior Art Director with a strong point of view and a deep passion for campaign thinking and big ideas. This role is for a creative who understands how powerful concepts come to life across channels—and who knows how to elevate an idea from strategy to standout execution.

As a Senior Art Director, you’ll work closely with Strategy, Creative, Account, and Marketing partners to translate insights into compelling, culturally relevant campaigns. You are fluent in the language of campaign—comfortable leading concept development, shaping creative platforms, and articulating ideas with clarity and conviction. You thrive at the intersection of strategy and storytelling, and you know how to turn both into work that moves people.

You challenge assumptions (including your own), inspire collaborators, and bring fresh perspectives that raise the creative bar.
