Ragtag bunch of hooligans seeks a smart, conceptual Senior Art Director with mad design chops to develop integrated campaigns in the better-for-you and healthy food space.
About the job:
As our team continues to grow, we seek to add a Senior Art Director who ensures a high standard of quality and conceptualizes strategic work across various client accounts. Our output spans the gauntlet from daily social posts to high end photo and video shoots.
You will work collaboratively with all departments to conceptualize, produce and execute a variety of content. This position will report to a Creative Director and work in tandem with other art directors, copywriters and designers on the team. There will of course be guardrails and oversight, but you must be someone who is self-motivated and can handle a lot at once – switching gears between tasks, teams and projects. You will lead the ideation and execution of creative branding from monthly social content to packaging design, video graphics, website wireframes and retail partnerships.
Each day will be different and fast-paced. One moment you may be knee deep in Photoshop or Illustrator and the next moment you’ll be on set art directing a photoshoot. You will also be responsible for ensuring your work aligns with overall brand strategy and goals.
About You:
- You are an art director with zero hubris, looking to feed off of collaborative energy.
- You have a strong work ethic and work smart, not just hard – you know how to prioritize a to-do list… but you’re not afraid to have fun too.
- You are willing to wear many hats and be versatile in different roles.
- You can roll up your sleeves and dive deep into the execution of work, while the next day concepting high level campaign ideas.
- You have an independent spirit. You have a point of view. You are not afraid of taking the lead and developing strategically sound ideas, but you are also happy to just follow the brief as it’s assigned when we say you gotta.
- You are flexible, you can adopt various client brand personalities, and you can see ideas through different mediums.
- You are an innovator – a designer that challenges themselves and team with new trends, looks and ways of working more efficiently.
Requirements
- Support the Creative Director and Strategy teams to produce excellent creative work that drives results based on client goals.
- Leverage data and industry trends to inform and drive creative ideas that are on strategy and drive results for our clients.
- Continuously understand and take into account our client’s audience insights, product benefits, offers, KPIs, brand standards and production specifications.
- Think strategically beyond the assignment at hand to incorporate platform idea pitches into our offering for clients.
- Help lead the ideation and execution of photo and video shoots; be present for large scale shoots.
- Participate in branding exercises – including logos, colors, fonts, photography style, etc.
Additional Qualifications:
- A degree in art direction or graphic design
- 5+ years agency and/or client-side experience conceptualizing and executing marketing campaigns
- Experience and knowledge in the digital and social space required
- Packaging design and motion design experience are highly desired
- Experience working on CPG, food brands big and small, and understanding consumer segments are preferred
- Priority given to candidates in the Chicago area who are available to participate in shoots at our West Loop office
- Must provide a link to your online portfolio for consideration
- If you don’t meet 100% of the qualifications outlined above, tell us why you’d be a great fit for this role in your cover letter
Salary for the Senior Art Director role varies based on experience in the $75,000 to $90,000 range.
