Title: Senior Art Director

Job Description
The creative department is the engine room of the agency. We believe in a “maker culture” that delivers creative currency at every turn. As a full-time Senior Art Director, you are responsible for the bulk of the agency’s idea generation. You put all of your energy into any and all briefs that come your way.

Additionally we’re looking for a good listener, willing to take feedback objectively and discuss the merits of the work (yours and others’) without taking the critiquing of your work personally.
