About the Role
We’re looking for a Junior Art Director to join our creative team. You’ll work across brands and categories, translating briefs into strong visual ideas and compelling communication.
This role is for someone who understands that good design is not just about making something look good—it’s about ideas, visual language, communication, and consistency across every touchpoint.
You’ll be involved in everything from developing campaign concepts and visual directions to designing social media, branding, print, digital and other brand communications.
What You’ll Do
- Develop creative concepts and visual directions based on client briefs
- Translate ideas into strong, cohesive visual communication
- Work across social media, digital campaigns, branding, print, OOH, presentations and marketing collateral
- Develop moodboards, references, layouts, art directions and visual systems
- Create and oversee design executions while maintaining consistency with the brand’s visual identity
- Work closely with copywriters, designers, account managers and other creative team members
- Participate in creative brainstorms and contribute original ideas
- Understand typography, composition, colour, hierarchy, imagery and overall visual storytelling
- Adapt creative ideas across different formats, sizes and platforms
- Present creative concepts and explain the thinking behind the work
- Take ownership of projects from initial concept through final execution
- Keep up with contemporary design, advertising, branding, photography, typography and visual culture
- Occasionally brief photographers, illustrators, motion designers or other creative partners when required
What We’re Looking For
- 2–3+ years of experience in an advertising agency, creative studio, design studio or similar environment
- Strong understanding of visual design and communication design
- Good knowledge of branding and brand identity systems
- Robust understanding of print and digital design
- A good eye for typography, layouts, imagery, colour and detail
- Ability to think conceptually, not just execute a given design
- Ability to take a vague brief and develop a clear visual direction
- Strong presentation and communication skills
- Comfortable working on multiple brands and projects simultaneously
- Good understanding of Adobe Creative Suite — particularly Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign
- Knowledge of Figma and/or motion tools such as After Effects is an advantage
- Strong portfolio demonstrating conceptual thinking as well as execution
- Someone who is curious, collaborative, detail-oriented and willing to get their hands dirty with the work
