ABOUT THE ROLE
We’re seeking a Design Director, Campaign to help lead big-idea thinking and drive the development of integrated, concept-led campaigns across our client portfolio. This is a creative manager role for someone who understands how strategy becomes story—and how story becomes impactful work in the world.
With at least 8+ years of experience, including direct client engagement, you bring a proven ability to translate brand and business strategy into powerful creative platforms, campaign systems, and executions. You are fluent in campaign thinking and confident shaping ideas across channels, teams, and touchpoints. You know how to inspire others, elevate creative quality, and ensure ideas remain strong from first concept through launch.
As a Design Director within Campaign, you will work in close partnership with Strategy, Account, and Marketing leadership to define creative direction, guide teams, and build trusted client relationships. You are as comfortable concepting and art directing as you are presenting work, mentoring talent, and contributing to new business efforts.
Studio culture matters deeply to us. You are a thoughtful leader, proactive collaborator, and creative catalyst—someone who challenges thinking, encourages experimentation, and raises the bar for the work and the people around you.
