Art Director
SUMMARY:
The Art Director will play a critical role in shaping the creative soul of our brand—building a visual world that is both deeply evocative and unmistakably ours. This role blends conceptual storytelling with hands-on execution, leading the creative development of campaign narratives, photoshoot direction, and brand design across all touchpoints. As a visual leader, you’ll guide a small team of graphic designers while working cross-functionally with marketing, production, and brand leads to evolve and refine the look and feel of everything we create—from seasonal launches to evergreen content. This is an opportunity to create meaning through design, and to help tell stories that resonate.
