Open Position

Art Director

Description

Are you a design mastermind with a knack for turning visual chaos into eye-catching masterpieces? As an Art Director at Snapshot, you’ll be our go-to magician, conjuring up style, flair, and flawless designs on the daily. Reporting to the Creative Director and working closely with another Art Director you’ll have creative freedom and responsibility as you manage budgets, timelines, and all things design. You’re able to present your work like a boss— dazzling them with your strong portfolio and conceptual brilliance. You’re equally at home in the digital and print worlds, and you can handle Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, XD, Figma) like a pro, maybe even with your eyes closed (not recommended, but impressive). In our collaborative, team-first environment, you’ll be working closely with designers, writers, Account teams, and—wait for it—obsessing over every pixel and font size. Your attention to detail is so sharp, it makes eagles jealous. Your adaptability and thirst for what’s new will keep you ahead of the curve, whether it’s design trends, techniques, or where to find the best coffee. You’ll not only explain your design choices like a pro, but you’ll also have a passion for growth and learning. If you love delivering designs that wow and leave people speechless (in a good way), then you’re exactly who we need to elevate our brand.
