Art Director

This is a category-defining, family-owned business, famous for its transformative lighting control and shading, who are building a design studio in New York, and they’re looking for an Art Director to help shape it.

You are not inheriting an established creative culture. You are helping set it.

The Role
As the Art Director on the New York communications team, you’ll own the creative vision by taking the lead on creative strategy and art direction, end-to-end across an unusually wide canvas: 2D visual design, 3D environmental and product visualisation, photography, video, packaging, and physical display environments, including tradeshow and product-demonstration spaces.

You’ll direct specialists – visual designers, 3D artists, photographers, videographers, packaging designers – rather than executing alone, and you’ll run creative reviews, present to senior leadership, and act as the escalation point on strategic creative decisions. You’ll also help recruit and develop the NYC team, shaping who joins and the standard they work to.

The Package
$135,000 – $165,000
Five days per week in the office
High volume of flex days annually for remote work
401(k) match, health, dental and life insurance
Paid vacation based on tenure 
Flexible spending accounts
Tuition reimbursement

The Person
You’re a generalist creative leader, roughly seven to ten years in, with a strong graphic and visual design foundation and real breadth across print, digital, 3D, packaging and environmental work. You’ve directed specialists, not only produced. 

You want to own creative direction, to be known for your judgement rather than just contributing to decisions made above you.
