Design Director

Required

• 5–8 years of experience in brand, design, or creative roles, ideally within a strong branding or creative agency environment.
• Exceptional design judgment and craft. You know what great looks like, can push work beyond the obvious, and are willing to challenge conventions to create something distinctive.
• Extremely strong with clients. You're confident presenting to founders and senior stakeholders, can articulate and defend creative decisions, manage feedback, and build trust quickly.
• High ownership and reliability. You do whatever it takes to get important work over the line, stay calm under pressure, and don't need someone chasing you to make things happen. This is not a role for someone looking for a strictly 9–5 mindset.
• Able to move fluidly between direction and execution. You can think at the highest level about the idea, strategy, and creative system, but you're also willing to get into the details and help make the work better when needed.
• Driven to raise the bar. You want to build better work, better processes, and a better team — not simply maintain what already exists.
