Job description

JOB OVERVIEW

At Red Dot, everything is brand. That means every detail matters, every idea connects back to real business goals, and every person on our team shapes the work we put into the world.

We’re looking for a Senior Art Director who combines big-picture vision with hands-on craft. Someone who can concept bold ideas, lead brand systems, and roll up their sleeves to create compelling campaigns across digital, print, social, and more.

You’ll join a tight-knit, senior-level team of designers, writers, and strategists—where thoughtful collaboration, creative excellence, and accountability to each other define how we work . And while we take our craft seriously, we also value authenticity. Because strong ideas come from whole people, not burnout.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Partner with writers and strategists to develop integrated campaigns across media.
  • Direct and design creative materials from first sketch to final production.
  • Guide brand systems while remaining hands-on in execution.
  • Lead multiple B2B and B2C projects , managing timelines and communication.
  • Mentor and collaborate with teammates to elevate the overall creative product.

WHO YOU ARE

Mindset + Approach

  • Thoughtful : you dig deep into a client’s business, audience, and strategy before you create.
  • Accountable : you take ownership, meet deadlines, and follow through.
  • Authentic : you bring your true self to the work, and you help others do the same.
  • Creative : you love big ideas as much as the details that make them shine.
  • Skills + Experience

  • 7–10 years of professional design and art direction experience.
  • Strong, diverse portfolio showcasing integrated campaigns across digital, print, and social.
  • Proven ability to concept big ideas and translate them into compelling brand systems.
  • Expertise with design, animation, and photo-editing software (experience with web / ADA compliance is a plus).
  • Excellent project management and organizational skills.
  • Confident communicator, comfortable presenting to clients and collaborating across disciplines.
  • Degree in graphic design, communications, advertising, or related field (preferred).
  • WHY RED DOT

    We believe everything is brand—including the way we treat our people.

  • Comprehensive benefits : medical, dental, vision, supplemental insurance, and Simple IRA with company match.
  • Generous paid time off, because balance fuels creativity.
  • Discretionary bonuses tied to company performance.
  • Hybrid work model with flexibility to work from home and in-office.
  • A team culture rooted in authenticity, accountability, thoughtfulness, and creativity.
  • Exposure to a diverse mix of clients and industries—so the work stays fresh and challenging.
  • Opportunities for leadership growth and career advancement.
  • HOW TO APPLY

    Ready to bring bold ideas and thoughtful craft to Red Dot? We’d love to see your work.

    Please apply with your résumé and a portfolio link that showcases both your creative range and your strategic thinking. We’re looking for more than polished visuals—we want to see how you’ve helped brands connect with their audiences.

    Send all resumes and portfolios to Laurie DePhillips at ldephillips@reddotad.com.
