Job description

About Grab and Our Workplace

Grab is Southeast Asia's leading superapp. From getting your favourite meals delivered to helping you manage your finances and getting around town hassle-free, we've got your back with everything. In Grab, purpose gives us joy and habits build excellence, while harnessing the power of Technology and AI to deliver the mission of driving Southeast Asia forward by economically empowering everyone, with heart, hunger, honour, and humility.

Get to Know the Team

We're the small-but-mighty creative squad behind GrabExpress and Grab Transport—two of the fastest-moving departments at Grab. Think of us as the visual storytellers who turn goals into bold, and scroll-stopping creative.

We work fast, collaborate tight, and always aim high. From major campaigns to everyday tactical promos, our team excels at solving problems with smart ideas and elegant visuals. You won't just join a team—you'll join a crew that cares about the craft, the impact, and each other.

Get to Know the Role

This Art Director role isn't your average "make it pretty" job. You'll be the visual lead for GrabExpress, while also supporting projects from Grab Transport (yes, two exciting brands—double the fun, double the challenge).

You'll take ideas from rough scribbles to standout visuals that achieve results. You'll partner with copywriters, marketers, and partners to build campaigns that break the clutter. And you'll help shape how Grab looks with millions across Southeast Asia.

If you're the kind of person who sees a blank slide and already imagines a full-blown campaign in your head. We want that kind of energy. Reporting to the manager, you will work onsite in our Jakarta Head Office.

The Critical Tasks You Will Perform

• Lead the creative direction for GrabExpress, from concept to execution
• Support Grab Transport with visual ideas and thoughtful implementation
• Bring briefs to life with clear, strategic, and brand-aligned visuals
• Work with writers, marketers, and business teams to build integrated campaigns
• Mentor junior designers—because you're a team player, not a lone wolf
• Always push for better: better ideas, better craft, better impact

What Essential Skills You Will Need

• Minimum Bachelor's degree from relevant majors
• At least 2 years of experience in similar role
• Eye for design: layout, color, typography, and composition
• English proficiency both verbal and written
• Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator)
• Capability to turn briefs into clear, impactful visuals
• Familiar with digital and print formats (social, in-app, OOH)
• Understand branding and visual consistency

Life at Grab

We care about your well-being at Grab, here are some of the global benefits we offer:

• We have your back with Term Life Insurance and comprehensive Medical Insurance.
• With GrabFlex, create a benefits package that suits your needs and aspirations.
• Celebrate moments that matter in life with loved ones through Parental and Birthday leave, and give back to your communities through Love-all-Serve-all (LASA) volunteering leave
• We have a confidential Grabber Assistance Programme to guide and uplift you and your loved ones through life's challenges.
• Balancing personal commitments and life's demands are made easier with our FlexWork arrangements such as differentiated hours
