Job description

Craft campaigns, build brand systems, and set the creative bar high as Blue Cross Blue Shield's newest Art Director. Consider the trade: your 11 years of Micro-Interactions for $155,000 - $211,000, an internship schedule, and ownership most shops never offer.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain organized source files, asset libraries, and version histories
• Run the critique that makes junior creative work braver, not safer
• Shape the visual language of Blue Cross Blue Shield's social, email, and ad creative
• Prototype three creative concepts cheap so the fourth can go deep
• Turn complex creative information into clear, engaging visuals
• Translate abstract briefs into clear, performance-driven visual directions

What You'll Bring

• Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of an internship project
• Critical thinking skills and sound, independent judgment
• The diplomacy to align stakeholders who don't agree yet
• The integrity to flag your own mistakes first
• Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve

Anchored in Riverside, CA, Blue Cross Blue Shield designs the kind of candor-rich systems that creative teams quietly depend on every single day. At Blue Cross Blue Shield you can challenge your skip-level's plan and still get a thank-you for it.
