Role: Art Director

About the role:

We are on the lookout for an AI‑first Art Director who loves coming up with creative ideas and exploring how they can work across a wide range of platforms, push the ideas, and art direction to create work that stands out from the crowd.

You will be creating ideas and developing new look and feels for social, print, email, and everything in‑between for various alcoholic brands across our portfolio of clients. Although you will need to be experienced across the board in idea generation and art direction, a solid understanding and desire to keep learning how to leverage AI is a must.

Reporting to the Creative Director, you will be joining the creative department of around 10 people and will need to feel comfortable working as part of the team.

What you will be doing:

• Create integrated creative ideas across various advertising formats and develop them with a sharp art directional eye.
• Our main disciplines are social and ecommerce but each day can bring a new format, so you must be comfortable art directing across various media.
• Feel comfortable in elevating our art direction across all touch points.
• Have an integrated approach when creating and building campaigns.
• Brainstorm ideas within a creative team.
• Work closely with the Creative Director to spot wider opportunities and push the creative output of the department.
• Work closely with the team to build out brand guidelines / look & feels for those brands.
• Understand and develop new ideas for the brands and products we work on.
• On site with our clients in Lower Manhattan up to 3 days a week.

What you need to be great in this role:

• Experience concepting or creating within AI tools.
• Ability to create original, impactful and engaging ideas across social, digital and print campaigns and execute them with flair and style.
• Love the craft of art directing across all media, with a built‑in understanding of how to adapt your style to the different brands.
• Have a genuine love for creating ideas and pushing those ideas whenever the opportunity arises.
• An excellent team player: collaborative and adept at building relationships with everyone both internal and external.
• Be self‑motivated, proactive and collaborative, with a can‑do attitude.
• Experience in the alcoholic beverage sector.
• 6+ years of experience within creative teams and departments.
• At the time of this posting, the base salary for this position may range from $114,750.00 to $128,250.00. Individual compensation varies based on job related factors, including location, business needs, level of responsibility, experience, and qualifications. The range listed is just one component of OLIVER’s total compensation package.
