Job description

Good design solves problems quietly; great design makes them disappear entirely, and NYU Langone needs a Creative Director fluent in both. This is where 12 years becomes $120,000 - $165,000, where internship hours meet real creative ownership, and where NYU Langone bets on you.

Key Responsibilities

• Reconcile legal's caveats with a layout that still breathes
• Stage A/B variants that isolate one creative variable cleanly
• Keep current with Miro and Motion Design to expand the creative toolkit
• Argue palette and type with the same evidence you'd bring to a Lottie review
• Carry layouts from napkin scribble to press-ready file without losing the spark
• Hold the line on kerning while shipping at an internship pace

What You'll Bring

• Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
• Roughly 10+ years operating in a similar Creative Director position
• Curiosity that outpaces your current job description
• Comfort navigating ambiguity when the brief arrives half-written
• 12 or more years steering creative projects end to end
• Authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship
• The diplomacy to align stakeholders who don't agree yet

Built in Jonesboro and run on caffeine and conviction, NYU Langone turns messy creative problems into clean, repeatable wins. Psychological safety is something we actively build, so disagreeing in good faith is encouraged.

In return for your Mobile-First Design expertise, you'll earn $120,000 - $165,000 along with 401(k) matching and flexible remote options.

This one is current, freshly dated, and very much hiring.
