You'll combine exceptional design craft with motion expertise to create work that stops the scroll, tells a story, and drives results at scale.

You'll be in the work daily designing and concepting-while also overseeing bodies of work and ensuring everything that ships meets the bar. You'll build scalable systems, leverage the latest AI tools to accelerate production, and bring a deep understanding of retail and the customer shopping journey to every brief.

• Creative oversight: Oversee bodies of work across the Prime portfolio, providing art direction, feedback, and quality control to ensure everything that ships raises the bar
