Job Overview:

THE·TEAM is looking for a Sr. Art Director who brings strong ideas and memorable visuals together. We want someone who thinks big, moves fast, and likes being hands on. Depending on the day, you might bounce from concepting an idea to giving feedback on an asset to learning new emerging creative tools to cranking out a social post. You embrace new tech, but your ideas and craft are what drive the work.

You’re easygoing, collaborative, and comfortable working across different teams. You can talk to senior creatives, vibe with strategists and producers, and work smoothly with designers and creators. You understand production enough to plan ahead and keep the edit smooth.

This is a permanent role based in Brooklyn. Hybrid in-office 3 days a week, along with additional in-person event coverage as needed.

What You’ll Do:

Your day moves between concepting, art directing, designing, tweaking, reviewing, and reacting to whatever comes your way. You’ll team up with a Designer, Copywriter, or Creator to make ideas that feel fresh instead of recycled. You’ll create visuals that actually stand out in the feed.

• Create visuals that support the brand while sparking real conversation.
• Partner with different creative and production teams so everything feels thoughtful and cohesive.
• Jump into brainstorms and help shape ideas from rough sketches into real work.
• Contribute, and sometimes own, client presentations and pitch decks.
• Work with CDs and ACDs on creative ideas across social, presentations, websites, and experiential projects.
• Stay connected to cultural trends so our work stays fresh and relevant.

Who You Are:

• 6+ years of agency experience bringing ideas to life.
• Ability to concept quickly without recycling the same idea with new vibes.
• A sharp eye for what works and the ability to explain it.
• Strong collaborator who works well with internal teams and clients.
• Ability to plug into any brand’s visual identity and switch gears fast.
• Understanding of how brand partnerships work and why they matter.
• Solid grasp of social media and AI tools, bonus points if you like basketball.
• You know Photoshop and the usual tools inside and out.
• You get how content needs to look and function across platforms.
• You take pride in your work, communicate early, and stay curious about emerging trends.
• Comfort using G Suite.

Base salary range: $95 - 110K, plus bonus potential if applicable for role.
