This role isn’t for the faint-hearted—it’s for someone who’s ready to bring bold ideas to the table, work with top-tier brands, and push digital boundaries.
Why This Role?
As the Freelance Art Director, you won’t just “make things look good”—you’ll be the architect of immersive visual stories, the master behind campaigns that demand attention, and the voice that ensures every creative spark is heard and elevated. Your role will take you from brainstorming to execution, all while ensuring each piece of content reflects both the heart of the brand and the thrill of the experience.

Set the Creative Vibe: Lead the visual direction for campaigns that span digital, social, and experiential platforms. From conceptual ideas to that final ‘wow’ moment, you’ll drive the look, feel, and impact.
Build Brand Stories with a Punch: Craft digital narratives that are not only compelling but unforgettable, staying true to each brand’s identity while throwing in your own creative twist.
Be the Creative Conductor: Orchestrate the production process from start to finish, keeping every project on-brand, on-point, and on-time.
Inspire & Motivate the Team: Work alongside a stellar cast of designers, copywriters, and digital creatives, guiding them to bring their A-game and making magic happen as a team.
Direct the Client Experience: Play a key role in client meetings, presenting jaw-dropping ideas, managing feedback like a pro, and ensuring everyone’s aligned on the vision.
Keep Your Finger on the Pulse: Know what’s trending and be the first to suggest new ideas, tools, or techniques that keep our campaigns fresh and cutting-edge.
What You Bring:
This isn’t your first rodeo. You’re a seasoned pro in digital and advertising who brings a blend of creativity, strategy, and just the right amount of wit to every project.
A Rock-Solid Portfolio: Demonstrated success creating bold, engaging work for brands in luxury, lifestyle, or experiential sectors. Your portfolio shows you can think outside the box and break it entirely when necessary.
Technical Flair: Advanced skills in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects) and an understanding of design for digital media that’s second to none.
Digital Savvy: A natural knack for what works online and across social media. You know how to make content not only scroll-stopping but conversation-starting.
Leadership Swagger: Experience leading and motivating a creative team with your collaborative, open, and results-driven style.
Client Whisperer: You’re skilled at presenting concepts, managing feedback, and making sure clients feel heard, valued, and wowed.
