Junior Art Director

We believe great design is essential to how our brand shows up, communicates, and connects with audiences. As a Design Specialist, you will help bring our brand to life through high-quality visual execution, strong design craft, and thoughtful creative contribution.

Your core strengths are graphic design, visual storytelling, and turning ideas into production-ready creative. Motion and video skills are a bonus, not a requirement. Above all, we’re looking for a designer who cares deeply about craft, thinks visually, and contributes positively to a collaborative, creative culture.
