About the Role As a Senior Designer, you’ll help shape the visual expression of one of the country’s most recognizable consumer communications brands across its fast-moving social and content business. You’ll take established creative ideas and campaign directions and turn them into compelling, cohesive design across organic and paid social, film, experiential activations, presentations, motion content, and other brand touchpoints. Reporting to a Design Director, you’ll work directly with Creative Directors and multidisciplinary creative teams to develop the visual language of an idea and carry it through detailed execution. We’re looking for a detailed, versatile, and highly skilled designer who can quickly understand the intention behind an idea, identify the strongest visual approach, and help the brand remain distinctive, culture-forward, and cohesive across a high volume of work.

Provide motion designers and editors with a strong foundation without being expected to animate the work yourself. Maintain a High Bar for Craft: Bring strong typography, composition, color, image selection, hierarchy, and attention to detail to both larger campaigns and fast-turn, always-on assignments. Stay Close to Culture: Maintain an informed point of view on youth culture, internet culture, and emerging visual styles, translating those influences into original and brand-appropriate work rather than simply replicating trends. Mentor and Take Ownership: Provide thoughtful guidance to less-experienced designers while managing multiple assignments and changing priorities with strong organization, dependable communication, and autonomy. About You The essentials: 5+ years of experience in graphic design, brand design, advertising, social content, or an equivalent portfolio that demonstrates the same depth of ability. A strong portfolio showing exceptional design craft across social content, campaigns, brand systems, presentations, and motion boards.
