Art Director

Washington, DC cross-cultural advertising agency seeks a strong conceptual art director. You think in terms of "big ideas" with extensions across online and offline media. You understand the difference between a concept and an execution. You are well versed in all things digital: web design, social networks, banners, mobile, etc. You are extremely creative, but also have an "eagle-eye" for detail, and are able to conceptualize and execute creative work that faithfully adheres to a given strategic framework. Short timelines and quick turnarounds don't scare you, and neither does presenting creative work to the clients. You are a team player.
 
Your software skills are impressive but you're not afraid to sketch by hand. You have a range of capabilities, and an eagerness to learn what you don't already know.  You can concept, design and produce multi-purpose ads (TV, print, OOH, bus shelters, web banners, mobile, etc.), marketing collateral, infographics, websites, logos and more. 

 
Above all, you are passionate about your work and believe you can produce great creative ideas, no matter what the client or brief. We need someone who can think and translate this thinking into impactful and intuitive design solutions.
