Sr Art Director

New Yesterday

As a Sr. Art Director at fluent360, you are more than a visual thinker. You're a cultural translator, a leader, and a collaborator. You bring ideas to life across all mediums with precision, passion, and purpose. From concept to completion, you guide the creative product with a sharp eye for design, a love for storytelling, and a pulse on cultural relevance.
At this stage in your career, you're a trusted creative force-respected for your taste, your integrity, and your ability to inspire and lead teams. You know how to elevate not just the work, but the people around you. And you're comfortable mentoring junior creatives while still jumping into the trenches to get the job done.

Collaborate with Creative Directors, Writers, Strategists, and Account teams to develop 360 campaign concepts and executions.
Lead visual development and design execution for integrated campaigns (TV, social, digital, print, experiential).
Design and build compelling decks and presentations using AI tools (e.g. Midjourney, Photoshop Generative Fill, Firefly) for comps and storytelling.
Oversee and guide production processes-from casting, directing, and editing to color correction and final delivery.
Present work to internal teams and clients with confidence, clarity, and strategic rationale.
Stay current on social media trends and digital platforms to create relevant content, including short-form video, GIFs, and animations.
Mentor junior team members, helping them sharpen their craft and grow professionally.
Proactively contribute to new business pitches and agency marketing efforts.
Bring forward ideas for professional development and culture-building initiatives (e.g. lunch & learns, workshops, speaker series).
What You Know
Deep understanding of design, art direction, and the craft of comping, including AI-powered tools for faster, sharper visual storytelling.

Experience across the full production lifecycle: pre-visualization, shoot supervision, post-production.
Strong understanding of social-first design, platform specs, and mobile-first thinking.
Ability to balance creativity with strategic thinking and business needs.
Knowledge of multiple audiences, multicultural experience is a plus.
