JOB DESCRIPTION 

We are looking for an Art Director to join our Creative Marketing Team for a 3-month contract.  As an Art Director you will partner with a copywriter to deliver world-class brand advertising campaigns for BABVIP. You will be a creative problem solver who is passionate about storytelling and bringing unique stories to life with art direction that feels inspiring, human and empowering. You must be comfortable working across all mediums and channels. You’re a conceptual thinker who can visualize your ideas in new and inspiring ways. You have a strong point of view on concept, design, production and art direction. You are comfortable seeing your vision through from concept to launch without any hand-holding. You are a humble and highly collaborative operator. You enjoy being ‘on the tools’ as much as you like the big picture thinking, and don’t mind wearing a design hat every now and then to help move quickly through production. 

You will be part of the Marketing Creative Team and work in partnership with the Product and Channel teams, Brand Strategy, Creative Director, Creative Leads, Production team and the Operations team to execute against the seasonal Marketing priorities.

We move fast here at BABVIP, and this role will certainly keep you on your toes. We are looking for someone who loves to get stuff done. You’re who we want to work with if you can balance your brilliant creative streak with ruthless prioritization that moves projects rapidly along.

We believe in attracting and nurturing world-class talent with a focus on diversity, community, career development – and doing the best work of our lives.

ABOUT YOU

You’re Comfortable with chaos. You can find solutions even without perfect precedents or direction, and map out a path to clarity and execution. You can work out ways to achieve the impossible and ride through change like a boss.

You have a bias for action. You’re happy to roll up your sleeves, get on the tools, and muck in. No task is too small (or big!) if it helps the team around you to be more effective, and rallies them to achieve their goals faster.

You’re Eager to learn and evolve. From creative craft to leadership skills to market trends – you never stop pushing into the next big challenge. You work alongside people who are better than you at some things. To you this isn’t a threat.

  • Sponsored social clubs and team events

INSPIRING OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN AND GROW.

  • You think and act as We, not Me. We’re all in this together. You love nothing more than to collaborate and build trusted relationships with your team, ensuring everyone is empowered to do the best work of their life, and having the best time doing it.
  • Right brain, left brain. Your head is in the clouds while your feet are on the ground. You balance creative and strategic excellence, flipping between big picture thinking and pixel-perfect craft without jeopardizing the quality of either.
  • You’re a fantastic communicator. Your communication skills help you work cross-functionally with other teams. You brainstorm concepts and facilitate workshops. You give and receive constructive feedback and can clearly articulate how creative work can be improved, mentoring others to deliver their best work.
  • Always striving for your best. You’re a talented creative with amazing design chops, yet you never stop pursuing excellence in yourself and in your work – “Good, better, best. Never let it rest. Until your good is better and your better is best.”
