[Hiring] Art Director @Fresh Prints

Role Description

We're looking for an Art Director who's hungry to own the visual identity of one of the fastest-growing brands in the US collegiate space. You'll be the creative authority on what Fresh Prints looks like — from brand campaigns to pitch decks to product launches — and you'll work directly with our Creative Director to make sure every asset tells a consistent, compelling story.

This role isn't for someone who executes on what they're told. It's for someone with a real point of view, the visual chops to back it up, and great taste.

What You'll Own

• Brand Identity & System
  • Lead the development and stewardship of the Fresh Prints brand system - color, typography, photography direction, iconography, and visual language
  • Ensure every asset, from a paid ad to a sales deck, is undeniably Fresh Prints
  • Build and maintain brand guidelines our team actually uses
  • Partner with the Creative Director to evolve the brand system as Fresh Prints grows
• Creative Production
  • Lead art direction on brand campaigns, product launches, and marketing collateral
  • Art direct and brief photographers, videographers, and freelance designers
  • Produce high-quality assets fast — from quick social graphics to polished campaigns
  • Maintain a quality bar that makes everything feel crafted, not thrown together
• Creative Standards & Collaboration
  • Set and uphold the visual bar for everything that leaves the Creative team
  • Give specific, actionable creative feedback that improves the work without demoralizing the people making it
  • Collaborate closely with our Creative Director, Brand, and Marketing teams to ensure visual work serves the business
  • Represent the brand visually in cross-functional projects

Qualifications

• You have a strong opinion about what looks good and you can defend it clearly without being precious about it
• You have strong design fundamentals. You understand type, hierarchy, color, and layout at a level beyond personal taste
• You understand, respect, and love the customers — you know that your job is to design for them, not design in general
• You think in systems, not just one-offs. Beautiful individual assets that don't cohere into a brand aren't good enough
• You give feedback that makes people's work better, not just your vision real
• You're fast. You know the difference between "good enough to move" and "not good enough," and you move accordingly
• You've actually been responsible for a brand's visual identity before, not just individual executions inside one

Requirements

• 4 to 6 years of design or art direction experience, including meaningful time spent in-house at a brand (not only at agencies)
• Experience owning a corporate or consumer brand identity end-to-end
• Mastery of Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign)
• Figma fluency for collaborative design and handoff
• Strong typography, layout, and photography direction instincts
• A portfolio that demonstrates both conceptual range and executional consistency
• Experience briefing and directing external creative vendors and freelancers
• Comfort working directly with senior leadership on high-stakes work

Benefits

• Competitive salary, depending on experience
• 2-month paid Sabbatical to eligible employees
