Social-first ACD, Art Director

A major Fortune 100 personal care brand with deep roots in body care. The organization is in the middle of a strategic shift toward social-first storytelling, backed by a seasoned internal marketing and creative team. It's a well-resourced, sophisticated company that's actively rethinking how it shows up and connects with consumers today.

Duration: 4 weeks

Commitment: 24 hours/week (may fluctuate between 20-30/week)

Start Date: August 3rd

Location: Remote

A major personal care brand is expanding beyond its core into new formats and categories, and they need a campaign idea that can hold it all together. Not a string of one-off social posts. They are looking for concepts that can flex from a scroll-stopping piece of social content to a 15 or 30-second spot without losing what makes it work.

This is where you come in. We're looking for an Art Director operating at Associate Creative Director level who can run with a brief largely on your own, paired with a Copywriter, to build that idea from scratch. You'll be working directly alongside the brand's internal creative team, who are stepping back from day-to-day execution to focus on other priorities, which means you'll have real room to shape the visual thinking, not just execute someone else's.

What you'll do:

• Partner with an Associate Creative Director, Copywriter to concept a social-first campaign idea for a new product launch

• Develop the visual language, storyboards, and social concepts that connect a house of very different products under one clear idea

• Build ideas that start social-first but are built to work as longer-form 15s and 30s too — this brand isn't giving those up

• Bring a point of view on what's happening in culture and on platform right now, and translate that into work that feels current, not clinical

• Present and pressure-test concepts with the brand's internal creative leads, incorporating feedback quickly given the compressed timeline

• Collaborate with a social strategy lens built into your own thinking

You'll be paired with an Associate Creative Director, Copywriter, and the two of you will largely run the concepting together. The brand's internal Creative Director and copywriter will stay close as reviewers and sounding boards, but the day-to-day thinking is yours to lead.

This role is concept-first: ideation, visual development, and storyboarding. Production and execution sit with the brand's team beyond this scope.

• Experience operating at an Associate Creative Director or equivalent senior art direction level, able to lead concepting with minimal oversight

• A portfolio that shows social-first campaign thinking, not just standalone social executions

• Personal care or beauty category experience required 

• Comfort developing visual systems that flex across formats — social content, storyboards, and longer-form 15s/30s from the same core idea

• A sharp, current read on culture and platform behavior — this brand wants work that sounds like a person, not a press release

• Availability to start quickly and work a fluctuating 20–30 hours a week

Nice to Have:

• Experience developing campaign visual identity across a portfolio of related but distinct products

• Comfort working directly with brand-side creative leads in a fast-moving, still-finalizing-details environment
