Creative Art / Art Director Mid Level (all genders)

Responsibilities and Qualifications

You're passionate about compelling concepts and know how to turn a single idea into a cohesive visual language — from the first rough sketch all the way to the final key visual

You lay out designs with confidence and a strong feel for typography, image composition, and brand identity — across campaigns, social content, and digital formats

You bring around 3 years of professional experience, ideally as an Art Director or in a comparable creative role at an agency

You take ownership and are comfortable stepping into a lead role on projects — including helping build and deliver client presentations

You're proficient in industry-standard design tools like Figma and the Adobe Creative Suite, and you have hands‑on experience with AI‑powered creative tools (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT, Midjourney, and the like) — you know when they actually move the needle in your process and when good old‑fashioned craft is what the moment calls for

As the connector between campaign, social media, and strategy, you bring creative ideas that hold up conceptually and translate into visually consistent execution

You're not afraid to try new approaches — analog or tech‑driven — and you always keep the big picture in mind: an idea that sticks and a result that gets both clients and you genuinely excited

Agile mindset? Absolutely. Our projects run in agile environments with tools like Miro, Jira, and Confluence

You're self‑driven, empathetic, and organized — and you know how to pitch ideas in a way that gets everyone on board

Strong German language skills are required, as our current projects are primarily conducted in German. Solid English skills are a definite plus
