ART DIRECTOR (temporary position – possible full-time)

CTP is looking for an Art Director to join our creative team. Someone who can take a creative brief, break it down to its core, then reassemble it into something that inspires. We’re talking about a visually-minded, strong conceptual thinker. Someone who seeks the big idea and human connection first, then builds from there. A team player whose skills are matched only by their curiosity, and who isn’t afraid to knock ideas around in a brainstorm with others until they find the most innovative way to tell our clients’ story through almost any type of media.

You’ll work on print, television, and social media. Moving pixels and static ones. OTT, OLV, CTV and perhaps a few things that haven’t even been invented yet. 

If you’re most comfortable outside of your comfort zone and are ready to create big bold ideas for some big bold brands, send us your book. 

While this is currently a temporary position at the agency  (2-3 months full time), there is an opportunity for this role to become a full time position pending new business outcomes.

In order to be successful in this role:

  • You love to create, but you won’t freak out when clients hate your ideas
  • You have boatloads of digital and social ideas that can actually sell something
  • You have an understanding of typography, photography, illustration and design. 
  • You love finding marketing solutions, regardless of channel or media
  • You have done this before. And have the book to prove it.
  • You’ll contribute to client presentations and new business pitches and help secure new accounts by showcasing innovative thinking and creative ideas
  • You play well in the sandbox. Collaboration is the name of the game.  
  • You are comfortable using emerging AI tools to support concepting, visual exploration, and creative efficiency.

Requirements:

  • Must have the ability to work in our Boston office 2x/week (Tuesday/Wednesday) or more depending on shoot and project needs
  • Ability to travel independently to shoots and client meetings when needed
  • Master of creative tools (Adobe CS, Figma, Gen AI, etc.)
  • 3-5  years of art direction, managing and contributing to creative ideas
  • A portfolio of work that showcases creativity and storytelling abilities

Please note, all employees are required to be in-office at our CTP location on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. 

The salary range for this position is $60,000 – $75,000 annually. Compensation is based on a variety of factors, including relevant experience, skills, internal equity, and market data. In addition to base salary, we offer a comprehensive benefits package and a collaborative, supportive culture focused on delivering breakthrough ideas for our clients.

We are an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment. If you require a reasonable accommodation to complete any part of the application process or in your work once hired, please contact our Human Resources Department.

Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States. We do not offer visa sponsorship for this role.
