Art Director

What you will do at VeSync: Creative Execution

• Own visual execution end to end. Lead the development and production of visual assets for product launches, seasonal campaigns, packaging, and retail/e-commerce, translating the Creative Director's direction into deliverables across every channel.

• Build shot lists and pre-production visual direction. Partner with the Creative Director to develop shot lists, mood boards, and visual direction ahead of photo and video shoots, briefing the production designers and set dressers who execute on set.

• Build launch and campaign systems. Develop the modular templates, layouts, and workflows that let product launches and seasonal campaigns move quickly across formats and channels without losing craft.

• Guide the creative team. Activate and direct designers, video editors, and other creative team members, giving specific, actionable feedback that raises the bar on execution.

• Maintain brand consistency. Apply and enforce visual standards — layout, typography, color, imagery, and hierarchy — across every platform and format.

• Own packaging and retail execution. Develop packaging and in-store merchandising materials that are structurally sound and shelf-ready, with a strong grasp of dielines and production requirements.

Partnership & Brand Building

• Partner with the Creative Director. Serve as the primary executional partner to the Creative Director, bringing concepts to life through thoughtful production and hands-on problem-solving, and flag conflicts or gaps early.

• Collaborate cross-functionally. Work with Product Marketing, Brand Marketing, e-commerce, and other stakeholders to ensure visual output supports messaging, positioning, and campaign goals.

• Present and defend creative work. Walk stakeholders through design options and production progress, incorporating feedback while protecting the integrity of the work.

• Build the brand through every asset. Treat each deliverable — however small — as a brand-building opportunity, holding the same craft standard on a retail sign as on a hero launch video.

• Drive iterative rounds with the design team. Review work in progress and push designers through revision cycles, catching and resolving visual issues before assets go to the Creative Director for final review and sign-off.

What you bring to the role: • A hands-on creative leader with 5+ years of experience in a creative execution role, in-house or agency, with a portfolio that spans product launches, seasonal campaigns, and packaging.

• You are hands-on and visionary at once. You can build a shot list, refine a layout, and still see the bigger campaign idea a piece of work is meant to serve.

• You think in systems. You'd rather build a template or workflow once than reproduce the same fix campaign after campaign.

• You are a strong executional partner. You take a Creative Director's point of view and run with it, filling in gaps with good instincts rather than waiting for every detail to be specified.

• You have experience building shot lists and pre-production visual direction for commercial photo and video shoots, briefing production designers and set dressers who execute on set.

• You are proficient in packaging design and structural formats, with a solid understanding of dielines and production requirements for retail and shelf.

• You have expert-level proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, and Microsoft 365; PowerPoint/Keynote skills a plus.

• You have strong knowledge of color theory and color psychology, applied fluently in brand and marketing contexts.

• You are a generous, clear communicator who gives specific, actionable feedback and flags issues before they become problems.

• You are organized and adaptable, able to manage multiple launches and campaigns at once in a fast-paced environment.
