Associate Creative Director (Design)

role at

Envisionit

Base pay range

$115,000.00 / yr - $130,000.00 / yr

The Role

You’re someone who loves digging in deep to understand the complexities of a client’s business, but can also think visually and conceptually and lead others to do the same. You geek out about partnering with strategy to uncover insights that grow businesses, and you love working with media and analytics teams to stay connected to how campaigns and digital destinations are performing. You love branding and have impressive experience in developing and evolving award‑winning campaigns and activations. You’re someone who truly wants to be a trusted partner to our clients, and above all—make a strong impact on the work, the team, and how we drive new business forward.

Key Functions

Drive the creative vision and visual brand direction for our agency’s clients.

Channel research and data‑driven insights into well‑crafted visual work that delivers upon our client’s strategy, business objectives, and performance goals.

Coach and mentor writers and designers to take their work from concept to final execution, with support and strategic vision along the way, especially focusing on elevating visual design and user experience.

Manage and own the day‑to‑day execution of campaign launches.

Craft cohesive visual stories that drive emotion and inspire action across all digital channels.

Confidently present design ideas and creative concepts to both internal team members and clients.

Partner with tech, media, and analytics team members to ensure our creative is optimized to meet and exceed our clients’ goals, with a keen eye on visual performance and user engagement.

Collaborate with the client services team to accurately estimate creative solutions within budget and time limitations, ensuring effort matches value.

Direct external partners, contractors, and consultants to support internal resources when needed.

What we’re looking for

First and foremost, you are an exceptional designer. You have a passion for discovering new ways to tell a brand’s story that builds relationships with their audience through compelling visuals, intuitive user interfaces, and engaging experiences.

You are willing to get your hands dirty because you enjoy rolling up your sleeves as a designer in addition to directing work.

Experience in digital design is a must, but it’s a huge plus if you have tourism marketing or hospitality experience or a willingness to jump in and learn.

You know how to concept—and have the track record to prove it through a strong portfolio demonstrating strategic visual thinking.

You love diving in deep to understand your clients’ business and becoming their highly valued partner.

You take personal accountability to ensure campaigns perform well against business goals.

You are great at coaching and mentoring writers and designers to deliver high‑caliber, boundary‑pushing work, with a particular strength in guiding visual execution and innovation.

Submissions without a portfolio link will not be considered.
