Edelman is looking for a stellar Associate Design Director to support editorial & presentation design projects across the U.S. and beyond. This role will sit within our dynamic design team, working on diverse clients across the agency. Edelman gives its designers a great opportunity to push convention and creativity, empowering this team to find the most innovative ways to drive audience behaviors in today’s socially-charged, digital environment. Edelman is a new kind of agency, at the intersection of PR, Advertising, Social, Digital, Earned Media, and Experiential. We blur the lines between each medium to create smart, innovative, and powerful work that gets people talking and engaging with brands in new ways. We’re passionate, unconventional, and driven by a desire to do the best work possible.
Who Are You?
As an Associate Design Director, you’ll manage, concept, and execute high-quality visual design on multiple accounts and projects. You will manage client relationships by assessing client needs, presenting concepts for approval, and delivering edits to completion. You will be responsible for the conceptual and stylistic direction on multiple marquis brands, part of a broader creative and client-service team whose primary goal is to deliver results with design ideas that earn their way into conversation and get shared like wildfire. As an Associate Design Director, you will also provide design direction to others, guiding them to achieve consistent and high-quality creative outputs. Your passion for design will shine through as you deliver best-in-class presentations, reports, and visual content that elevate our clients and engage the audience.
You’re a designer, a doer, and a problem solver. Whether it is bringing an executive presentation to life, creating event materials in InDesign, or mocking up ideas for creative campaigns, you’ve got the chops. You have great taste, you follow the design world, but you don’t simply copy trends. You’re driven and curious, unafraid to build something new.
