Overview
Design Directors are the driving force keeping the creative side of Huge at the top of its game. They make sure no talent goes to waste and the work stays sharp and relevant. Design Directors develop original design concepts, global marketing campaigns, and digital media. You're able to output your best work while overseeing multiple projects from creativity and execution, to directly managing a large team of creatives.
Huge's Design Directors are responsible for managing client relationships related to all things creative, including pitches, and proposals. We want a Director who's craft is high and likes getting her/his hands dirty when needed: you lead by example and you can show how it's done. You'll lead one of Latin America's best design teams, and you'll be the counterpart for Medellin's Design Director.

Robust background with experience in a creative leadership role in a digital agency environment. Recognized expertise in one or more of the following: interactive design, branding, product design, visual design, advertising digital marketing.
Although you don't need to be an expert in UX you are an expert designing for digital: apps, web apps, sites, e-commerce, and digital ads amongst others.

Strong ability to prioritize work and resources across engagements based on short- and long-term needs. Timelines, budgets, and availabilities change, and we need someone who can roll with it.

Please include a link to your online portfolio to be considered. Huge is committed to creating an inclusive employee experience for all Hugers. We firmly believe that our work isn’t at its best unless all of our employees, regardless of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, or disability have equal opportunities to do great work.
