Our ideal Creative Project Manager - Creative Director will blend strong project management skills with creative direction to ensure the successful execution of design projects across various categories, including marketing collateral, video animations, and website/app design. You will be responsible for coordinating all design-related aspects of client projects, ensuring seamless collaboration among multidisciplinary teams, and meeting project timelines. This role involves setting and managing client expectations while applying design processes to deliver high-quality outcomes. Exceptional organization, attention to detail, and communication skills are essential for managing multiple projects simultaneously and ensuring on-time delivery.

Designity is a subscription-based creative platform that enables seamless more efficient collaboration between creatives and businesses through a unique and innovative model. Our unique approach has attracted companies of all sizes, including Calendly, Kung Fu Tea, and Marriott Hotels, who choose Designity for their design and marketing needs over traditional, more expensive, and less efficient alternatives.

We’re revolutionizing the creative industry by introducing more thoughtful, effective, modern design and marketing methods. Companies traditionally hire in-house creatives, which is costly, time-consuming, skill-limiting, and requires substantial supervision. Working with traditional design and marketing agencies offers an alternative but at a high cost. Marketplaces like Upwork and Fiverr claim to offer a more affordable solution, but their model lacks reliability and optimization for creative practices, bringing frustration for businesses.

While we maintain a fast-paced startup environment, we’re also in full scale-up mode. If you’re seeking clear career growth, fully remote work, flexible hours, diverse project opportunities, and a chance to build quality content for your portfolio, Designity is the place to learn, develop, and grow into the creative thought leader you aspire to be.

Responsibilities:

  • Manage projects from brief to completion using Designity’s tools, ensuring high-quality creative output.
  • Understand client goals, identify challenges, provide solutions, manage timelines, and ensure successful outcomes.
  • Mentor and guide Designity’s creatives, setting direction and supporting their growth as a decision-maker and mentor.
  • Apply advanced visual design skills across various industries, with a deep understanding of the design process and attention to detail.
  • Communicate clearly with clients, presenting work and translating feedback into actionable tasks for Creatives.

Qualifications:

  • 10+ years of experience in the creative industry, spanning design agencies, startups, or in-house teams.
  • Proven project management skills, with the ability to develop briefs, timelines, and manage independently.
  • Experience mentoring and guiding creatives at various levels.
  • Detail-oriented and organized, ensuring high-quality, on-time delivery.
  • Exceptional presentation and communication skills.
  • Strong portfolio showcasing expertise in at least three different design categories.
  • Bachelor’s/advanced degree in Design, Marketing, or a related field; additional management education is a plus.
  • Hands-on, self-motivated, team-oriented, with an entrepreneurial mindset.
  • Based in the US or Canada with excellent English communication skills.
  • Quick learner with a passion for processes and multitasking.

Big Plus:

  • Knowledge of AI and experience with AI tools is highly regarded.

Benefits:

  • Fully remote, full-time position with flexible PTO, company holidays, and mental health days.
  • Engage in innovative virtual reality team meetings, with VR glasses provided for eligible Creative Directors.
  • Be part of the vibrant Designity Creative Community, offering continuous learning, collaboration, and engagement with fellow creatives.
  • Clear growth pathways with promotion opportunities into leadership roles.
  • Comprehensive benefits package including 401k and health insurance for qualified W2 employees.
  • Enjoy dedicated focus times designed to boost your productivity and creativity.

Compensation: $85,000 - $130,000
