Who we are

Located in Raleigh, NC, BrandBossHQ/WMH is a strategic branding agency for growth-minded businesses looking to scale. Our goal is to help business leaders identify their unique Brand Story in order to meaningfully differentiate themselves in the marketplace, effectively connect with their target audiences, align sales and marketing efforts, and achieve their growth goals. 

We are a team of researchers, strategists, and creative problem-solvers dedicated to building innovative brand strategies and creative solutions based on insights from three audience sets: your brand, your competition, and your target audience. We understand that marketing, sales, and business are part of one cohesive whole that must work together to reach your full potential.

To thrive, we need fearless thinkers and leaders to venture beyond traditional limits, consistently pushing into intriguing new territories in order to provide a competitive advantage for our clients.

Job Summary

BrandBossHQ/wmHarper is seeking a Senior Art Director to assist the creative team in bringing concepts and creative ideas to life. The ideal candidate would have strong conceptual chops, presentation skills, and chameleon-esque technical ability. We need someone who constantly swings for the fences and makes work bend to their will—whether it’s a B2B corp or a bubblegum brand. 

You take your work personally and take feedback in stride. You can help challenger brands stand out from their competition like a sore thumb—a really gorgeous sore thumb. You treat pixels like playthings. You are intentional about being unconventional. You like to start sentences with, “Wouldn’t it be cool if…”

Job Responsibilities

  • Be a fountainhead of smart, conceptual work throughout a high volume of clients across any and all industries.
  • Carry conceptual brand work through execution, protecting the integrity of the idea for each tactic and touchpoint.
  • Have a strong foundation of the advertising fundamentals, with a robust Rolodex of reference and inspiration. 
  • Be entrusted with creating mechanical/production files for both print and digital deliverables to the agency’s standards.
  • Be a self-motivated professional, meeting all assigned deadlines without supervision or reminders. 
  • Proactively bring ideas to the table without being tasked or asked to. 
  • Clearly articulate your rationale and POV to our internal team and clients.
  • Live in the Triangle area of NC or be willing to travel to our Raleigh office frequently. 

Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in a related field (or portfolio school experience) not required, but preferred
  • 5+ years of experience (agency experience is a plus)
  • The ability to effortlessly move from one client to another 
  • Advanced knowledge of Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop, with expert knowledge and daily practice of major features within each application
  • Knowledgeable understanding of the Pantone color system — along with use cases of Pantone inks and CMYK and RGB color spaces for reproducing images 
  • Understanding of current web design and paid social standards
  • Familiarity with image-generation AI programs is strongly preferred
  • At least some experience in Figma (alternatively, Adobe XD and/or Sketch)
  • Practical knowledge of Adobe After Effects is a huge plus
  • On-press experience is a huge plus

Benefits

  • Competitive salary 
  • Health insurance reimbursement
  • Paid time off 
  • Hybrid work environment
  • A dynamic and collaborative work environment with a culture of creativity and innovation
  • Exposure to many up-and-coming businesses, giving you the ability to make a significant impact on their growth
