The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Savills is hiring a Art Director in Vancouver, WA.

• Role description

  If you've ever redesigned a cereal box in your head while eating breakfast, the Art Director role at Savills might be your natural habitat. What sets the offer apart is trust — $142,000 - $206,000 and internship hours are nice, but the creative ownership is the headline.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Argue palette and type with the same evidence you'd bring to an Adobe Photoshop review
  • Rescue a stalled concept by attacking it from a Negotiation angle nobody tried
  • Engineer a template system flexible enough to survive Savills's rebrand
  • Compose social cuts that read clearly with the sound off
  • Stitch fragmented brand assets into a system that scales past Savills's next phase
  • Frame the design rationale so director approvers feel smart agreeing with you

  What You'll Bring

  • Proven aptitude for Negotiation, ideally near Vancouver, WA
  • Director mastery of Problem Solving, validated by people who'd hire you again
  • The integrity to flag your own mistakes first
  • Critical thinking skills and sound, independent judgment
  • A point of view on Savills's space, sharpened by your own reading
  • A teammate's instinct to unblock others before yourself
  • 12+ years putting Design Systems to work in a creative setting

  Savills is what happens when scrappy engineers in Vancouver decide that good enough is the enemy of great Lottie. We believe great Lottie work comes from people who feel safe to experiment and occasionally fail.

  We provide $142,000 - $206,000, a wellness budget, retirement matching, and clear milestones for moving up to the next director.

  We are meeting Art Director candidates now and moving qualified ones forward fast.

  The candidates who apply early at Savills are the ones we remember, so be early.
