We seek a talented Senior Creative Designer to become our core creative content driver, working in-house to develop and deliver innovative design concepts and content across various media. This role transcends traditional social media design, involving creation from scratch—ranging from campaign ideas to spontaneous photography, motion graphics, and novel content formats.

Responsibilities

• Generate original creative concepts inspired by product lines, artwork, collaborations, events, and everyday brand moments.
• Produce the content personally, utilizing photography, short-form video, motion graphics, editing, and light design to bring ideas to completion.
• Transform product launches into engaging content that highlights the inspiration and stories behind each collection.
• Document authentic Knobby moments across products, retail environments, warehouses, events, community, athletes, and partnerships.
• Maintain a steady stream of dynamic content tailored for organic social media, paid advertising, eCommerce, email marketing, retail environments, NFC applications, PR, and other brand touchpoints.
• Manage creative input from external contributors such as artists, ambassadors, and other content creators.
• Ensure all produced content consistently reflects Knobby's distinctive and cohesive brand identity.
• Leverage AI tools and emerging creative technologies to enhance idea generation, execution quality, and productivity when appropriate.

Requirements

• Established expertise in graphic design fundamentals including typography, composition, art direction, and storytelling aligned with brand identity.
• A compelling portfolio demonstrating conceptual thinking and process behind the artwork, not just finished pieces.
• Proven capability to interpret briefs, uncover creative opportunities, and devise original ideas.
• Strong skills in creating, capturing, and editing both still images and video content independently.
• Flexibility to execute both large-scale campaign concepts and quick creative outputs.
• Comprehensive understanding of modern digital content platforms, emphasizing timeless creative quality over fleeting trends.
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, video editing software, and familiarity with AI-augmented creative workflows.
• A proactive, inquisitive mindset with confidence to initiate creative projects without direct instruction.
• Preferred: Formal tertiary qualifications in Graphic Design, Visual Communication, Communication Design, or a related creative field.

Benefits and Culture

• Potential profit-sharing eligibility after six months of employment.
• Access to gym membership facilities.
• Complimentary breakfast and light lunch offerings at the workplace.
• Barista-quality coffee and kombucha available on tap.
• Regular team events and unique experiences.
• Dog-friendly office environment.
• A workplace that provides substantial creative freedom and opportunity to make a significant individual impact.
