Lead Designer

Senior-Level Lead Designer

We're looking for a senior-level Lead Designer to own creative output across a digital agency's client portfolio and set the standard for all design work.

You'll translate concepts, rough visual directions, and strategic goals into multiple compelling creative options, allowing clients to react to strong ideas rather than a single safe execution. Reporting directly to the agency owner, you'll work closely with the technical lead and participate in creative reviews with senior marketing stakeholders on the agency's most demanding accounts.

This role requires strong conceptual thinking, polished execution, speed, accuracy, and confident client communication.

• Own design output across the client portfolio, from initial concept through final delivery.
• Translate loose direction into several distinct creative directions quickly, allowing clients to react, combine, and select ideas.
• Produce brand-caliber creative for national accounts, with a visual standard comparable to work from a large agency.
• Maintain quality control across all design work leaving the agency, including reviewing and elevating work produced by other team members.
• Ensure consistency and accuracy across copy, specifications, calls to action, and brand guidelines.
• Partner closely with the technical lead on projects that move from design into development or production.
