Collier.Simon
Los Angeles, CA Temporary
POSTED ON 10/2/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/1/2025
Collier.Simon is an independent, full-service creative agency in Los Angeles. We work with our client partners to develop creative solutions that truly move the needle. Clients range from Fortune 500-type household names to up-and-comers across a variety of industries / verticals. We’re in the midst of a tech-powered transformation, using AI to supercharge creativity, not replace it, and we’re looking for curious minds excited to explore AI as a tool to scale, spark, and speed up creativity.

We’re looking for freelance Art Directors with varying years of experience who can concept and design campaigns across channels — with a strong track record in social-first, performance-driven creative. You’ll combine sharp design instincts with strategic thinking, and you’ll bring a curiosity for how AI tools can enhance creative workflows, spark fresh ideas, and help produce standout work faster.

What You Bring

  • At least 1-2 years experience in an agency or similar creative environment. Familiar with fast-paced environments and managing multiple priorities
  • Skilled at concepting and executing across multiple mediums and platforms (social, digital, video, web, print)
  • Proven ability to create social-first, performance campaigns that grab attention and inspire action in a crowded feed
  • Proficiency in Figma and expert-level skill in Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator; Premiere/After Effects a plus)
  • Strong taste and a good eye for copy and visual storytelling
  • Familiarity with branding and identity work (nice to have)
  • Curiosity about emerging tools — including AI — and how they can support ideation, design, and production
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects from concept to completion
  • Critical thinker & proactive self-starter who anticipates needs and turns insights into clear creative choices.
  • Collaborative teammate, comfortable with feedback—co-creates smoothly, asks sharp questions, and iterates quickly

What You’ll Do

  • Develop original concepts and designs for digital campaigns (paid social, display, digital video, email, landing pages)
  • Create and adapt work for additional mediums including print, OOH, and broadcast
  • Collaborate closely with Account and Project Management teams to meet milestones and client needs
  • Experiment with and integrate AI tools into concepting, design iterations, and production where they add value

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in design or related field preferred
  • Deep understanding of creative strategy, industry trends, and design principles
  • Experience with motion design
  • Strong presentation and communication skills
  • Ability to thrive in collaborative environments while working independently when needed
  • Comfortable managing multiple projects and deadlines without sacrificing quality
  • Must be able to work PST hours

The position is fully remote.
