Art Direct + Copywriter (Team)

co:collective•New York, NY
•$120,000 - $140,000•Onsite

About The Position

co:collective is seeking an art director and copywriter team in NYC who believe brands should be less advertising-focused and more action-oriented. This is not a content creation role; the focus is on developing platform-defining, culture-moving concepts that inspire numerous actions and content pieces. The ideal candidates will have experience in 'STORYDOING' – turning bold business decisions into actions that capture public attention, similar to examples like REI's #OptOutside, CVS's departure from tobacco sales, or Patagonia's ownership transfer. The team will translate strategic insights into memorable, non-traditional brand experiences, build ideas that span brand, culture, experiences, and partnerships, and push creative boundaries to produce impactful campaigns rather than numerous forgettable assets.

Requirements

  • Experience as an art director + copywriter team
  • Belief that brands should be less advertising-y and more action-y
  • Ability to deliver platform-defining, culture-moving concepts
  • Experience turning brand purpose into actions people can see, join and discuss
  • Experience making work that earns media and attention, not just impressions
  • 5+ years in a creative agency, focused on strategic concepting
  • Home base in NYC, or a willingness to relocate

Nice To Haves

  • Not website writers
  • Not brochure art directors

Responsibilities

  • Translate strategic insights into memorable experiences that don't fit in a traditional media box
  • Build ideas big enough to span brand, culture, experiences and partnerships
  • Push every brief past "fine" to "wild"
  • Make one truly memorable campaign instead of dozens of forgettable assets

Benefits

  • Salary: $120,000 - $140,000 a year
