About the role:
The Mx Group is looking for an experienced, multifaceted art director to join our team. In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with other creatives to generate and execute concepts that tell a story, align with our clients’ messages and drive results. You’ll see a wide variety of projects through to completion, spanning traditional (ads, collateral, trade shows, etc.), digital and video. In this role, you’ll have an opportunity to stretch your skills into art direction in addition to doing hands-on design. When you work with us, you’ll be working in a personable, highly collaborative environment.
What we’re looking for:
- 4+ years of professional graphic design / art direction experience (agency experience a plus)
- Experience and interest in art direction and concepting
- Expert in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign)
- Experience working in a variety of design mediums
- Meticulous attention to detail
- Ability to make smart, purposeful decisions regarding layout and typography
- Experience designing in a collaborative setting

Why you’ll love working here:
At The Mx Group, you’ll find we genuinely value and support each other — as people and as coworkers — as we produce award-winning work together. You aren’t likely to find another team so focused on collaboration and so dedicated to success.
We’re proud of the environment that we’ve nurtured, and because of that, we’re always looking for new ways to brighten up our team’s work day. We’re more into lunchtime board games than drama, and we don’t mind throwing in a chili cook-off or a bags tournament here and there. We’ll celebrate the start of Friday summer hours together, and enjoy a week off at the end of each year.
