DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
This classification typically reports to agency or department management.

Incumbents at the higher level are expected to demonstrate greater initiative, self-direction and independent judgment.
This series differs from the Staff/Services Manager series in that the latter manages a relatively large section/division or provides staff assistance typically to Deputy Directors or Directors. This series also differs from the Administrative Officer series in that the latter primarily deals with agency/department budgets, fiscal or personnel matters and generally reports to a Deputy Director or Director.
In addition, the Staff Services Specialist I/II differs from the Program Administrator series in that the latter works within or manages a specific "stand-alone" program within a department or agency and, generally is not involved in line operations supervision or management.

We are a Growth Invention company built to help the world's most ambitious brands grow faster. Operating at the intersection of technology and marketing, we create what is next by pioneering ideas, acting fast, and moving further because standing still just is not in our DNA.
We are drawn to people who stay curious, move with intent, and never stop inventing. Our culture runs on three values: better together, relentlessly curious, and get sh*t done. It is how we work, how we grow, and how we make things that matter.
At DEPT , you will find the freedom to explore, the space to collaborate, and the trust to make a real impact for our clients, for each other, and for the world we are helping to build.
THE ROLE
We are seeking a visionary Director, Creative who thinks beyond the screen and understands the power of physical environments, including retail. In this role, you will be the architect of our clients' brand's physical presence, tasked with pushing creative boundaries both expressively and graphically.
You will not just design stores; you will build flexible systems that breathe life into our clients' brand. We need a leader who can guide a team through the full creative spectrum, iterating from “mild to wild” to discover the perfect balance between avant‑garde storytelling and practical producibility.
In this role, you will lead a cross‑functional team to deliver distinct brand experiences and ensure brand content and campaign messaging are consistent and cohesive across all touchpoints. Additionally, you will join an embedded team, working onsite with the client weekly to oversee launches and collaborate across multidisciplinary teams and stakeholders.

Partner lock‑step with the senior copywriter. You will work as a cohesive unit to ensure the visual environment and the narrative voice are inextricably linked and mutually elevating.
Distinct from one‑off installations, you will establish a robust, scalable design system for our client's stores. This system must be rigid enough to maintain brand consistency but flexible enough to adapt to different footprints and markets.
Infuse physical spaces with expressive design elements. You will determine how typography, color, and animation live within a three‑dimensional architecture.
Strong knowledge of visual design, user‑centered experience design, interaction design, brand development, and the creative process.
Ability to lead internal teams with strategic vision and creative inspiration.
An entrepreneurial and independent spirit.
A diverse sense of taste with the knowledge necessary to apply to various challenges.
Bring deep empathy to the users you design for, the brands you help evolve, and the internal teams you lead and collaborate with.
Innovation and experimental thinking that generate innovative thinking.
WHAT YOU BRING
8+ years in creative leadership, specifically with a focus on Experiential Design, Environmental Design, or Retail Innovation.
A deep understanding of how humans move through and interact with physical spaces. You can read floor plans as well as you can critique a layout.
A portfolio of work that demonstrates the ability to translate brand strategy into immersive physical experiences. Must show examples of work scaling from concept to built reality.
Familiarity with material fabrication, print production techniques, and digital display technologies.
Mastery of the Adobe Creative Suite; familiarity with spatial tools (SketchUp, Rhino, or similar) is a strong plus.
Demonstrated ability to provide strategic vision and creative inspiration to large, diverse teams.
Excellent public speaking and presentation skills with the ability to clearly articulate complex information to clients and internal stakeholders.
Highly detail‑oriented, proactive, comfortable navigating complex organizations, and focused on strategic problem‑solving and process efficiency.
