Our work supports organizations tackling the world's biggest challenges, from climate action to public health. We are looking for a Digital Creative Director to lead the creative vision behind that work, helping mission-driven organizations communicate with clarity, emotion, and impact across every touchpoint. As our Digital Creative Director, you'll collaborate across disciplines-strategy, UX, design, content, and marketing-to shape ideas from insight to execution.

Collaborate with Intention: Work hand-in-hand with strategists, designers, writers and marketers to co-create bold, insight-driven work-grounded in research and tailored to specific audiences. Be a Trusted Voice: Present and defend ideas with confidence and humility-leading client presentations, facilitating collaborative reviews, and navigating feedback with grace. Lead the Pitch: Play a key role in new business development-helping shape proposals, deliver pitches, and build creative narratives that show what's possible (and make clients want to be part of it). Expertly Execute: Review and participate in creative output from kickoff to launch, with an eye for detail, a heart for storytelling, and a commitment to raising the bar. What We're Looking For 10+ years in creative roles, with a strong background in brand leadership and digital execution-agency experience a plus A portfolio that showcases standout brand work, conceptual thinking, and cross-channel campaigns that connect Proven experience leading new business pitches and selling creative ideas that stick Deep understanding of brand strategy, storytelling, and integrated marketing across digital channels A confident and empathetic communicator-equally comfortable guiding internal teams and presenting to executive-level clients Someone who sees the big picture, values the details, and believes that collaboration makes everything better Company Culture & Benefits We have a simple motto when it comes to company culture, "Everyone deserves to come to work and be happy." This means a few things: (1) we care as much about quality as we do about budgets (2) we find the strengths in each employee and nurture them (3) we encourage a culture that values innovation and creative freedom (4) we want you to have fun. We understand that you have a life outside of work. We allow our employees creative freedom. We treat them with respect. We value their opinions. In that spirit, we offer the following benefits: Company-sponsored health, vision and dental insurance Pre-tax Flexible Spending Account (FSA) Profit sharing 4 weeks of PTO to start, 5 weeks at year 3 Company-paid short-term and long-term disability Company-paid life and AD&D insurance 11 paid holidays 401k with company match New business referral bonus Salary $120,000 - $150,000 (commensurate with experience) A Little About Us We're a DC-based digital agency with a national reach and a strategy-first mindset.
