Join our team

as an Art Director

At JAM, we value people over process. Instead of focusing on rules,
roles and titles, we focus on hiring the right people. The result is a
more flexible, fun, creative and successful team.

Our values

These are the specific behaviours and skills we care about most.
The more these sound like you, the more likely you are to thrive here.

Integrity

You do what is right, not what is easy.

Curiosity

You’re eager to question things. That’s where opportunity lives.

Honesty

You’re accountable, even when that means highlighting a mistake.

Excellence

You recognize that setting goals is the first step to success.

Respect

You embrace difference and collaborate effectively with everyone.

Judgment

You do what makes the most sense and value long-term decision-making.

Stability

You follow through on your commitments, time after time.

Work Ethic

You are always up for a challenge and proactive in your approach.

Selflessness

You take time to help colleagues and make everyone around you better.

Your opportunity

While every JAM Art Director has core responsibilities, what
you do outside those responsibilities is equally important, so we give
you plenty of room to learn, grow and explore.

Core responsibilities

  • Design emails, motion graphics, websites and DM collateral
  • Collaborate with writers and account teams
  • Ensure brand consistency and follow UX best practices

Freedom to do more

Get outside your comfort zone and try something new – from exploring coding to planning charitable events to something we haven’t even thought of.

Education and requirements

  • Post-secondary education related to Art Direction
  • Fluent in Sketch, InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator
  • Working knowledge of Web development best practices (Responsive design, HTML 5, CSS)
  • Working knowledge of After Effects is an asset
  • Strong portfolio, preferably focusing on direct campaigns in print and digital spaces (DM, email, ebanners)

Please apply to jobs@jamdirect.ca with your cover letter and resume. Please ensure that you include both your first and last name in the file name, and include the subject line ‘Application: Art Director’.
