Senior Production Designer/Art Director at MediaMonks Singapore

Job Description

MediaMonks Singapore has a full-time position for a talented senior production designer/art director who wants to coach and coordinate a global team of designers that produces top quality content for the product interfaces of one of the world’s most recognisable brands.

Role & Responsibilities

• In this senior level role, you’ll oversee a dedicated team that specialises in the design of static visuals for product interfaces, social media and display advertising.
• Working alongside Project and Creative Monks, and the international design team, you make sure our designs and processes are in line with the client’s objectives and expectations.
• You make sure that the design team harmonises speed, style and scale to produce a big volume of good-looking assets at a steady pace.
• Pixel perfectness is important. You safeguard quality at all times and work together with QA testers.
• In addition to making images look so good you'll want to lick them, you make sure that designs adhere to guidelines and are consistent across ad formats, dimensions and languages.
• You look after the execution of the art direction and help to improve the work by offering new angles, (P)inspiration, best practices and practical solutions — guaranteeing projects meet our standards.
• You are responsible for training the designers and making sure all documentation and design standards are up to date.
• You are always on the lookout for process efficiencies.
• You will be required to do an art direction test before going to the interview stage.
• You’ve earned your stripes in the field of production/asset design and are ready to take on this role with mentor-like responsibilities, helping younger designers get better at their job in a sacred ritual called constructive feedback (i.e. hovering art direction).
• Your Photoshop skills are so slick, they look photoshopped; and you also know how to organise your files, layers and folders, even if you’re a creative mess outside of Adobe CS.
• You are great in Illustrator and photo retouching.
• You are interested or proficient in Sketch.
• You can enable designers to take charge of tasks independently.
• You can contribute to different stages of the production process; from setting styles and layouts to cutting formats and language versioning.
• You can handle repetitive tasks and stay focussed.
• You are well versed in documenting and enforcing guidelines.
• You are well-versed in English, production tricks, and cat videos.
• You are a clear communicator and are happy to work with designers from all over the world
