The Creative Director owns MOJWJ's visual world, translating our messages into content that's digestible, distinctive, and built for an oversaturated political market. This role shapes our visual style and voice, finds new and creative ways to get our messaging out, and produces the graphics, video, print, and public-facing experiences that make our work unmistakable. Where the Comms Director decides what we say, and the Digital Organizer moves people to act on it, the Creative Director owns how it looks, feels, and lands.
This is a creative leadership role where you'll direct the brand while staying hands-on in production, building the templates and content systems that let a three-person team punch above its weight. You bring creativity, art, and culture into the organizing itself, from digital ads to art builds at events because our people need space for joyous rebellion.
