Art Director (6-month contract)

Company Description Publicis Production is the global production network of Publicis Groupe, focused on bringing creative ideas to life through scalable, technology-enabled content production. The organization combines creative craft, production expertise, data, automation, and AI to deliver intelligent content solutions for global brands across multiple markets. With thousands of specialists across a worldwide studio network, Publicis Production supports capabilities including content production, post-production, versioning, commerce, CRM, web development, and language services. The network operates as part of Publicis Groupe’s “Power of One” model, enabling integrated collaboration across creativity, media, technology, and data services. Overview We're looking for an Art Director who thrives at the intersection of brand, digital, and design craft. Someone with agency-level creative rigor who isn't afraid to jump into the work and bring ideas to life. If you're equally comfortable shaping a seasonal retail campaign, refining a digital experience, or obsessing over the last few pixels, we'd love to meet you. Responsibilities Lead creative from brief to final execution across digital customer experiences, including email, push notifications, onsite content, seasonal retail campaigns, and more. Partner with Strategists, Copywriters, Designers, and cross-functional teams to create impactful work. Balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution, bringing a high level of craft to every deliverable. Champion user-centered design while ensuring every experience reinforces the brand. Present and articulate creative rationale with confidence while remaining open to collaboration and feedback. Help evolve our creative process by contributing ideas that make the team smarter, more efficient, and more collaborative. Qualifications Experience as an Art Director in an agency or fast-paced in-house creative environment. A strong foundation in UX and digital design, with an understanding of how user experience and brand storytelling work together. A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional visual design, strategic thinking, and conceptual creativity. A self-starter who takes ownership, leads with intention, and follows through from idea to execution. An exceptional eye for typography, layout, composition, color, and the details that make great creative stand out. Someone who believes every detail matters—whether it's a big idea or a single landing page. Strong communication skills with the confidence to ask thoughtful questions and challenge ideas constructively. Adaptable, collaborative, and comfortable working within a growing team that's continually refining how we create our best work. What Success Looks Like You don't wait to be told what to do—you see opportunities, take initiative, and bring thoughtful solutions to the table. You think beyond the brief, balancing strategic thinking with exceptional creative execution. You're collaborative, adaptable, and consistently deliver high-quality work that elevates the customer experience while meeting the needs of the business. Additional Information Transparency matters to us. The salary range for this position is CAD $80,000-$90,000 per year. Actual compensation within this range will be based on a variety of factors, including relevant experience, knowledge, skills, and applicable certifications. This range reflects what we reasonably expect to offer based on current market data. We use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of our hiring process, such as reviewing applications or analyzing resumes. These tools assist our recruitment team but never replace human decision-making. We believe in a human-first approach, where your experience and potential are recognized by people. Publicis Canada is committed to building a diverse workforce representative of our community. We encourage and are pleased to consider all qualified candidates, without regard to race, colour, citizenship, religion, sex, marital / family status, sexual orientation, gender identity, aboriginal status, age, disability or persons who may require an accommodation, to apply.
