WHO DO YOU REPORT TO?

Chief Creative Officer

ARE THERE ADDITIONAL EXPECTATIONS?

Our workload fluctuates throughout the year, and sometimes we are very busy. Studio artists must be available during relevant stages of all jobs. Some overtime and late nights are to be expected. Our current working environment is considered “flexible”; however, this role will require three days a week in the office for training purposes.

We have an engaged and creative team of approximately 40 colleagues dedicated to teamwork and collaboration. We’re project-focused and deadline-driven - so some days may be longer than others. But even when it’s busy, we make time for team activities (whether virtual or in person), rooftop barbecues and other celebratory get-togethers.

If you join us, you’ll need to be okay with dogs: we are a dog-friendly studio. They’re all harmless, but some of them are big.
