    About the Opportunity

    Are you ready to spark your passion? Then Sparkloft is ready for you Our dynamic team in Portland is seeking an Associate Creative Director (ACD) who has a knack for asking the right questions and being part of the solution. We're in search of an individual who not only understands the significance of craftsmanship but has the desire to always be curious.

    Our future Associate Creative Director (ACD) is passionate about engaging campaigns that move the needle and drive real results for our clients. You will join our full-service creative team of photographers, videographers, designers, writers, editors, and motion specialists. A thorough understanding of current creative and social trends is a must. Here, your work will spark joy in the connection point between audiences and brands.

    The Associate Creative Director (ACD) will drive the vision forward with team members on campaigns to ensure creative quality and on-brand delivery. Your responsibilities may include (but are not limited to): translating strategic direction into creative solutions for our clients, delivering engaging and compelling presentations through persuasive storytelling, developing work that is consistent with a brand's look, feel, voice, and overall guidelines, and helping lead, manage and mentor junior creatives.

    About Us

    Just as our name states, we spark ideas and ignite a passion for great storytelling. We are a team of connectors, collaborators, and creatives who see the value in both technology trends and the human experience.

As we have evolved over the last 15 years, we have become community builders for brands to tell their story through integrated campaigns. We understand our audiences as wholly realized people with lives, loves, and dreams — not just as segments in need of activating. Our staff is made up of diverse minds, backgrounds, and perspectives to drive positive change for our clients, communities, and team members.
