Some designers chase the brief; the flexible Creative Director Caterpillar needs chases the truth the brief was too shy to say out loud. You supply 11 years and Iconography; Caterpillar supplies $107,000 - $163,000, a Macon home, and growth that does not flatten out.
Key Responsibilities
- Read the room mid-presentation and reorder the deck on the fly
- Distill a hour-long strategy deck into one image that survives the hallway test
- Fold accessibility into the first sketch, not the final QA pass
- Argue palette and type with the same evidence you'd bring to a Strategic Planning review
- Write, edit, and shape copy that reflects Caterpillar's voice and values
- Resurface old Caterpillar archives for motifs worth a second, sharper life
- Stitch fragmented brand assets into a system that scales past Caterpillar's next phase
- Generate concepts for temporary campaigns spanning paid, owned, and earned media
What You'll Bring
- Working knowledge of Service Design alongside transferable Layout Design chops
- 10 years of learning when to trust the process and when to break it
- Prior experience working on-site in Macon, GA, or willingness to relocate
- Comfort being accountable for a clarity-seeking outcome in a temporary role
- A track record of quietly-excellent delivery in a temporary structure
- Enough Iconography to be dangerous, enough Service Design to be trusted
- Willingness to commute to Macon, GA or work flexibly as needed
