Job Level

Lead

About the role

  • Partner directly with the ECD on ideation, concepting, and creative strategy — the thinking partner who helps turn vision into direction
  • Bring wild, well-reasoned ideas to the table and have the skills to execute them yourself
  • Represent the ECD's creative standards across every project and every channel
  • Help push the brand into cultural moments, campaigns, and big swings that feel undeniably PrizePicks
  • Directly manage two Art Directors (Brand and Social) and two specialist designers
  • Protect and reinforce what George and Brandon own — your role is to elevate their work, not redirect it
  • Coach through doing: show better work, not just describe it
  • Create an environment where the team produces the best creative of their careers
  • Provide direct, actionable feedback that makes the work better every single time
  • Design campaign assets from brief to final — digital, social, OOH, CRM, product touchpoints
  • Animate TV spots, social content and create motion systems from scratch (Not An Option)
  • Build 3D assets — Blender proficiency strongly preferred
  • Concept and write alongside copy when the brief demands it — scripts, taglines, platforms

Requirements

  • 8–12+ years of creative execution experience in a high-performance in-house or agency environment
  • Experience managing or mentoring creative talent — you've made other people better
  • Portfolio that demonstrates genuine range: campaign-level thinking, high-end visual design, motion, and 3D
  • Expert-level in Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects — these are table stakes
  • Blender proficiency — strongly preferred, not optional if you want to stand out
  • Fluency in performance creative — you know what a winning paid social asset looks like and why it converts
  • Deep understanding of sports and culture — NBA, NFL, and beyond. You know the storylines before the brief is written
  • Experience in sports, gaming, or entertainment/culture — you already speak our language
  • Ability to concept, pitch, write and execute at an elite level across every stage of a project
Benefits
  • Company-subsidized medical, dental, & vision plans
  • 401(k) plan with company match
  • Annual bonus
  • Flexible PTO to encourage a healthy work/life balance (2 weeks STRONGLY encouraged!)
  • Generous paid leave programs, including 16-week paid parental leave and disability benefits
  • Workplace flexibility and modern work schedules focused on getting the job done, not hours clocked
  • Company-wide in-person events and team outings
  • Lifestyle enhancement program
  • Company equipment provided (Windows & Mac options)
  • Annual performance reviews with opportunities for growth and career development
