Funday is a full-service & fully-remote agency made up of people who are friendly and hardworking in equal measure. Inspired by an unrelenting belief that having fun is integral to creativity, we like to say we're all about fun and brains. You know, that sweet spot between where pretty and performance meet and where insight and imagination produce the entirely unexpected? That's where we thrive.
Art Director
As an Art Director, you'll report directly to an Associate Creative Director and work with clients and teammates scattered across the globe. Your role will be varied and change from day to day. We need someone senior enough to guide a junior on an account but also ready to roll up their sleeves and get hands-on, sometimes as the only creative on a project. We're a small group, so everyone contributes, with the support of strategists, technologists, and producers who share your passion for great work.
You are a maker and a storyteller at heart, endlessly curious, and you use your craft to bring creative solutions to life. You lead projects into fun and inspiring creative territories. You know the FUNdamentals well enough to bend and break the rules. You're comfortable forging your own path, but you also know when to bring others in. You're culturally connected and bring ideas from the world around you, not just a Pinterest board. You know how to design a brand and campaigns that feel fresh and full of energy. You can communicate ideas that spark excitement and push teams and clients to see new possibilities.

If you live in Canada, are able to work here
and
you are in one of these provinces: BC, AB, ON - please apply! Otherwise, we're sorry, we won't be able to employ you.
Please note:
we post the same role in multiple locations to help us cast a wide net. Applying to each location for a posting will not increase your chances. Now that we've saved you some time, go do something fun!
This posting is for an existing vacancy we are looking to fill immediately and not a prospective future role (i.e. we're saying this isn't a ghost job).
Come be a Funatic
We believe you won't perform at your best if you're not having fun. And you can't have fun if you're not performing. We believe that this creates the best client + agency relationships, and is the best way to make great work.
We believe in respect, inclusivity, kindness, equity, and equality. We want to make a positive impact. We believe that collaboration is the fun part of being at work. We strive to create a culture in which "we" is more important than "me".
Apart from loving terrible fun puns, we're growing - which means you'll have a chance to make your mark and grow with us. We're also almost 100% remote, and that might not appeal to everyone - but if you value flexibility, it's perfect.
Join us.
