About the role

Fortis is on a mission to create games where players truly belong — and Twilight Towers is now in soft launch. As Senior Design Manager, you will play a critical role in scaling the game toward global launch by owning live-ops and content systems while multiplying the effectiveness of the design team. This role is intentionally hybrid. You will combine hands-on design ownership with people leadership and production fluency, taking responsibility for key live-game systems (events, content frameworks, progression-facing features) and using that ownership to increase team throughput, quality, and cross-discipline efficiency. Partnering closely with the Game Director and senior leadership, you will turn high-level goals into clear, actionable design plans, manage and develop junior and mid-level designers, and ensure work moves smoothly from concept through implementation and live iteration. Success in this role means taking meaningful ownership off senior leaders’ plates and making the team faster, clearer, and more effective as Twilight Towers scales.

What you’ll achieve

You will partner with the Game Director and cross-disciplinary leads to:

• Own live-ops and content systems for Twilight Towers, including event design, content frameworks, progression-facing features, and related tuning and iteration.
• Lead and manage a sub-team of designers, increasing overall team efficiency and enabling scale by coaching, mentoring, and setting clear expectations.
• Translate high-level product and business goals into clear, implementable design specifications that unblock engineering, art, and production.
• Hold the quality bar for your ownership area by reviewing work, giving concrete feedback, and guiding designers toward stronger solutions.
• Improve cross-discipline execution by proactively coordinating dependencies (e.g., asset needs, scope boundaries, production timing).
• Contribute to live-game decision-making by analyzing player data, KPIs, and feedback, and rapidly iterating on designs in partnership with Product and Analytics.
• Build and share expertise in mobile F2P best practices, live-ops excellence, and the evolving competitive landscape.

What you’ll need to be successful

• Proven experience owning live-ops or content systems in a mobile game-as-a-service environment.
• Define and evolve what “good” looks like, establishing shared principles, techniques, and working norms that raise quality, clarity, and decision-making across the team.
• Strong applied design judgment, with fluency across systems, content, and experiential design, and depth in at least one area.
• Comfort designing from first principles, with a working understanding of player psychology, economies, progression, and retention mechanics.
• Ability to own and deliver scoped areas of the game independently, making decisions without constant oversight.
• Demonstrated people leadership: experience managing, coaching, and developing junior or mid-level designers.
• Production fluency: ability to work cross-functionally and translate design intent into clear, actionable inputs for engineering, art, and production.
• Clear communication and decision-making skills, with the confidence to set direction, prioritize trade-offs, and move work forward.
• Strong understanding of mobile F2P, live-ops cadence, and contemporary market best practices.
• Experience with merge, tower defence, or adjacent genres is a strong plus

About the Role

As a Senior Art Director, you'll be a hands-on creative force within a multidisciplinary team led by the Group Creative Director. You’ll help bring big ideas to life, executing standout work across digital, social, and video with a sharp eye for craft, storytelling, and design excellence.

This role sits in the details — designing, building, and refining creative assets — while contributing to broader campaign narratives and visual systems. You’ll collaborate closely with Creative Directors, Designers, Copywriters, Producers, and Strategists to deliver work that feels native to the platform, on-brand for a major client (one of the world’s leading e-commerce and technology platforms), and scalable across markets.

We’re looking for a Senior Art Director who is fluent in digital design, strong in visual storytelling, and comfortable creating high-quality work at speed. You’ll bring both conceptual thinking and pixel-perfect execution, along with AI fluency to help evolve and activate an established brand system across multiple sub-brands and channels.

This is not a role focused on building new brands from scratch. It’s about taking an existing brand system and bringing it to life — pushing it forward thoughtfully, expressing it with clarity and consistency, and elevating the work at scale. You’ll operate within a complex, multi-brand ecosystem, creating concepts, visual systems, and executions that feel fresh while remaining unmistakably on-brand.

Working Hours
This role is remote, but the team operates on Pacific Time (PST/PDT). Candidates must be able to work primarily within these hours.

** This is a 3–6 month temporary role with the potential to be extended or converted to a full-time position.

Responsibilities:

• Create and execute visual concepts across digital, social, and video formats.
• Develop layouts, mockups, prototypes, and production-ready assets with a high level of polish.
• Safeguard visual quality across all deliverables, maintaining consistency with Amazon’s design system and narrative tone of voice (“Charm and Disarm”).
• Contribute to style frames and visual systems that scale across formats, regions, and channels.
  
• Support campaign storytelling through visual development and storyboarding.
• Help translate creative briefs into compelling visual narratives, particularly for motion, film, and animation-based work.
• Partner with Copywriters and Creative Directors to ensure ideas land clearly and emotionally.
  
• Use AI tools daily to support concepting, exploration, and iteration
• Generate AI visual options efficiently without compromising brand accuracy
• Apply strong judgment to when AI is helpful and when traditional craft is better
  
• Work closely with the Group Creative Director and broader creative team to execute campaigns from concept through delivery.
• Collaborate with Strategists, Account Leads, and Producers to ensure creative aligns with project goals and timelines.
• Participate in daily stand-ups and creative reviews to maintain alignment and momentum.
• Use Figma confidently for collaborative design, layout development, and feedback cycles.
  
• Help produce assets at scale using tools and workflows, including AI-assisted production.
• Contribute ideas to improve creative processes, templates, and efficiencies.
• Stay current on design trends, platform best practices, and emerging creative formats.
  
• Maintain high standards across all outputs, ensuring thoughtful design, strong storytelling, and attention to detail.
• Take ownership of assigned deliverables from start to finish.
  

About You

The essentials:

• 5+ years of experience as a Senior Designer, Lead Designer, or Art Director within agency, advertising, or production environments
• Strong portfolio demonstrating both conceptual thinking and hands-on execution across digital, social, and video
• Advanced proficiency in Photoshop and Figma, with experience creating high-volume digital assets at speed
• Proven experience working within and evolving established brand systems across multiple formats and channels
• Strong foundation in typography, layout, composition, visual hierarchy, and storytelling
• Fluency in AI tools within a design workflow (e.g., Midjourney, Runway, etc.) — using AI as an amplifier for craft and iteration, not a shortcut
• A strong visual and photographic eye, with attention to realism, detail, and brand consistency
• Ability to balance speed and quality in a fast-paced, high-output environment
• Comfortable working in collaborative, cross-functional teams and presenting ideas internally and to clients
• Strong English communication skills and experience working with global teams

What sets you apart:

• A systems thinker who can translate brand guidelines into scalable, high-quality creative across channels
• Comfortable iterating quickly and adapting work based on feedback without being overly attached to a single direction
• Curious and up to date with visual culture, trends, and emerging tools
• Hands-on across the full design process — not limited to retouching or a single discipline
• Positive, collaborative, and proactive in contributing ideas

Nice to have:

• Film or animation production experience, including storyboarding and narrative development

At Monks, we believe in fostering an environment where a diversity of perspectives can thrive. We proactively work to design hiring processes that promote equity and inclusion while mitigating bias.

EPIC JOB + EPIC BENEFITS = EPIC LIFE

In 1954, architect Eero Saarinen designed a radically modern bank branch for Irwin Union in Columbus, Indiana. With glass walls, no private offices, and a floor plan that invited openness, it embodied a new kind of transparency in finance. The building was surrounded by trees, furnished by Herman Miller, and featured rustic brick flooring. Today, that space is a conference center, and that spirit of design-forward thinking in banking feels almost extinct.

Mercury believes that level of care and craft in design has been lost in modern finance and we’re building a brand that brings it back. We're a financial technology company building products that feel extraordinary to use. We help people and businesses accomplish more with their money by turning banking* from a frustration into a catalyst for their ambitions.

We’re looking for an Art Director to help shape how Mercury shows up visually, emotionally, and creatively across our brand campaigns, website, social, and more. Someone who thrives in a highly collaborative environment where the best ideas drive progress, not the most powerful voices in the room. 

*Mercury is a fintech company, not an FDIC-insured bank. Banking services provided through Choice Financial Group and Column N.A., Members FDIC.

In this role, you’ll:

• Lead the creative development of large-scale visual storytelling that brings Mercury to life in expressive ways.
• Ensure campaigns connect seamlessly across formats from out-of-home and experiential moments to digital placements, paid social, and performance marketing ads with coherence and craft across every touchpoint.
• Contribute and translate complex brand strategy into simple, magnetic visual stories that connect with Mercury’s audience of founders and builders.
• Concept, design, and art-direct campaigns that translate Mercury’s voice and visual system into bold, emotionally resonant, and culturally attuned experiences. You’ll work cross-functionally with brand leadership, copywriting, motion, and performance marketing to craft work that’s impossible to ignore and unmistakably Mercury.
• Design across scales from the macro impact of a citywide takeover to the micro craft of typography, layout, and color harmony.
• Collaborate with external agencies, photographers, and illustrators to bring ambitious creativity to life with quality and precision.
• Champion craft and clarity in every deliverable from the initial sketch to final production files.
• Effectively balance multiple projects, from concepting through to final execution, managing timelines with clarity and calm.
• Collaborate proactively and communicate effectively in an environment that values diverse perspectives, creativity, and innovation.

What you’ll bring:

• 7–10 years of experience in brand design, art direction, or visual communication, ideally with a mix of in-house and agency experience.
• A strong portfolio that demonstrates conceptual range, systems thinking, and refined visual execution across print and environmental formats.
• Deep understanding of typography, composition, and storytelling principles.
• A proactive problem-solving drive, ability to manage multiple deliverables, and ease in receiving or handing off projects.
• Experience leading campaigns from concept through production, including managing vendors, testing proofs, and navigating print or fabrication logistics.
• Comfort working autonomously and collaboratively in a fast-moving, high-ownership environment.
• A sharp eye for craft, but also for cultural and conceptual applications, you design for resonance, not decoration.
• Strong communication skills, able to clearly articulate concepts, ideas, and creative decisions to internal teams and external partners.
• Passion for mentoring other designers and cross-functional partners to enhance our creative execution.

The total rewards package at Mercury includes base salary, equity, and benefits.

Our salary and equity ranges are highly competitive within the SaaS and fintech industry and are updated regularly using the most reliable compensation survey data for our industry. New hire offers are made based on a candidate’s experience, expertise, geographic location, and internal pay equity relative to peers.

Our target new hire base salary ranges for this role are the following:

• US employees outside of the New York City, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Seattle: $138,800 - $173,500

What You Will Be Doing

As a Senior Consultant, you'll be a driving force in our Canadian practice — leading high-impact client engagements, shaping analytical strategy, and setting the standard for delivery excellence on our founding team. You won't just surface insights; you'll own the client relationship, structure the narrative, and be directly accountable for outcomes that move the needle for major global brands.

This is a high-visibility role with real scope from day one. You'll partner with senior client stakeholders across Canada's most dynamic industries — financial services, retail, CPG, telecoms, and beyond — bringing clarity to ambiguous problems and translating sophisticated data work into decisions that executives act on. You'll also help define what Artefact looks like in Canada — contributing to proposals, developing thought leadership, and actively building our market presence from the ground up.

Key responsibilities include:

• Defining client needs through in-depth discovery — conducting structured interviews with client teams and technology partners to surface the real problem beneath the stated one
• Performing advanced data analysis and rigorous research to solve high-impact, strategic challenges that matter to our clients' bottom lines
• Building, formulating, and presenting data-driven strategic recommendations that are compelling, actionable, and boardroom-ready
• Developing new business proposals that win — translating Artefact's capabilities into clear, persuasive value propositions for prospective clients across the Canadian market
• Contributing to thought leadership and content development on business-relevant topics, including Artefact-published research, articles, and business cases
• Taking full ownership of project delivery — ensuring workstreams are aligned, on schedule, and meeting client expectations, with support from a Manager or Director
• Mentoring and developing junior consultants and interns, actively investing in the talent pipeline that will define our Canadian team

What We Are Looking For

We're looking for proven leaders and sharp thinkers who are ready to make their mark — people who bring a point of view, thrive in ambiguity, and hold themselves accountable to outcomes, not just outputs. As a senior member of our founding Canadian team, you'll help define what excellence looks like at Artefact in this market. We'll give you the platform and the tools to do your best work — and you'll arrive ready with the following:

• Undergraduate degree with strong academic performance; advanced degree (MBA or MSc in a quantitative field) is a significant asset
• 3–5 years of full-time experience in one or more of the following: consulting, data/analytics, marketing, advertising, finance, or tech — with a clear track record of client-facing delivery and independent problem-solving
• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills; you can represent Artefact with confidence and credibility at the senior client level
• Demonstrated ability to lead and collaborate across diverse, multicultural teams; strong intercultural communication skills are essential in our global environment
• Bilingualism (English/French) is a significant asset, particularly for client engagement in Quebec and federal markets
• Advanced proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint; experience with SQL, Python, or R is a strong differentiator
• Genuine passion for data, digital, and the broader tech and AI economy — you follow this space because you love it, not because you have to
• A natural teaching orientation and demonstrated ability to mentor junior team members; you make the people around you better
• Deep knowledge of strategy consulting and/or digital marketing — within a consultancy, start-up, or agency — is highly desirable
• Familiarity with Canada's regulatory and data privacy landscape (PIPEDA, Bill 64/Law 25) is a meaningful asset

Why You Should Join Us

At this stage in your career, you have options. Here's what makes Artefact different:

Real ownership, right away. We're building our Canadian practice, which means your contributions don't disappear into a bureaucracy — they shape the trajectory of an entire market. The decisions you make now will define how Artefact grows across Canada.

Work that's actually at the frontier. Our clients aren't asking yesterday's questions. You'll be tackling problems where AI and advanced analytics are actively reshaping industries — and you'll be expected to lead that conversation with Canada's most ambitious organizations.

A global network that makes you better. With 36 offices worldwide, you'll tap into methodologies, expertise, and colleagues across every major market. Our scale gives you resources; our culture gives you autonomy. You'll bring global best practices to the Canadian market — and contribute Canadian insights back to the world.

We are united by our values and strengthened by our hybrid expertise:

• There is always a way — We're builders, diggers, and makers. Ideas only count if they get executed.
• Client trust is won in the field — We show up where it matters, working side by side with our clients to solve what's real.
• If not used, it is useless — We build for adoption and impact. True brilliance is measured by what changes, not what's delivered.
• If not shared, our work is not done — Sharing knowledge is how we close the loop — for our clients and for each other.
• We learn every day — In a field moving at the speed of light, intellectual curiosity isn't optional. It's survival.

Compensation & Benefits

The estimated base compensation for this role is $100,000 – $145,000 CAD. Individual compensation is determined by skills, qualifications, and experience. In addition, this role is eligible for a competitive benefits package including performance bonuses, professional development support, and flexible work arrangements.
