Why this role exists

Justlife is the on-demand home services platform helping people across the UAE & KSA get their time back. Our marketing reaches a fast-growing audience every day, and our creative output now moves faster than our design capacity. We're hiring a Junior Art Director to help us produce high-volume, high-quality work — and to grow into a designer whose taste and ideas shape the brand, not just keep up with it.

You'll report to the Creative Marketing Manager and work as an individual contributor inside a small, skilled team that ships daily. This role moves fast and ships a lot — throughput is a core expectation — but we hire people who treat speed and craft as the same discipline, not a trade-off.

What you'll own

Produce a high volume of visual assets across marketing campaigns, CRM, social, performance ads, in-app banners, and brand communication — at speed, without dropping quality or consistency.
Take briefs from concept to clean final files: research references, explore directions, design, adapt across formats, and deliver production-ready assets.
Use AI tools as a core part of your workflow — research, ideation, image generation, production — to move faster and explore more, without outsourcing your design judgment.
Partner with marketing, product, and other teams: understand the brief, ask the right questions, deliver clear visual solutions.
Protect brand consistency across every touchpoint. Quality, accuracy, and on-time delivery are non-negotiable.
Give and take feedback well, learn fast, and jump in wherever the team needs design help.

What great looks like in 6 months

You handle a significant share of day-to-day marketing design independently, delivering high-quality assets on schedule and consistently fast.
You know the Justlife brand inside out and apply it confidently across channels.
You use AI tools fluently to increase your speed and range.
You communicate clearly with stakeholders across the business.
You've started bringing ideas to the table — spotting directions, suggesting references, offering solutions instead of only executing.

How we measure success

Throughput: consistently high volume of assets delivered on time, every time.
Turnaround: creative requests move faster because of how you work.
Quality: visual consistency holds across all touchpoints, even at speed.
Independence: you manage day-to-day tasks with minimal supervision.
Communication: clear, proactive updates with team and stakeholders.
Ideas: you contribute creative direction, not just execution.

Must-haves

A portfolio that demonstrates strong fundamentals: layout, typography, composition, branding, and visual consistency across a range of work.
Strong design eye and an instinct for what "on-brand" and "high-quality" mean in practice.
Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite.
Comfortable using AI tools for research, ideation, image generation, and workflow speed.
Ability to produce high-quality work at volume and pace in a fast-moving marketing environment.
Good English: you understand briefs, ask sharp questions, and explain design decisions clearly.
2–4 years of design experience.
Proactive, coachable, and fast-learning.
Bachelor's degree in design or a related field preferred (a strong portfolio outweighs formal education).

Nice-to-haves

Motion graphics or basic animation for social, CRM, and campaign assets.
Strong grasp of social formats, trends, and what makes content visually engaging.
Video editing, motion templates, or turning statics into animated formats.
Genuine interest in marketing, digital campaigns, and pushing creative boundaries with new tools.
