Description

We believe a single frame can do the work of a thousand words, so 3M is hiring an Art Director who knows which frame to choose. With 10 years of experience under your belt, you'll step into a freelance position paying $120,000 - $174,000 where ownership and momentum matter.

Key Responsibilities

  • Frame each design decision in terms the Tuscaloosa, AL sales floor can repeat
  • Wring a campaign system from an one-line creative tagline
  • Choreograph the handoff so nothing data-honest gets lost between studio and dev
  • Resurface old 3M archives for motifs worth a second, sharper life
  • Shape brand voice across every touchpoint our Tuscaloosa customers actually notice

What You'll Bring

  • The kind of curiosity that reads the docs before asking
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Resilience measured across 10 years of creative cycles
  • Real curiosity about why 3M customers do what they do
  • Adaptability and resilience when facing shifting requirements
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, innovative environment

At 3M, the unfussy Tuscaloosa crew believes creative should feel boring and reliable, never thrilling and fragile. Mistakes get dissected for lessons at 3M, never weaponized in your next review.

Lead with the number, $120,000 - $174,000, then add a growth track, a mentor, full benefits, and hours that bend toward your Tuscaloosa life.

Right this second, the Art Director opening at 3M is taking resumes.
