Junior Art Director

Location: Barcelona

Starting date: ASAP


What about us?

We’re Dragons — a global creative agency working with bold brands to build relevance, cultural connection, and long-term impact through strategy-led creativity.

We specialize in bridging the Digital and Creative worlds through innovative creative solutions, working extensively in sectors like skincare, healthcare, fashion, lifestyle, and FMCG, amongst others.

We have international teams working from the US, Barcelona, Germany and the Benelux area, and we pride ourselves on our ability to drive results for our clients through strategic thinking, creative excellence, and meticulous execution.

We’re looking for a Junior Art Director with 2+ years of experience who is confident crafting visuals for digital skincare campaigns and social-first content. This role is hands-on: you’ll create layouts, adapt concepts to various platforms, and ensure the visual storytelling feels fresh and platform-native. You’ll collaborate closely with strategists, copywriters, motion designers, and senior creatives to bring campaigns to life. A curiosity for AI creative tools and how they can enhance modern workflows is a plus.


What You’ll Do


  • Contribute to concept development and art direction for digital and social campaigns.
  • Create and design key visuals (KVs), moodboards, and storyboards for campaigns.
  • Collaborate with designers, motion teams, and copywriters to bring ideas to life.
  • Maintain a consistent visual language across multiple formats and platforms (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, etc.).
  • Stay on top of digital culture and visual trends to keep campaigns modern and engaging.
  • Get hands-on: as a Junior Art Director, you’ll also be expected to design and execute assets yourself, not only direct.
