Job description
The kind of Associate Art Director we're looking for:
You're early in your art direction career but you already think like a leader. You know how to take a strategic brief and turn it into something visually sharp, and you're hungry to learn what it takes to do that inside pharma and healthcare, where the craft has to hold up to both a client and a regulatory review.
You're not looking to just execute what someone else already figured out, you want to be in the room when the concept takes shape. If you've been pushing your design work past "good enough" and you're ready to grow into the person other people trust with a brand's visual direction, this is where that starts.
What you'll do
Lead art direction and execution of integrated campaigns across assigned pharma and healthcare brands, keeping every deliverable aligned to brand strategy and client objectives
Partner with Copy Supervisors and cross-functional teams to build creative that balances storytelling with scientific accuracy and regulatory compliance
Mentor Art Directors and Designers with direction, feedback, and real opportunities to grow
Present creative concepts to clients and internal teams, owning the strategic rationale behind the work
Guide projects from concept through final production without letting craft or consistency slip
Translate clinical data, customer insights, and market trends into visual work across print, digital, social, and omnichannel
Push for better, exploring new creative approaches and technologies rather than defaulting to what's safe
What this role is not
This isn't a purely hands-off management role, you're still expected to have a strong point of view on the work itself, not just delegate it. And it's not an entry point into pharma advertising, you should already know how MLR and regulatory review shape creative before you walk in.
What you bring
Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communications, Advertising, Fine Arts, or equivalent experience
2 years of advertising agency experience, pharma or healthcare marketing preferred
A portfolio showing conceptual thinking and integrated campaign work across print, digital, social, and omnichannel
Strong visual storytelling instincts grounded in branding, typography, layout, and design fundamentals
Excellent communication and presentation skills, comfortable defending creative rationale to clients directly
Proven experience mentoring creative talent while juggling multiple projects in a fast-paced agency environment
Proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud and working knowledge of pharma regulatory review (FDA, OPDP, PAAB, ASC); familiarity with AI-powered creative tools is a plus
The environment
P10 is remote-first, always has been. This role is open to candidates in the United States, with a preference for Eastern time zone. You'll be working inside a structure flat enough that your creative vision actually shapes client work.
Interested in working with us? Apply online today. For this role, a copy of your work portfolio will also be required for later interview stages.
Not an agency*
The layer-laden teams. The prehistoric processes. The impersonal, ego-driven dog-and-pony shows. Take what you think you know about agencies and burn it. P10 was born of the idea that if something isn't working—or could work better—change it. And that's exactly what we did. We know that what we're not makes us who we are. And we're not just another agency. We are people driven by a palpable passion and purpose, felt by our clients from the very first conversation.
P10 brings together a team of diverse, remote-only seasoned professionals to deliver exceptional value for our clients. Dare to do something different - join us.
