The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Visa is hiring a Creative Director in Syracuse, NY.

• Role description

  We want a Creative Director with 12 years of experience turning briefs into bold, memorable creative. Everything here scales with you — $103,000 - $150,000 at 10 years, creative ownership soon after, and a Visa ladder above.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Salvage usable frames from a shoot the weather in Syracuse half-ruined
  • Frame the design rationale so director approvers feel smart agreeing with you
  • Storyboard and direct photo, video, and content shoots end to end
  • Tighten a loose deck until every slide earns its place in the contract pitch
  • Manage multiple creative projects simultaneously without missing deadlines
  • Frame each design decision in terms the Syracuse, NY sales floor can repeat

  What You'll Bring

  • Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team
  • Hands-on command of Maze, with Zeplin as a close second
  • Sharp written and verbal communication, tested under scrutiny
  • Proven aptitude for Figma, ideally near Syracuse, NY
  • Demonstrated calm when a Syracuse, NY client changes scope mid-stream

  You won't find Visa on every billboard, but inside creative circles across NY, this spirited-and-grounded team is well known. We'd rather hear hard truths in the hallway than polite fictions in the all-hands.

  Beyond $103,000 - $150,000, Visa offers a generous benefits package and the chance to lead projects that build your skills.
