The Opportunity:
Junior Art Director
Pomelo Digital is a Gurugram-based creative and digital agency helping ambitious brands grow through strategy, campaigns, content, media, technology and execution. We have partnered with some of India's leading brands, with publicly featured work for n-SHIELD and Mastercraft by Nippon Paint, Spark Minda, Healthium Medtech, Dr. Morepen, Kenstar, Craftmodus and e-Galleria.
We are hiring a hands-on Junior Art Director to help shape the next standard of creative work at Pomelo. This is a maker-leader role: you will develop and present strong visual ideas, execute important work yourself, and guide a small group of 2–3 junior designers or video editors within an 11-person creative team.
What You Will Do
Translate brand, campaign and content briefs into clear visual concepts and compelling creative work.
Develop campaign moodboards, visual routes, storyboards and coherent systems across multiple formats.
Produce hands-on design work for digital campaigns, social, websites, mobile, activations, infographics, motion and promotional video.
Edit video in Premiere Pro and create motion graphics in After Effects when required.
Set visual direction for junior designers and editors, give specific feedback and maintain quality through delivery.
Partner with copywriters, strategists, data analysts, technologists and account teams.
Present and defend creative choices internally and, where required, with clients.
Use generative-AI image and video tools professionally, then art-direct, composite, correct and finish the output to a credible standard.
What You Need
Approximately 4+ years in a digital, advertising or comparable fast-paced creative agency.
Experience operating at senior visualizer, creative-lead or comparable level, including guiding junior creatives.
A strong portfolio showing conceptual campaigns, visual storytelling, typography, grid, composition and colour judgment—not only isolated social posts or UI screens.
Hands-on Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro and After Effects capability.
Professional experience using Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, Runway or comparable generative-AI tools in a real creative workflow.
Ability to explain your contribution to portfolio projects and the thinking behind key decisions.
Confidence presenting ideas, receiving feedback and balancing craft with deadlines.
Useful, But Not Required
Working knowledge of Figma.
Experience building shoot moodboards or supervising creative work on a shoot.
Familiarity with high-fidelity web mockups, UI/UX principles or HTML/CSS.
Location and Schedule
This is a full-time role based in Udyog Vihar, Gurugram.
Monday–Friday: on-site, 10:00 AM–7:00 PM
Saturday: work from home, 10:00 AM–7:00 PM
Please apply only if you can follow this schedule or relocate in time to join.
Compensation
₹50,000–₹75,000 per month, with flexibility up to ₹1,00,000 for an exceptional candidate whose portfolio and experience strongly match the role.
Pomelo Digital values diverse thinking and a high-trust, high-dignity working environment. We assess candidates on relevant evidence, creative judgment, collaboration and role fit.
