Freelance Art Director - Part-time, Contract
About Kinn Kinn is a modern heirloom fine jewelry brand. For the past seven years we've brought storytelling and personal meaning back into the jewelry people wear every day — celebrating a woman's many moments lived. We're a small, founder-led brand team that cares deeply about taste, craft, and how the brand shows up in the world.
The Role
We're looking for a freelance Art Director to join our Brand team on a part-time contract basis, starting as coverage during a team member's leave (roughly 1–2 months).
This is a hybrid creative role. You'll lead art direction and on-set production for our campaigns and help shape how the brand comes alive on social. We're not looking for someone purely executional — we want a creative partner who brings fully formed ideas, anticipates rather than waits to be briefed, and has a point of view on how brand translates into content.
You'll work closely with our Head of Brand and Founder, and ideally you're someone who's as comfortable directing a shoot as you are thinking about how that campaign lives across the grid.
What you'll do
Art Direction & Production
- Concept and lead visual direction for campaigns, product launches, and digital activations
- Build moodboards, references, shot lists, and visual treatments
- Direct photo and video shoots on set — lighting, composition, styling, props
- Manage shoot logistics: call sheets, scheduling, file prep, vendor coordination
- Guide post-production: selects, editing notes, pacing, and final visual polish
Social & Content Direction
- Lead the creative direction of how the brand shows up on social
- Help shape how campaigns are conceived for social — not just adapted to it afterward
- Partner with our social team to elevate content beyond "posting on the grid" into intentional, brand-right storytelling
- Bring strategic input on how brand and social work together
You might be a fit if you
- Have proven experience art-directing photo and video shoots, ideally in fashion, beauty, jewelry, or a premium lifestyle brand
- Are genuinely passionate about social — how brand comes alive there and how to art-direct properly across the channel
- Bring strong taste and judgment, and can protect the brand while moving fast
- Are a self-starter who sees around corners and creates momentum
- Can be on set and in our office as needed
Details
- Type: Freelance / Contract, part-time
- Hours: ~20–30 hours/week (flexes with production schedule)
- Duration: ~1–2 months coverage, with potential to extend
- Location: Hybrid — minimum 1–2 days/week in office, plus on-set days as needed
- Reporting to: Head of Brand
- Compensation: Commensurate with experience
