ABOUT BARK
Here at BARK, we love dogs and their people. We’re looking to make all dogs happy throughout the entire world (we’re not kidding). Think Disney for dogs -- we make magic for dogs and their people through our products, events, and experiences.
Our ambition level is high, the opportunity is huge, and our love for dogs is through the roof! We launched in 2011 with BarkBox, a monthly-themed subscription of all-natural treats and clever toys. Since then, we've shipped more than 70 million toys and treats to dogs across the world and use all of that direct customer feedback to inform new initiatives and ways to make magic between dogs and their people. We’ve since expanded into other offerings as well, as we aim to become THE Dog Company for every family with a four-legged, belly-scratch-loving, interspecies family member.
THE TEAM
The Creative Marketing Team uses emotion, energy, humor, and creative best practices to tell the BARK story in communications and persuade folks to get BARK products. For both existing subscribers and potential prospects, every ad and email we make aims to not only convert dog parents but also entertain them -- and maybe make them fall in love, just a little (Ok, not a little a lot - go big or go home). We aim to illustrate the BARK experience, showing that when it comes to making dogs happy, we’re the most qualified! That means we're a group of kind, collaborative, and creative weirdos. If being fun and weird about dogs sounds like you, come join us!
WHO WE’RE SNIFFING FOR
We’re on the lookout for an experienced Art Director who is passionate about dogs (obviously!) and ready to lead the charge in all things creative. You’ll oversee a wide range of creative projects across multiple business channels, ensuring top-notch visuals and a seamless brand experience across everything from digital marketing to retail campaigns. You must be equally comfortable creating and developing content using generative AI, directing photo and video shoots, collaborating with designers, and working closely with freelance talent and offshore resources. Oh, and did we mention? You must love dogs.
