Job Description

We’re looking for an Art Director Intern at our Toronto office who thinks in big ideas and sees the world in stills and storyboards. Your camera roll is full of type, your Pinterest is pure moodboards, and your imagination’s always on overdrive.

If that sounds like you, let’s connect.

We are INNOCEAN , a creatively ambitious, ever-evolving agency that’s excited to bring on an Art Director Intern ready to learn, grow, and create work that breaks through. You’ll join a team that believes in bold ideas, killer craft, and the power of collaboration.

As an Art Director Intern, you’ll help concept and execute campaigns across digital, social, print, and more. You’ll be paired with a Copywriter Intern and work closely with other creatives, strategists, and account leads to bring ideas to life.

What you’ll do:

• Collaborate with Copywriters, Creative Directors, and Art Directors to develop standout ideas and executions.
• Contribute to creative campaigns across digital, social, print, experiential, and branding.
• Explore visual directions and storytelling approaches that push the work forward.
• Take part in brainstorms and creative work sessions.
• Stay on top of design, advertising, and culture trends to keep ideas fresh.
• Help prepare decks and mock-ups to bring concepts to life for client presentations.

What we’re looking for:

• Students in their final year of study in advertising, marketing, creative, or related programs.
• A portfolio (student or personal projects welcome!) that shows you know how to tell a story visually and conceptually.
• A strong sense of visual design, layout, and composition.
• The ability to think creatively within brand guidelines (and know when to challenge them).
• Familiarity with Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign); bonus if you dabble in motion.
• A collaborative attitude, openness to feedback, and a hunger to learn.
• A love of advertising, branding, pop culture, and creative problem solving.

What you’ll love about working at INNOCEAN Canada:

• People-first and inclusive of all – we’re proud to be recognized by ‘Great Places to Work’ - three years in a row and counting – overall, as well as for youth, inclusion, and as a Best Place to Work for Women.
• Flexible hybrid work set up, with an awesome space at King Street West for collaboration and team get-togethers.
• Coaching and mentorship in your day-to-day to fuel your growth.
