Creative Director

You don't decorate ideas, you build them, and that distinction is exactly why Community Excellence Foundation is searching for a Creative Director in Sioux Falls, SD. A Creative Director seat that takes 11 years of Motion Design seriously, pays $102,000 - $160,000, and hands over the creative reins.

Key Responsibilities

• Build the data-honest pitch deck that wins the $102,000 - $160,000 account in the room
• Write microcopy that does the heavy lifting buttons usually get blamed for
• Time the reveal in a launch film so the logo lands earned, not slapped on
• Audit existing creative for the generously-mentoring inconsistencies nobody flagged sooner
• Support director designers through critique, mentorship, and shared best practices
• Engineer a template system flexible enough to survive Community Excellence Foundation's rebrand
• Compose social cuts that read clearly with the sound off

What You'll Bring

• 10+ years putting Adobe After Effects to work in a creative setting
• 12 years of learning when to trust the process and when to break it
• Enough Adobe After Effects to be dangerous, enough Storyboarding to be trusted
• 12 years that taught you which corners can be cut
• The integrity to flag your own mistakes first
• Resilience measured across 11 years of creative cycles

For all its forward-thinking ambition, Community Excellence Foundation still operates like the scrappy Sioux Falls startup that first cracked creative years ago. Autonomy here comes with a partner: ask for help the moment you're stuck on Color Theory.

Lead with the number, $102,000 - $160,000, then add a growth track, a mentor, full benefits, and hours that bend toward your Sioux Falls life.

Re-dated this morning, Community Excellence Foundation continues hiring for the Creative Director role.
