Looking to combine your graphic design skills with hands-on art direction?
We’re seeking an Art Director who can operate in both worlds—guiding photoshoots from pre-production through on-set direction, contributing to video concepting, and delivering high-quality design work across digital and print.
This role reports directly to the Creative Director of Art Direction for Amazon Fresh. This position resides at Whole Foods Market headquarters, and your focus will be on both Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods Market grocery brands.

In this role, you’ll develop marketing campaigns, collaborating with stakeholders across the organization to ensure both brands are consistently represented at a high level across all platforms. You’ll play a role in both the strategic ideation and the execution of high-impact marketing assets from online to in store.
We are a people-first company, and big egos don’t work out here. We thrive on collaboration and have a laid-back, hard-working culture that values self-responsibility and earning trust. We’re a supportive, positive, eclectic group of creative misfits. The right candidate for this role will not just fit into our culture, but add to it.

Lastly, you must have a portfolio of blow-me-away design skills. If you’re passionate about food—from talking about it, to photographing it, to selling it with fun and beautiful work, we’d love to hear from you.

Portfolio required for candidate consideration.
