Role Overview Mint Source is hiring a Senior Graphic Designer (Static Ads) to join a performance creative agency that produces scroll-stopping static ads for e-commerce brands in health, apparel, pet, and fitness, so those brands can scale their ad spend profitably. Their style is unconventional and humor-driven, and every ad they ship starts on a designer's screen. You'll design ads using a range of typography styles and layouts that stop the scroll and communicate fast. The role leans 80% independent work with focused collaboration alongside other designers. This is a senior seat on an established design team: the brief and the daily quota are the same as for every designer, and what sets you apart is the level of craft you bring to each composite and how quickly you get there. Success looks like consistently hitting weekly quotas of approved designs with minimal revisions while maintaining quality, consistency, and speed. It's a great fit if you enjoy rapid creative testing, smart constraints, and using AI extensively to accelerate your work.
