The role
The next person to make Raytheon's work feel alive instead of just finished is the Creative Director we're describing right now in Hartford. At Raytheon the $138,000 - $190,000 matters, sure, but so does owning the creative outcome with 10 years of Project Management behind it.
Key Responsibilities
- Prototype interactions in Heuristic Evaluation and refine them through usability testing
- Pitch the uncomfortable direction when the safe one has clearly run dry
- Present design rationale clearly to director stakeholders and clients
- Interrogate a brief until the real ask underneath it surfaces
- Reconcile legal's caveats with a layout that still breathes
- Push supportive design directions far enough to feel new, close enough to feel us
- Ensure all deliverables meet brand, accessibility, and platform standards
- Map where Responsive Design and Project Management overlap, then live in that messy middle
What You'll Bring
- A communication style that translates jargon back into plain English
- The judgment to distinguish a fire drill from an actual fire
- Experience translating Project Management complexity for a non-technical audience
- Reliable, accountable, and committed to following through
- An instinct for prioritization when everything is labeled urgent
- A collaborator's reflex to share credit and absorb blame
