Full job description

Buck Mason is looking for a junior to mid-level Art Director to join the Women's creative team. The ideal candidate is a creative storyteller and clear communicator with exceptional taste and attention to detail. You bring an entrepreneurial mindset, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and are eager to grow within a dynamic, evolving company. You have a love for American classics and a passion for concepting and executing timeless imagery that embodies the ethos of a California brand.

Reporting to the Senior Art Director, you'll serve as her right-hand partner — playing an integral role in bringing the women's visual identity to life across every touchpoint, from campaign and lookbook to ecomm, email, social, and paid. You'll work closely together on both the pre- and post-production sides of photoshoots, and take ownership of image selects and sequencing across all platforms. This role offers significant room for growth inside a brand with a clear and deeply considered point of view.


What you'll do:

Art Direction

  • Support the Senior Art Director on seasonal campaign and lookbook development — contributing to moodboards, casting research, backdrop and prop sourcing, and location planning

  • Partner with the Senior AD to build and plan shotlists for campaigns, lookbooks, and ecomm shoots

  • Lead video art direction for lookbook and campaign shoots — including filming style references, look coverage planning, and on-set video direction

  • Provide on-set support across all shoot types

    • Image Selects & Post-Production

    • Audit on-set selects at the start of post-production — verifying all required frames are captured, flagging missing coverage, and ensuring product colors are accurately represented

    • Own retouching notes end-to-end, managing multiple rounds of feedback with external retouchers

    • Sequence final imagery across all platforms — ecomm, email, Instagram, paid ads, and print — with an eye for visual rhythm, storytelling, and platform context

    • Manage final asset handoff to the ecomm manager

      • Ecomm & Site

      • Own the full ecomm imagery pipeline from post-production through to site upload

      • Conduct regular PDP and collection page audits; flag and resolve missing or outdated assets

      • Support homepage and collection page updates in Figma

        • Email & Paid

        • Gather and prepare image assets for women's email campaigns and paid ads

        • Review imagery in context of email layouts and paid ad templates; flag updates as needed

          • Social

          • Support Instagram grid planning and sequencing

          • Prepare assets for Stories and Reels as directed


What we're looking for:

  • 2–4 years of art direction or creative experience at a fashion or lifestyle brand

  • A passionate creative storyteller with a strong, developing aesthetic and genuine enthusiasm for photography, styling, and visual communication

  • Exceptional taste and attention to detail — you notice everything and care about getting it right

  • Proficiency in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Capture One, and Frame.io; familiarity with Asana or similar project management tools

  • Highly organized and able to manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously in a fast-paced environment

  • A collaborative, low-ego working style; eager to grow and execute under direction while developing your own creative voice

  • Curiosity — about design history, photography, culture, and what makes a brand feel distinct

  • A genuine love for American classics and the California ethos that drives everything we make



Sasha Koehn and Erik Allen Ford founded Buck Mason in 2013 to simplify the American wardrobe. Meeting as neighbors in Venice Beach, they started designing and selling clothes out of a small studio off Abbot Kinney Boulevard. Sasha built the website and Erik created the brand's first collection of jeans and tees. Taking an architectural approach to design, they built each piece to last far beyond a single season. Obsessed with quality, they worked with local mills and factories to create the finest fabrics down to the thread. Today, Buck Mason offers a broad range of clothing and accessories with a continued commitment to making high-quality, modern American classics.
