Accenture Song is seeking a Visual Design Manager to steer the visual direction across engagements, combining conceptual craftsmanship with hands-on production. In this role, youβll collaborate across client delivery, business development, and people & practice development to drive measurable impact and elevate design across brand identities, design systems, and digital experiences.
Responsibilities
- Lead the visual design direction on engagements (internal or clients) from concept through delivery, with accountability for design quality, aesthetic cohesion, and adherence to project timelines.
- Operate as a conceptual thinker who can translate abstract briefs, brand strategy, and audience insights into clear, compelling visual languages.
- Set and defend a high visual craft standard directing the creation of brand identities, design systems, motion, typography, illustration, and digital experiences.
- Both visionary and hands-on: define the creative direction while staying close to the work, shaping key design decisions and producing high-quality output alongside your team.
- Use AI tools to accelerate concepting, iteration, and production, and model how these tools can enhance, not replace, creative thinking.
- Serve as a leading creative voice in client discussions, confidently sharing your visual perspective and translating design rationale into strategic narratives that guide clients through complex, high-pressure decisions.
Requirements
- 7+ years of experience in Visual Design spanning a range of industries, brand types, platforms, and visual contexts.
- 4+ years:
- leading visual design engagements end-to-end, from creative concepting and visual strategy through to production-ready delivery.
- directing the creation of brand identities, design systems, typography, motion, illustration, and digital UI that demonstrate a strong and consistent visual voice.
- producing and directing high-fidelity visual work with exceptional attention to detail, including pixel-perfect deliverables and developer-ready specifications.
- 3+ years:
- directly managing or coaching visual designers, with demonstrated ability to develop contributors into stronger, more independent creative practitioners.
- working in agile and cross-functional environments, collaborating with product designers, product managers, engineers, and strategists to deliver cohesive experiences.
- delivering high-caliber visual design work that has shipped at scale, solved complex product or brand challenges, and driven measurable impact across customer experiences and business goals.
- Experience in ground visual design decisions with a deep understanding of user experience (UX). The best visual work should not only look right but also function well, guiding users intuitively through products and experiences while expressing a coherent brand point of view.
- Experience building and contributing to scalable design systems that ensure visual consistency across products, platforms, and channels.
- Experience embedding AI tools and workflows into visual design practices from concept generation and mood-boarding to rapid iteration and modeling AI-enabled ways of working for a team.
- Recent hands-on experience in design tools like Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Claude Design and relevant motion, illustration tools, or AI design tools. This is not a purely managerial role.
- Utilizing facilitation skills and creative presence; ability to present visual strategy and design rationale to senior client stakeholders and guide creative decisions under pressure.
