Creative Services Associate information

What is a creative services associate?

Creative Services Associates are professionals who support the creative departments within organizations, such as advertising agencies, marketing firms, or in-house creative teams. They typically assist with project coordination, managing schedules, preparing materials, and facilitating communication between clients and creative staff. Their goal is to ensure that creative projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the client's specifications. Creative Services Associates often work with designers, copywriters, and account managers to help bring creative ideas to life.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as a creative services associate?

To thrive as a Creative Services Associate, you need a strong background in graphic design, marketing, and project coordination, often supported by a relevant degree or equivalent experience. Proficiency with design software like Adobe Creative Suite and familiarity with project management tools such as Trello or Asana are typically required. Exceptional communication, time management, and collaboration skills help you excel in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment. These skills are crucial for delivering high-quality creative assets on time and ensuring brand consistency across all projects.

How does a creative services associate typically collaborate with other departments on projects?

Creative Services Associates often work closely with marketing, sales, and product teams to ensure branding and messaging are consistent across all materials. They participate in brainstorming sessions, gather feedback, and adjust creative assets based on input from stakeholders. Strong communication and project management skills are essential, as associates frequently juggle multiple projects and coordinate with diverse teams to meet tight deadlines. This collaborative environment helps ensure creative solutions align with broader business goals.

Description
Web and Digital Studio Lead (Associate I)
Alta Planning + Design seeks an experienced Web and Digital Studio Lead (Associate I) to lead and help grow the digital capabilities within our TDM Marketing & Creative Services team. This role is ideal for a hands-on technical leader who can guide a multidisciplinary digital team while also contributing directly to complex websites, web applications, data-driven tools, marketing technology solutions, integrations, and other digital products.
The Web and Digital Studio Lead will help shape how Alta approaches digital work across the firm, from client-facing websites and interactive tools to marketing technologies, data integrations, automation, and emerging digital services. The role combines technical leadership, team management, project delivery, and strategic development, with the opportunity to strengthen the systems, standards, and capabilities that support Alta's growing digital portfolio.

Our work spans branding, campaigns, communications, graphic design, digital strategy, websites, interactive tools, and technology-enabled experiences.
Within this team, the Web and Digital Studio supports web-based and digital products and services across Alta's client portfolio. The team partners closely with Marketing & Creative Services staff as well as planners, engineers, GIS specialists, civic data analysts, and project teams across the firm to create digital solutions that support both client needs and Alta's broader services. As our digital work expands, the team is increasingly working across full-stack development, data visualization, APIs and system integrations, marketing technologies, automation, GIS-enabled tools, and other emerging digital applications.

Workload Balancing & Operational Support (5%)
  • Manage the team's software, platform, and hosting subscriptions, including expense tracking and renewals
  • Maintain accurate inventories of websites, domains, hosting environments, and tools used by the team

Qualifications
Required
  • 7+ years of professional full-stack web development experience, including demonstrated leadership of complex web or digital projects from scoping through deployment
  • Prior people management experience, plus experience overseeing technical contractors or vendors
  • Expert-level comfort with core development tooling: VS Code (or similar), Git/GitHub, Docker, WSL or macOS, and CI/CD workflows
  • Advanced experience with the modern front-end ecosystem - JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, CSS/SASS, and frameworks like Vue, Nuxt, Astro, or Vite

  • Familiarity with dashboard/data visualization tools like Tableau
  • Experience with design/prototyping tools such as Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud
  • Strong client-facing and consultative skills - requirements gathering, discovery, and translating business goals into technical solutions
  • Proactive, clear communication skills, with the ability to explain technical tradeoffs and recommendations to technical and non-technical audiences alike
  • A genuine interest in sustainable transportation, active transportation, transportation demand management, or city planning
