Art Director (AI-Driven, Hospitality)

Founded in 2018, Ebb & Flow Group is a fast-growing Singapore-based hospitality group dedicated to building distinctive brands and delivering exceptional dining experiences. Leveraging AI and technology to drive growth and scale, our portfolio includes award-winning and culture-forward concepts like temper. Wine Room & Lounge, one Michelin-starred Willow, Casa Vostra and Carlitos. The Opportunity : We are seeking an Art Director (AI-driven, Hospitality) to both set the creative vision and bring it to life across our diverse portfolio of F&B brands and outlets. This is a hands-on role for someone with sharp taste and an obsessive eye for craft, and who understands that AI is now core infrastructure for creative work, not a side tool. Working closely with internal teams, you will design campaigns, restaurant revamps and new brand worlds, and harness AI to shorten production timelines without compromising on quality. Key Responsibilities : • Design and produce creative assets across digital and print platforms – menus, posters, social media content, EDMs, packaging, signage and promotional materials – while setting the art direction that ensures every output reflects a sharp, considered aesthetic. • Lead branding and visual identity development for restaurant revamps and new outlet launches, from concept through to in-store execution. • Set and safeguard visual standards and brand consistency across all outlets and marketing touchpoints, acting as the final gatekeeper of creative quality. • Build and continuously refine an AI-driven creative workflow – using the latest generative tools to dramatically increase output speed and iteration quality across concepting, mood boarding, asset production and content creation. • Partner closely with the Marketing, Operations and Management teams to translate business priorities into strong creative concepts and campaigns. • Direct photography, styling and visual storytelling for campaigns and launches, briefing and reviewing external photographers, videographers and vendors where needed. • Personally prepare production-ready artwork and files for print vendors, suppliers and external contractors, maintaining exacting quality control on your own output. • Manage multiple high-stakes design projects simultaneously, protecting both speed and craft in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment. • Stay ahead of design, hospitality, AI and social media trends, and translate them into fresh, differentiated creative ideas for the portfolio. • Maintain and organise creative assets, design files and brand materials as a single source of truth. Qualifications : • Minimum 4–6 years of experience in graphic design, branding or art direction, with a track record of owning creative output end-to-end (experience in F&B, hospitality or lifestyle brands is a plus). • Excellent, hands-on command of Photoshop and Illustrator, and comfortable working in Canva. • AI-native: you use AI daily, treat it as a core creative and productivity lever, and have real hands-on fluency across the latest models, tools and platforms – Midjourney, RunwayML, Higgsfield, TopazLabs, Grok, NanoBanana, Kling and others – to move faster without sacrificing quality. • An exceptional, sharp portfolio demonstrating strong art direction, branding, typography, layout and social-first design – not just execution, but a clear point of view and taste. • An uncompromising eye for aesthetics, detail and visual storytelling, with the judgement to know when something isn't good enough yet. • Proven ability to deliver at speed – making fast, confident creative decisions and producing high-quality work under tight timelines. • Strong organisational and time management skills, able to direct multiple concurrent projects without compromising quality. • Ability to work independently and set direction, while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams. • Solid understanding of print production and file preparation processes. • Photography, videography or content direction experience will be a strong advantage. Perks : • A team that values taste, speed, and accountability • Career development in one of Singapore’s most exciting hospitality groups • Staff discount across all dining concepts in Singapore • Work-from-anywhere on Mondays • Medical & Dental Coverage • Birthday Leave
