    Unfortunately, making the jump usually requires changing companies. Yes, it's always great to rise through the ranks in one place, but that's not always possible when you need to jump. That being said, start building out your work so it's more than just an execution here and there; start designing systems. Junior designers rarely get to work on the big picture like the AD, so you kind of have to just wing it unless you're picking up some decent freelance work. Once you have a great portfolio, keep your eye out for a position.
