Graphic Designer, Production
Yext (NYSE: YEXT) is building the next big thing in AI search, and the next big thing is answers.
With the explosion of information and data online, search has never been more important. However, while the world of consumer search has innovated over time, enterprise search has not. In fact, the majority of enterprise search is powered by outdated keyword technology that only scans for keywords and delivers a list of hyperlinks rather than actually answering questions. Yext, the AI Search Company, offers a modern, AI-powered Answers Platform that understands natural language so that when people ask questions about a business online they get direct answers – not links.
We have a big, audacious mission to transform the enterprise with AI search. To achieve that, we need bright minds and diverse perspectives to join our growing company and help us continue to disrupt an industry. Does this sound like you?
The Yext Creative Studio is a fun, passionate, hard-working, strategic, and growing creative agency within the Marketing team of a fast-paced and innovative AI search technology company. We believe that creative teams do so much more than make things “look pretty” and we work hard to deliver wildly creative strategic solutions that continue to elevate our brand and elevate it to the world. We support the entire company and work diligently to improve the manner in which our content, websites, thought leadership, blogs, print materials, brand campaigns, social media, and videos introduce customers, prospects, partners, and talent to Yext’s platform, solutions, and culture.
We are looking for a dynamic and curious designer with a mind for production and an eye for detail and optimization to join our growing team. The Graphic Designer in Production is a key contributor and skilled executor, responsible for producing and delivering polished designs for all of our initiatives across brand and digital experiences. This role will sit in our New York City HQ in the heart of the Meatpacking District.
Our dream candidate has stellar design skills and a love for the process of producing flawless deliverables and optimized workflows. You are dependable and crafty, and can execute at a high level. You feel comfortable producing graphics and assets, and never hesitate to jump in with a colleague to generate ideas, always driving the creative process forward. Above all, you experiment and learn by making the most of every opportunity to develop breakthrough designs. We love what we do, and we have fun doing it. If you relish the opportunity to join that kind of team, let’s talk.
