Role Description: 

We’re seeking a seasoned Senior Brand & Web Designer with a hybrid skill set across web, social, digital, event, and presentation design, who excels at translating marketing goals into polished, on-brand visual deliverables.
This senior-level role combines hands-on execution with campaign planning support. You will draft creative briefs and propose visual directions for campaigns and initiatives, review them with the Creative Director for final strategic decisions, and then own the creation of approved assets. You will be expected to uphold brand standards across your work, as well as contribute ideas to refine and evolve the brand expression where necessary. Success in this role means producing accurate, production-ready work that meets business goals, is easy to collaborate on, and requires minimal rework. 

This is a remote opportunity with broad ownership and impact across social, advertising, sales, event, and website functions.

Responsibilities:

  • Deliver work on a timely and consistent basis, using the best-fit tool for each project based on output and collaboration requirements.
  • Uphold a cohesive visual language across brand, marketing, and website efforts, owning the execution of compelling designs and contributing to the ongoing refinement of the brand in partnership with the Creative Director.
  • Create unique, sub-branded visual styles for specific campaigns, while still maintaining alignment to overall brand tone and visual voice.
  • Work closely with the Creative Director to establish project and campaign visual direction, contributing to a design-led culture that prioritizes clear communication, user experience, and visual impact.
  • Gather requirements from stakeholders and translate them into clear, effective design solutions aligned with business priorities.
  • Use campaign performance data and feedback to refine and improve future design executions.
  • Stay ahead of design, technology, and digital marketing trends to proactively evolve our creative strategy and maintain a competitive edge.
  • Independently manage complex design projects from brief through final delivery, ensuring accuracy and quality.

The listed responsibilities are not exhaustive and additional responsibilities may be assigned based on the evolving needs of the organization. We are seeking a dynamic individual who is able to adapt and take on new responsibilities as they arise.
