Brand Design Lead

About Us

Forus is building an AI-powered network that connects doctors, pharmacies, payers, and biopharma to accelerate new science to patients. Our platform automates the complexity between a doctor prescribing a medicine and a patient starting treatment, including insurance coverage, financial assistance, and supply chain navigation. We provide this support free to doctors and patients, helping them get life-changing medicine faster, cheaper, and easier. The resulting network enables biopharma companies to design better research, launch new drugs more effectively, and invest in harder-to-treat conditions.

About The Role

As Brand Design Lead at Forus, you will shape how Forus looks, feels, and shows up across every external and internal touchpoint. You will own and evolve our visual identity, applying it across our website, campaigns, events, content, sales materials, recruiting, video, and the other surfaces through which people experience the company. You will combine exceptional design craft with broader creative direction, setting the bar for our work while building systems that allow the company to move quickly without becoming inconsistent. You will work closely with marketing, growth, product, partnerships, and leadership to turn company priorities into distinctive creative, and lead agencies, freelancers, and other production partners where needed. This is a demanding role, with a high level of autonomy and responsibility. You will be expected to “act like an owner” and commit yourself to Forus’ success.
