Senior Brand Designer

We’re looking for a Brand Designer who thrives on solving complex design challenges and elevating ideas into world-class creative. You’ll work across omnichannel campaigns, including upper/mid funnel media campaigns, performance marketing, and lifecycle marketing, shaping visual systems that scale while still allowing for creative expression. You’ll also mentor junior designers and collaborate closely with writers, marketers, and strategists to bring campaigns to life.

About the Role

• Create, evolve, and manage scalable design systems that can be utilized by stakeholders without requiring always-on high-touch support
• Lead the translation of campaign creative into digital experiences, ensuring usability, clarity, and visual consistency
• Partner with brand team, product marketing, and cross-functional teams to concept and deliver high-impact creative
• Balance big-picture thinking with hands-on craft — from key campaign visuals to production-ready assets
• Apply design frameworks to multiple marketing touchpoints (performance media, email, social, etc.) to meet marketer strategies while adhering to touchpoint best practices
• Understand business and stakeholder needs and build/optimize creative that drives impact
• Ensure work consistently meets high standards for design, usability, and brand alignment
• Mentor junior designers and provide constructive, inspiring feedback
• Explore motion graphics and editing opportunities to expand the team’s creative toolkit

Requirements

• 6+ years of design experience (agency or in-house), with a portfolio that shows both systems-thinking and campaign craft
• Expert proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite
• Proven ability to translate brand strategy into cohesive design systems and campaign executions
• Strong typography, layout, and visual storytelling skills
• Proficiency leveraging AI tools (e.g., MidJourney, Firefly, Runway) to explore, prototype, and extend creative directions
• Understanding of business priorities and goals and how design can drive impact
• Ability to mentor, inspire, and collaborate across disciplines
• Bonus: experience with motion graphics/animation, video editing, or creative automation platforms like Celtra
