• Partner closely with the marketing team to understand strategy, business goals, timelines and planning, while being a strong voice for creative 
• Translate marketing briefs into creative direction, ensuring final creative delivers on the needs of the business
• Participate and help facilitate the creative development: brainstorming, ideation sessions, and concepting
• Collaborate with cross-functional partners through the implementation phase to realize creative vision

What You Have

• 8+ years experience in design, creative, or art direction
• Extensive experience working in-house for B2C technology brands
• Experience managing a team of both creative designers and copywriters
• Ability to build collaborative partnerships with other Marketing members, Creative, Product, Product Design, and Content teams
• Strong portfolio and demonstrated display of brand design systems, creative marketing campaigns, and bringing new brands to life
• Ability to understand and discuss business strategy as it relates to creative
• Excellent communication, presentation, and organizational skills
• Excellent in process, team build out, and optimization 

What You’ll Get

• Competitive compensation
• Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance
• PTO, company-paid holidays, parental leave
• 401K, wellness and wifi perks
• Flexible, remote-first work culture
