Create high-quality and engaging content, leveraging Yardzen brand guidelines and style guides.
Work on diverse projects ranging from social media content and ads, emails, direct response campaigns, blog posts, pitch decks, marketing collateral, performance-focused landing pages, print pieces, and other creative placements you inspire. If it’s an extension of the Yardzen brand, you’ll touch it.
Ensure everything you deliver and contribute to drives our desired business outcomes.
Manage and prioritize the workload of producing multiple projects from concept to completion – if you’ve been part of a startup before, you know the drill.
Ability to both design creative assets as well as bring them to life. For example, stand up a landing page in WordPress or help post on Instagram.
Take and run with creative briefs, highlighting Yardzen’s unique brand voice and aesthetic across various deliverables.
Most importantly, flex into creative marketing tasks beyond a traditional production designer role. We’re looking for a designer who considers themselves a marketing generalist and energized by a broad scope.
