[Hiring] Senior Marketing Designer @Recruiting From Scratch

Role Description

We’re representing a fast-growing consumer insurtech company modernizing a large segment of the auto insurance market. This role will have significant ownership over the evolution of the company's brand and marketing presence.

• Own creative strategy and execution for marketing campaigns across paid advertising, social, email, web, brand, and other growth channels.
• Take ambiguous business goals and independently turn them into campaign concepts, creative direction, and finished assets.
• Create hands-on visual assets including digital ads, social content, static imagery, presentations, web creative, and marketing collateral.
• Develop simple animations and motion assets for social and digital campaigns.
• Work directly in tools such as Figma, Canva, Adobe Creative Suite, and emerging AI creative tools.
• Partner closely with Growth and Marketing to develop, launch, test, and iterate campaigns.
• Analyze campaign performance and use the results to determine what creative should change next.
• Develop hypotheses around underperforming campaigns rather than simply producing additional variations.
• Translate business objectives and performance data into clear creative points of view.
• Maintain and evolve the company's visual identity across marketing touchpoints.
• Determine where brand consistency is critical and where creative flexibility can improve performance.
• Collaborate across Growth, Marketing, Product, Engineering, Support, analytics, and leadership.
• Present and defend creative recommendations using both creative judgment and performance data.
• Proactively identify new creative opportunities without waiting for a fully developed brief.
• Own work from the initial idea through production, launch, measurement, and iteration.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in marketing design, brand design, creative, social, or a related design discipline.
• Portfolio demonstrating meaningful range across marketing campaigns, channels, and creative formats.
• Experience owning campaigns from concept and strategy through hands-on execution.
• Strong visual design fundamentals across typography, layout, composition, color, and brand systems.
• Hands-on experience creating digital, social, and performance marketing assets.
• Able to independently produce high-quality work rather than relying on other designers for execution.
• Comfortable moving between creative strategy and hands-on design throughout the same project.
• Experience using performance data, experimentation, and testing to improve creative.
• Able to take a loosely defined business problem and determine what should be built without requiring a detailed creative brief.
• Comfortable working independently within a small, fast-moving organization.
• Strong communicator who can work directly with senior leadership.
• Able to articulate and defend a creative point of view while remaining collaborative and open to feedback.
• Comfortable balancing creative quality with speed and measurable business impact.

• Familiarity with modern AI-powered creative and design tools.
• Experience in insurance, fintech, financial services, or another complex or regulated consumer industry.
• Experience working closely with Growth or performance marketing teams.
• Experience developing creative for customer acquisition campaigns and using performance metrics to guide iteration.
• Experience helping evolve or establish a visual brand while a company is scaling.
• Background in a startup or similarly lean organization where designers own work end-to-end.
• Experience collaborating with Product and Engineering in addition to traditional Marketing teams.

Benefits

• Base salary: $160,000–$220,000.
• Equity included.
• Fully remote within the United States.
• 100% employer-paid health, dental, and vision insurance premiums for employees and dependents.
• 401(k) plan with no employer match.
• Unlimited vacation.
• Remote work stipend.
• Two months of parental leave.
• Highly autonomous individual contributor role with direct exposure to senior leadership.

• Success is measured not only by the quality of the creative but also by what ships, how it performs, and how effectively it contributes to business outcomes.
