Role
Who you are
- 5+ years of in-house or agency design experience (in-house B2B SaaS experience is a definite plus)
- Strong presentation and communication skills. You know how to navigate complex/conflicting feedback and build consensus
- Experience working with freelance contributors, such as illustrators, production designers, copywriters, animators, photographers, etc
- Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud
- Deep understanding of current UI/UX trends, craft, and patterns. You’re excited to experiment with AI design tools and have an informed point of view on AI’s impact in the brand design space
- Well versed in web testing and optimization throughout the marketing funnel
- A deep desire to balance beauty and impact
What the job involves
- As a creative storyteller and craft-obsessed designer, you’ll create experiences that enable breakthrough campaign moments and optimize our web experience so that it’s a beautiful expression of our brand and a high-performance destination
- Additionally, you’ll get a beautiful new brand system to bring your work to life and evolve it across touchpoints
- We’re looking for someone who is a detailed systems thinker at heart but who knows when to break outside the box to bring bold ideas to life in new ways
- This person will work in tight collaboration with developers, marketers, and other designers on the team, and will report into our Director of Corporate Marketing
- Raise the bar. Set a new standard of craft and execute impeccable design work across a range of digital and physical touchpoints—including interactive web experiences, content campaigns, trade shows, events, demand generation campaigns, out-of-home advertising, and more. This is an opportunity to work across our entire brand ecosystem
- Elevate our brand. Design breakthrough brand moments that build awareness and drive affinity, utilizing and building upon all of the new components from our recent rebrand. You’re eager to take a complex idea and distill it into a straightforward narrative that clicks for our audience
- Unlock scale. Develop design systems and component libraries that maintain brand standards and ensure consistency, while enabling the entire marketing team to create and ship work efficiently
- Build a best-in-class web presence. Lead the design process–from wireframing to QA to launch–for interactive web experiences that drive huge business impact. You’ll partner closely with our dev team too
- Own the story of your work. Prototype designs in Figma, present that work to key stakeholders (including executives), and refine your work through cross-functional design reviews
- Impact the bottom line. Collaborate with growth, product marketing, and corporate marketing to explore ways to optimize campaigns and channels that drive new business pipeline
- Supercharge our output. Champion the latest design tools and tech (e.g. AI) to unlock new ways of creating impact and driving consistency at scale
Our take
When a business receives an email from a customer it can set off a chain of forwarded emails across the company, an inefficient process where information (and sales!) can easily get lost. Front exists to change this, consolidating all customer communications into a single shared inbox which can be accessed by teams of any size and completely eliminates the need for internal emails.
With more companies moving to remote working and eCommerce becoming the predominant form of conducting business, Front's product has been enthusiastically received by over 8,000 companies, including Mailchimp, Shopitfy and Convoy. However it is by no means alone in this space, with huge competitors such as Google and Microsoft providing communications solutions and other internal communications tools such as Slack gaining traction. Front may have an edge here though: its unified solution also provides automated workflows, ticketing and analytical tools that are either absent or less well integrated in competing offerings.
In 2022, Front raised investments in a Series D round and achieved unicorn status with a valuation of over $1 billion. It is moving to futher develop its product and increase its market share, hiring on new talent ahead of a possible IPO in the near future. Definitely watch this space!
