Job Summary:

We’re looking for a contract Graphic Designer to support our Lifecycle Marketing team, with a focus on evergreen and flow-based creative across email and SMS.

This role is ideal for someone who is highly organized, fast-moving, collaborative, and excited by the intersection of brand storytelling and performance marketing. You’ll work closely with creative, copy, and lifecycle marketing partners to conceptualize and execute customer-facing assets that drive engagement, conversion, efficiency and long-term customer value.

This is a production-heavy role, but we’re also looking for someone with strong taste and creative instincts who can elevate the work — not just execute against templates.

What You'll Do:

• Design evergreen and automated/flow/triggered lifecycle email campaigns, such as (but not limited to):
  • Promotional and seasonal messaging
  • Style and room guide messaging
• Welcome series
• Abandonment flows
• Post-purchase journeys
• Winback campaigns
• VIP/anniversary journeys
• Evergreen campaign assets such as:
• Create supporting SMS visual assets (such as MMS and RCS) and lightweight motion/GIF/video treatments
• Translate brand direction into retention-focused creative systems that feel elevated while still driving performance
• Iterate quickly based on stakeholder feedback, A/B testing learnings, and business/lifecycle team needs
• Collaborate closely with copywriters, lifecycle marketers, creative leads, and project managers
• Work within existing templates and systems while also helping evolve, optimize, catalogue, and maintain them
• Maintain strong attention to detail across typography, hierarchy, cropping, layout, and responsive/mobile-first design
• Organize files and maintain clean handoff practices for developers and production partners

 

What You'll Need to Have:

Required:

• 3–5+ years of graphic design experience, ideally in ecommerce, DTC, fashion, lifestyle, home, beauty, or consumer brands
• Strong portfolio showcasing email, CRM/retention, SMS marketing work
• Excellent understanding of hierarchy, pacing, conversion-minded / data-driven design, and responsive layouts
• Ability to balance brand storytelling with performance objectives
• Comfortable working quickly and iterating in a high-volume environment
• Strong organizational and communication skills
• Experience designing within established systems while contributing fresh ideas
• Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite
• Experience with motion/GIF creation is a plus
• Familiarity with lifecycle marketing platforms and email best practices is a plus

Preferred:

• Light video editing experience
• Experience with A/B testing creative
• Understanding of retention metrics and customer lifecycle strategy
• Experience working with modular email systems or component-based design
• Basic understanding of HTML email limitations and responsive behavior
• Basic understanding of SMS and different multimedia types such as MMS and RCS

Contract Details:

• Contract / freelance role
• Rate: $60-70/hr 1099
• Remote-friendly
• Approximate weekly hours: 30-40 hrs per week
• Duration: 6 months+
• Potential for extension based on business needs

 

To apply, please share your portfolio along with relevant examples of email, SMS, CRM, or retention-focused creative work.
