About the Role
We are an SEO agency serving local service businesses and ecommerce brands across the US. We are hiring a full-time Graphic Designer who can build beautiful, conversion-focused websites and brand assets for our clients, with SEO built into every page from the start rather than bolted on afterward.
This is not a "make it pretty" design role. You will be building real pages, mainly on WordPress with some Wix and Squarespace, that are designed to rank and convert. You will also create ad creative for paid campaigns and support our internal marketing materials.
If you like ownership, variety, and seeing your work drive actual results for real businesses, this is a good fit.
What You'll Own
1. Client Website and Page Design
Design and build client website pages on WordPress, Wix, and Squarespace
Structure pages with SEO fundamentals in mind: heading hierarchy, image optimization, page speed, mobile responsiveness, and internal linking opportunities
Mock up new website designs for existing clients and for new SEO sites
Work from client briefs and brand direction to create pages that look professional and turn visitors into leads
2. Ad Creative
Create ad graphics for paid campaigns, including static display ads, social ad creative, and multiple variations for A/B testing. Work on campaign creative, which means you should be comfortable taking direction and turning around several concepts quickly.
3. Brand Guidelines and Identity
Build brand guideline documents for new clients as they onboard, covering color palettes, typography, logo usage, and voice and tone direction. Create brand systems from scratch for companies that do not have one. Keep every page and asset we produce for a client visually consistent.
4. Speed and Systems
Use automation and AI tools to build pages faster. We are not looking for someone who designs every page by hand from scratch. We want someone who builds reusable templates and components, works efficiently inside page builders and automation tools, and is always looking for ways to cut production time without cutting quality.
5. Internal Design
Support internal marketing design, including social graphics, ad creative, presentation decks, and sales materials
Help keep the brand sharp across every touchpoint.
