JOB OVERVIEW

Are you obsessed with what makes people click?

Do you study YouTube thumbnails, title combinations, and packaging strategy like it’s a sport? Do you know the difference between a thumbnail that looks nice and a thumbnail that actually performs?

We’re looking for a strategic, honest, and highly skilled YouTube Thumbnail & Packaging Designer to help us increase click-through rate, strengthen our visual positioning, and package our content in a way that drives growth.
This is not a basic design role. This is a YouTube growth role through visual packaging.

Role Summary:
You will be responsible for creating high-converting YouTube thumbnails for our long-form content and podcast episodes, while also contributing to the overall packaging strategy through title suggestions, A/B testing ideas, and performance-minded creative direction.

Right now, the role supports approximately:
6 thumbnails per month for our core YouTube channel

Within the next 60 days, this is expected to expand to:
10–11 thumbnails per month as our rebranded podcast launches (monthly pay will increase at this point)

This role is ideal for someone who understands that thumbnails are not “graphics.” They are one of the biggest levers for visibility and growth.

What You’ll Be Responsible For:

1. Designing thumbnails for YouTube videos on a recurring monthly cadence
2. Creating 2–3 concept directions per video
3. Helping narrow down the strongest concept based on strategy, not preference alone
4. Creating A/B test variations when needed
5. Collaborating on the relationship between thumbnail + title
6. Suggesting stronger title angles or packaging ideas when appropriate
7. Giving honest feedback if a concept is unlikely to perform
8. Maintaining brand consistency while still making the video feel clickable, modern, and competitive

What We’re Looking For:

You are not just a designer. You are someone who understands:
- click psychology
- curiosity gaps
- visual hierarchy
- facial expression / composition strategy
- title-thumbnail synergy
- the difference between aesthetic and performance

You should be able to:
- take a rough video concept and turn it into multiple strong packaging directions
- build on our ideas, not just wait for exact instructions
- tell us when our original direction may not be the best performer
- think like a strategist, not an order taker

Must-Haves:
- Strong portfolio of YouTube thumbnails
- Clear understanding of YouTube packaging
- Ability to create multiple concepts for one video
- Comfort with A/B testing variations
- Strong instincts for modern, high-performing design
- Ability to work fast without sacrificing strategic thinking
- Comfortable receiving feedback and refining based on performance goals

Brand + Style Notes:
Our brand has a luxe, polished, feminine edge, but performance comes first.

We are looking for thumbnails that find the sweet spot between:
clickable and strategic
elevated and on-brand

That means:
not overly soft
not generic “face + text” thumbnails
not overly minimal to the point of losing intrigue
not gimmicky, cluttered, or off-brand

We want thumbnails that:
- feel creative and tailored to the specific video
- use strong packaging instincts
- maintain some recurring consistency through fonts, tones, and overall visual identity
- still evolve based on the concept of each video

Here's our channel: ----------
We'd like to keep shock/clickable factor while making things on brand like the attached examples from this channel: ----------

Workflow Expectations:
- Attend the first creative tea ---------- eting of each month
- Participate in the creative team chat for title/thumbnail discussions
- Be able to deliver concepts on deadline
- Communicate early if blocked
- Be open to collaborative refinement and testing
- The second creative tea ---------- eting each month may be attended as needed depending on launches, campaigns, or testing priorities.

Growth Opportunity:
This role starts with our current YouTube volume and is expected to grow as our content engine expands, especially with the rollout of our rebranded podcast.
We are looking for someone who can grow with us and become a trusted part of our YouTube packaging ecosystem.

How to Apply
Please DM us with the following:
1. 3–5 thumbnail examples you created that you believe were strategically strong
2. A brief explanation of why you think those thumbnails worked
3. Your typical turnaround time .
4. A short note explaining how you think about thumbnail + title strategy

Applications without relevant YouTube thumbnail examples will not be considered.
Selected applicants will complete a paid assessment.
