We're seeking an experienced Web Designer to join a fast-paced Brand Creative team supporting high-volume email and digital design. This role is ideal for a detail-oriented designer who combines strong visual design skills with hands-on production expertise and thrives in a collaborative retail environment.

The Web Designer will be responsible for designing and delivering polished, web-ready creative, with a primary focus on email design and production. You'll work alongside other designers and cross-functional partners to execute upcoming creative while responding quickly to business updates, routing changes, and shifting priorities.

This is a hybrid contract opportunity with the potential for conversion to a full-time position.

What You'll Do



  • Design elevated, brand-right digital creative that supports both marketing and merchandising objectives.
  • Create and deliver high-volume email and web creative from initial design through final production.
  • Produce, optimize, and output final web-ready digital assets.
  • Review proofs and verify that email creative is rendering accurately before delivery.
  • Work on upcoming creative while simultaneously managing revisions, routing changes, and final deliverables.
  • Source and select imagery to support digital creative.
  • Edit, crop, retouch, and composite photography for digital applications.
  • Incorporate animation and motion into digital creative as needed.
  • Stay closely connected to business updates and quickly incorporate changes into creative.
  • Partner with designers and cross-functional teams to develop creative solutions for evolving business needs.
  • Maintain exceptional accuracy and attention to detail throughout the design, proofing, and production process.
  • Manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.


What We're Looking For



  • 4-5+ years of professional digital/web design experience.
  • Advanced/expert proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, particularly:

    • Photoshop
    • Illustrator
    • After Effects
    • Adobe XD


  • Hands-on Figma experience is required.
  • Strong animation/motion design capabilities.
  • Advanced Photoshop skills, including photo editing, compositing, cropping, and image manipulation.
  • Strong design fundamentals across typography, imagery, composition, and color.
  • Working knowledge of web and digital design best practices.
  • Proven ability to take projects from initial concept through final production and delivery.
  • Experience producing a high volume of digital assets while maintaining accuracy and consistency.
  • Highly organized with exceptional attention to detail.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to clearly communicate changes, updates, and creative decisions.
  • Resourceful, proactive self-starter who can work independently while remaining highly collaborative.
  • Comfortable working as part of a team of designers and partnering across multiple functions.
  • Ability to prioritize competing deadlines and quickly adapt to changing business needs.
  • Awareness of current digital, social, retail, and design trends.
  • Familiarity with Dynamic Text Standards is a plus.


Preferred Background



  • Previous retail, fashion, beauty, lifestyle, or consumer brand design experience.
  • Experience working within an established brand's creative or in-house design team.
  • Senior-level design experience is preferred.
  • A strong and diverse portfolio demonstrating digital design, email creative, production expertise, and animation.
  • Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design, Digital Design, Visual Communications, or a related discipline preferred.


What Will Help You Stand Out

We're especially interested in designers who bring a diverse portfolio, strong retail experience, senior-level creative exposure, and demonstrated experience producing polished digital work at scale.

The ideal candidate is team-oriented, flexible, and willing to jump in wherever needed to help the broader creative team deliver exceptional work.

Work Environment



  • Hybrid work schedule
  • Company computer/equipment provided
  • Contract opportunity with potential for conversion to a full-time position
