Description

Changing consumer behavior in a cookieless world, the rise of GenAI, and the need to avoid commoditization is all transforming the practice of Marketing & Communications. As a Designer at Quietly, you will tap into our data-driven insights to help generate industry-leading content ideas, and roll up your sleeves and help bring them to life.

This is a contract opportunity for 3 months working up to 20 hours per week with the potential to extend.
