Job description

7shifts is an HR platform designed to help restaurant teams thrive. With an easy-to-use app and industry-specific solutions, 7shifts saves time, reduces errors, and helps keep costs in check for over 55,000 restaurants. Our mission is to simplify team management and improve performance for restaurants, with a long-term vision of creating a thriving restaurant industry through the power of connected & engaged teams.

As a Senior Brand Designer at 7shifts, you'll turn our brand into design that resonates with restaurant operators, across web, campaigns, and everything in between. You'll work closely with the Growth team on web and experimentation while supporting brand work across the business. You'll report to the Manager, Brand & Content.

This is a 12-month contract opportunity with full benefits, offering the chance to make a meaningful impact within a high-performing team.

What you'll do:

• Design across a wide range of work, including web, campaigns, events, and sales and marketing collateral, adapting your approach to the format and audience.

• Partner with the Growth team, who lead web strategy and the experimentation roadmap, to turn ideas into wireframes, mockups, and responsive landing pages and web experiences that are usable, persuasive, and visually distinctive.

• Quickly absorb our brand and translate it into confident, polished design that resonates with our ICP: restaurant owners and operators.

• Use AI in your daily work, and build faster, more efficient design processes, templates, and style guides the wider team can use.

• Concept, iterate, and prototype simple, strategic solutions, and know when to push the brand and when to stay inside it.

• Collaborate with marketing, sales, product, and People teams, communicating proactively and managing multiple projects at once.

• Stay current on web design trends and bring fresh ideas back to the team.

What you bring:

• 5+ years in brand and web design, ideally in B2B, SaaS, or agency settings, with a portfolio that shows range across both.

• A proven ability to pick up a brand quickly, apply it consistently, and bring fresh ideas that resonate with the people we design for.

• Strong command of colour, typography, layout, usability, and responsive design, plus fluency in Figma and the Adobe Creative Suite (or equivalent).

• Daily, hands-on use of AI tools in your design work, the judgment to know when not to use them, and the ability to turn what works into repeatable processes.

• Experience partnering with growth or performance marketers to test, learn, and iterate.

• The ability to own multiple projects without constant direction, sweat the details, and present your work clearly, with real curiosity about our customers and market.

It'd be even cooler if you had:

• Hands-on web experience, like working with HTML/CSS, page builders such as Framer or WordPress, or collaborating with developers through GitHub and pull requests.

• Experience with motion or video.

• A background in or love for the restaurant or hospitality industry, and excitement about where 7shifts is headed.

This role is an existing vacancy and is part of our current hiring plan.

Our commitment to our Shifties:

• Opportunity: Our product is evolving in exciting ways, and we're focused on delivering even more value to restaurants. This momentum creates real opportunities to learn and grow. Whether you're honing your craft or exploring new paths, you'll be supported and empowered to own your growth and impact a product shaping the future of the restaurant industry.

• Challenge: We're tackling real problems in a fast-moving, complex industry. The work is scrappy and ambiguous, but meaningful. You'll think critically, act with intention, and shape solutions that make a real difference for restaurant teams.

• Culture: We're proud to be recognized among the best workplaces in North America. Guided by our mission and values, we move fast to solve meaningful problems and celebrate wins together. Whether through in-office and remote events, team offsites like Sparks, or everyday moments of connection, we create space for shared growth, collaboration, and fun.

• Equity: We're a Series C, VC-backed SaaS company, and we believe everyone should share in the success they help create. When we build together, we grow together.

• Health and Wellness: We support Shifties in and outside of work, knowing that what people need can change over time. From day one, you'll have access to benefits like health and dental, lifestyle spending accounts to a parental leave program built with flexibility in mind, to help you bring your best self to work.

• Flexibility: Our team is intentional around how and where we work, whether remotely, in person, or a mix of both. We prioritize candidates who thrive in a hybrid work environment with offices in Saskatoon and Toronto, ensuring in-person collaboration and connection when possible. Plus, we offer a flexible vacation policy to encourage everyone to recharge when needed. Oh, and our '90 Day Shift' program lets Shift work from (almost) anywhere because who wouldn't want to trade their desk for a beach view once in a while?

• Support: We set Shifties up for success with the tools they need, like the latest Apple tech, a home office setup, and some 7shifts swag to make it official. But support goes beyond day one. We're serious about professional growth, offering coaching, feedback, development planning, and opportunities to grow from within.

We know you might not check every box, and that's okay. If you're excited about this role, inspired to contribute to a meaningful product, and eager to share ideas that drive real change, we'd love to hear from you. We're building an inclusive team that reflects the diverse industry we serve, and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds.

We thank you for your interest in joining the 7shifts team!
