Designing responsive, accessible and brand-aligned email templates for use across automated journeys and one-off sends.

Bringing UX best practices to the design of campaign landing pages, lead capture forms, and sales flows.

Partnering with CRM and Performance Marketing to test and iterate designs that improve open rates, clicks, and conversions.

Supporting other campaign and brand projects as needed across the wider creative team.

Collaborating with developers to ensure designs are implemented accurately and optimally.

Staying close to performance - using insights and feedback to continuously improve the look and feel of email and UX assets.

You’re practical, collaborative, and keen to design work that makes a difference in the lives of educators every day.
