ABOUT THE ROLE

You’ll be the connective tissue between stakeholders and designers — the person who makes sure the right work lands in the right hands at the right time.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Triage and prioritize incoming design requests in Asana, maintaining a clean, well-structured project board at all times

• Assign projects to designers based on workload, skill set, and project requirements
• Run regular check-ins to surface blockers, track progress, and flag capacity issues before they become problems
• Build and maintain intake workflows, templates, and request forms that scale as the team grows
• Own the design team’s Asana workspace — keeping tasks, timelines, and project statuses consistently up to date
• Identify patterns in request volume and work with design leadership to plan ahead for high-demand periods
• Serve as the primary point of contact for stakeholders checking on the status of their requests

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• Exceptional organizational skills with a track record of managing high request volumes
• Strong written communication — you can translate vague requests into tight, actionable briefs
• Comfortable with ambiguity and able to make judgment calls without perfect information
• A calm, collaborative presence that stakeholders trust and designers respect
• Experience working remotely with distributed teams is a strong plus

NICE TO HAVE

• Background in B2B or enterprise tech marketing
• Experience using or evaluating enterprise browsers, SaaS security tools, or IT productivity platforms
• Familiarity with design tools like Figma — you don’t need to design, but knowing the environment helps

Benefits and Perks

• Medical, dental, vision
• Company paid Life and AD&D Insurance
• Company paid STD and LTD Insurance
• 401(k) with company contributions
• Paid Time Off & 9 Company Holidays
