About the role

We’re hiring a Senior Brand Designer to shape how Flexport shows up in the world, from our website and campaigns to the keynote in front of a thousand people.

• Brief and manage outside designers, agencies, and freelancers so their work arrives on time and looks like Flexport.

What you’ll bring

• 5 to 7 years in brand design, visual communication, or a similar creative role, ideally at a fast-moving tech or business-to-business (B2B) company.

• Deep skill in Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud, comfort in Keynote and Google Slides, and hands-on time with Canva and Claude Design.
• Motion skills in After Effects or a similar tool such as Rive, Lottie, or Jitter, plus the ability to storyboard and direct short video.
• A daily habit of using AI in your creative process, and opinions about where it helps and where it falls short.
• Experience evolving brand guidelines and building templates for people who aren’t designers.
• The project management and communication skills to juggle several workstreams and stakeholders, and the confidence to present your work to executives.
• Experience managing creative vendors or freelancers.
