About the Role

We are looking for a Visual Designer to help shape and elevate Taskrabbit's visual identity across every touchpoint where Clients, Taskers, and Partners meet our brand. This role will own the art direction behind campaigns that are often the first impression of Taskrabbit, translating our brand platform into breakthrough visual storytelling across marketing, product, and partner channels.
