The Creative Team at Wealthfront is searching for a Senior Designer to lead the visual direction and executions for "Vested Interest", our editorial program focused on timely content around the surprising ins-and-outs-of the economy. The goal of this growing vertical is to empower digital natives to make informed financial decisions through timely, unique content that connects the prevailing macroeconomic news with their personal finance goals. You'll collaborate with our content team to ideate and deliver weekly visual assets for the program, which will include a mix of headers, charts, photo composites and illustrations to support a variety of financial topics.

About You

  • You believe in our mission. You know that money can be both intimidating and empowering, and you feel invested in our vision of how well-managed finances can reduce worry and enable our clients to live their lives more fully. You are motivated to make a meaningful impact, to improve the financial system, and to do your part to define a brand that is working to do just that.

  • You sweat the small stuff. You recognize that the line between ok and exceptional can be very, very thin, and you're innately driven to stay on the correct side of it. You make considered decisions in your work, can defend your creative choices, and are ready to revise your opinions in the face of compelling arguments because you care deeply about making the work the best it can be. You have high expectations for yourself and the people around you, and nit-pick the pixels.

  • You expect your work to serve the team. You know that your way isn't always the right way, and you're eager to find a way to contribute, even when it might be outside your typical skill set. You understand there's always more you can learn, and you look forward to opportunities to add to your creative arsenal.

  • You are resourceful and enterprising. You think like an owner, are solutions-oriented, and adapt quickly to the constraints and challenges of a nimble team in a fast-paced, rapidly growing business. You actively explore new tools and ways to improve collaboration, development, and execution of your work.

  • You create memorable, engaging things that might-or-might-not look like marketing. You have experience finding the moments that bring a brand to life.

Impact

  • Lead our editorial executions with a keen understanding of its audience(s) and business objectives.

  • Foster strong relationships with our editorial and marketing teams to streamline collaboration and develop opportunities that expand on our vision towards timely content.

  • Contribute to and refine strategic insights, enhancing the creative development process.

  • Deliver brand level impact through exceptional design craft, balancing expressiveness with clarity and scalability, and anticipating longer-term brand system needs.

  • Dive into early drafts and research materials to develop informed perspectives.

  • Share unique knowledge and craft skills to uplevel the executions of other creative teammates and our overall approach towards educational content.

Creative Development and Oversight

  • Ideate and produce assets from concept to delivery, working directly with content peers and incorporating stakeholder feedback effectively.

  • Deliver multiple strategic directions each week, testing our assumptions and uncovering surprising solutions.

  • Take on financial concepts with ambiguous visual approaches, driving them from concept to execution.

  • Collaborate with creative team members to evolve brand expressions and maintain brand consistency.

  • Adapt your executions and tailored messages and innovative executions across various media channels.

Preferred Experience

  • 3+ years as a visual designer in an agency, studio, or in-house creative team.

  • Experience working collaboratively with a team on a timely content program with a recurring cadence. 

  • A strong background and passion for both foundation digital creative (layout, typography, color) and experimental production (collage, 3D, illustration, AI)

  • Experience adapting consistent and effective visual expressions across digital, video, and social channels.

  • Bonus: Direct experience working with a content team.

  • Bonus: Technical motion production skills with After Effects (or a similar program).

  • Bonus: Effective usage of AI to illustrate concepts or final assets.

  • Bonus: Illustration or drawing skills.

  • Bonus: Financial background with investing or macro-economics.

If you're a creative with a passion for editorial storytelling and a drive to create impactful work, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now to join our team and make your mark in the world of money.

We're a remote-friendly team and open to candidates in the US and parts of Canada-with opportunities to meet and collaborate in-person for occasional company and team-specific events.
