Quatrain Creative

Quatrain is a fully remote, woman-owned content agency that blends strategy, storytelling, and design to create high-impact content. For more than a decade, our team of experienced writers, designers, and content strategists has worked with B2B brands across industriesfrom education to technologyto craft compelling blog posts, case studies, ebooks, videos, and more. Our values define everything we do, and we are deeply committed to a culture that is positive, transparent, collaborative, and grounded in trust. Our team members enjoy flexible schedules, family-friendly PTO policies, and true work-life balance.

We're looking for a hands-on Design Lead to own the quality and execution of our design work. You'll split your time between creating design work yourself and leading a small team of freelance designers. You'll develop creative briefs, review deliverables, and help ensure projects meet client expectations and high creative standards while staying on schedule and within budget. You will represent our design team in client meetings, confidently communicating with clients and leading design discussions. You'll also contribute to the evolution of our agency's website and internal creative processes.

Please note: This is not a branding, web, or marketing campaign design role. We specialize in designing content-heavy marketing assets for B2B companies, and we're looking for someone with deep experience creating polished, professional editorial-style marketing assets.

Our ideal candidate has an exceptional portfolio featuring ebooks, guidebooks, white papers, case studies, sales collateral, slide decks, infographics, and other editorial-style marketing assets. Many of our projects are +20 pages and require expert typography, page layout, information hierarchy, and production skills in Adobe InDesign and PowerPoint.

* If your experience is primarily in branding, UI/UX, websites, paid media, packaging, environmental design, illustration, or advertising campaigns, this role is likely not the right fit.

• Produce high-quality design work for multiple clients (approximately 50-70% of your time).
• Design long-form marketing assets including ebooks, guidebooks, case studies, white papers, sales collateral, slide decks, and infographics with a strong emphasis on typography, layout, and readability.
• Manage and mentor a small group of freelance designers.
• Write creative briefs and translate client needs into actionable design direction.
• Review and provide feedback on design deliverables.
• Attend client meetings as the design lead and communicate creative decisions clearly.
• Coordinate design workflows and maintain consistency across projects.
• Build and maintain internal style guides for each of our clients.
• Improve and maintain the agency website and other internal creative assets.
• Help establish design standards, templates, and processes as the agency grows.

• Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design or related field.
• 5+ years of professional graphic or digital design experience, preferably in an agency or client services environment.
• Experience leading or mentoring designers, freelancers, or creative teams.
• Confidence leading client meetings, advising clients on design direction, presenting creative work, and communicating design decisions to clients.
• Experience developing creative briefs and translating business goals into effective visual solutions.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to provide thoughtful, constructive design feedback.
• Excellent organization and project management skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Proficiency with PowerPoint and Adobe Creative Cloud, with advanced knowledge of Adobe InDesign.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment with little direction or oversight.
• Must reside in Eastern or Central time zone and be available to work Eastern business hours.
• A portfolio is required and should demonstrate significant experience designing long-form, content-heavy marketing materials. We're specifically looking for work such as ebooks, guidebooks, white papers, case studies, sales sheets, slide decks, infographics, and other editorial-style business collateral. Experience focused primarily on branding, logos, websites, UI/UX, packaging, environmental graphics, or paid advertising does not align with the primary responsibilities of this role.

• Experience with web design and tools like Webflow
• Experience with PM tools like Monday, Asana, or Wrike
• Experience designing for B2B clients in tech or education
• Basic motion graphics experience

• $80,000/yr salary
