Job Title: Email Designer
About the Company
Our client is a retention-only email and SMS agency for direct-to-consumer ecommerce brands.
Job Description
You will design email campaigns for multiple client accounts at the same time using approved briefs and copy. You will work in each brand's own look and voice. The standard is one responsive, mobile-first design per email. Expect to produce 80 or more emails a month, mostly in Photoshop. You will organize and slice your work so a coordinator can build and schedule it in the platform without chasing you for answers.

- Manage your own queue in Asana and keep open tasks within per-account limits
- Complete one design revision round per email and explain your reasoning when a client pushes back
- Design pop-ups and forms when assigned
- Create simple GIFs or animated assets
