About this role

Parallel is seeking a marketing designer. In this role, you’ll be asked to lead multiple design projects that present our Parallel brand to the world. You will collaborate closely with the Marketing team as well as other functions that require support with building collateral that speaks to our providers and customers. 

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to:

• Build a brand: you are excited to grow the Parallel brand through powerful design
• Make an impact: you are motivated by a mission-driven culture
• Join a fast-growing startup: you love to solve ambiguous problems that don’t have a clear solution

What you’ll do: 

• You’ll work with the Parallel design and brand guidelines, collaborating closely with Marketing, Web Design, and Content counterparts to ship on-brand, resonant marketing and outreach tactics.
• You’ll execute on a number of collaterals, including but not limited to, newsletters, social media posts, website landing pages, forms, and printed materials such as company banners, case studies and white papers, and internal marketing collaterals.
• You’ll contribute new ideas for creative material, ensuring every designed touchpoint feels cohesive, excellent, and appealing. 
• You’ll work closely with the Marketing team and cross-functionally with the sales, clinical, and recruiting team on the company’s branding and brand guidelines, making sure that it reflects the latest at the company.  
• You’ll build templates and systems that bring efficiency to your work and enable your marketing teammates to support your execution. You’ll improve speed-to-execution while simultaneously raising the visual bar.
• You’ll tailor your work to our different stakeholders - providers, K-1 districts, students. You’ll devote yourself to building empathy for their individual needs, and prioritize diversity, inclusion, accessibility, and representation in your work. 
• Additional responsibilities to be determined based on capacity and skills.

What you need: 

• You have at least 2 years of experience in a visual design, brand design, or marketing design role.
• You have experience working with Hubspot and have proficiency with Design Tools, including advanced skills in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc.), and Canva.

• Your portfolio showcases a strong foundation of type, space, form, color, and visual hierarchy, and excellent visual design craft and stylistic breadth. 
• You have a demonstrated history of executing with excellence and are incredibly detail-oriented. Your files are crystal-clear and beautifully organized, always.
• You are a great communicator and have strong interpersonal skills, and feel energized when collaborating closely with both your cross-functional and design teammates.
• You are excited to work in a high-growth startup and are ready to roll up your sleeves to do whatever needs to be done.
• Optional but preferred: you have website design as well as content experience, and can support both roles as needed. 
• You’re authorized to work in the United States, and have native or bilingual English proficiency.
