Job Description

This role is responsible for leading design across web and digital experiences with a focus on scale, consistency, and modernization. The Creative Design Manager oversees both the quality of design output and the systems and workflows that support it, ensuring design can move faster without sacrificing clarity, accessibility, or craft. The role partners closely with product, engineering, brand, and marketing teams to translate strategy into repeatable, durable design solutions. A key focus is evolving how design is produced—introducing AI and automation where they meaningfully improve efficiency, iteration, and consistency, while maintaining strong design judgment and standards. This role manages a multidisciplinary team and is accountable for setting direction, providing feedback, and developing talent. Success is measured not only by what ships, but by how effectively design scales across platforms, regions, and initiatives over time. This is a hybrid role, based in the US.

Job Responsibility

  • Lead and manage a multidisciplinary design team across web and digital experiences
  • Deliver high-quality design work that scales across platforms, products, and regions
  • Drive the adoption and evolution of design systems, patterns, templates, and tokens
  • Modernize design and creative workflows through selective use of AI and automation
  • Partner with product, engineering, brand, and marketing teams to align execution
  • Ensure design quality, accessibility, and consistency across all touchpoints
  • Balance delivery speed with design rigor and long-term maintainability
  • Provide clear direction, feedback, and development support to designers
  • Contribute to roadmap planning and prioritization for digital initiatives

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in design or creative roles, including people management
  • Demonstrated experience delivering large-scale digital or platform work
  • Strong visual and UX judgment with an understanding of system-level design
  • Experience working with or maintaining a design system
  • Familiarity with AI tools used in design and creative production
  • Ability to collaborate across disciplines and operate within complex organizations
  • Clear communication skills and sound decision-making

Nice to have

  • Experience in enterprise or global digital environments
  • Background working across both brand and product design
  • Experience introducing new tools or workflows at team or organizational level

What we offer

  • Health & Wellbeing
  • Personal & Professional Development
  • Unconditional Inclusion
