About the Role

Our digitally focused agency client is looking for a Digital Designer with strong email experience to join their small, collaborative team. This is a hands-on role for someone who’s hungry in their career, energized by fast-paced environments, and comfortable zig-zagging between clients and priorities.

You’ll work closely with creative technologists, account leads, and strategists, contributing to thoughtful, performance-driven design work—primarily across email, with opportunities to support web projects as well.

What You’ll Do

  • Design email campaigns end-to-end (approximately 80% of the role), including:

  • Promotional and campaign emails

  • Lifecycle and CRM programs

  • Modular, scalable email systems

  • Create all email designs in Figma, applying best practices for:

  • Hierarchy, accessibility, and responsiveness

  • Performance considerations and deliverability

  • Apply strategic design thinking to support campaign objectives and customer journeys

  • Collaborate with creative technologists to ensure designs are feasible and scalable

  • Support web projects (~20% of the role), including:

  • Concepting the look and feel for new website builds

  • Contributing to early-stage design exploration and UI direction

  • Work across a diverse client roster spanning retail, automotive, and AI-driven brands

  • Manage multiple projects in a fast-paced agency environment while maintaining quality

    What We’re Looking For

    • 3+ years of experience as a digital or email designer (agency experience is a strong plus)

    • A portfolio that clearly showcases email-first design work

    • Strong understanding of:

    • Email design best practices and constraints

    • Lifecycle marketing and campaign strategy

    • Designing for conversion and performance

  • Advanced proficiency in Figma

  • Comfortable working across multiple clients and timelines

  • Curious, collaborative, and passionate about digital design

    Nice to Have

    • Experience contributing to web design or new site builds

    • Comfort working closely with developers or creative technologists

    • Interest in emerging technologies, automation, or AI-driven digital experiences

    Why You’ll Want to Be Here

    • Supportive, collaborative leadership and a close-knit design team

    • A team that’s genuinely nerdy about digital and excited to learn

    • Exposure to a wide range of clients and challenges

    • Opportunity to grow alongside an agency expanding its AI capabilities

    If you’re excited by email-first design, enjoy fast-paced agency work, and want to grow alongside a team that values smart, thoughtful digital craft, we’d love to hear from you.

To recognize the land is an expression of gratitude and appreciation to those whose territory we reside on, and a way of honouring the Indigenous people who have been living and working on the land from time immemorial. Land acknowledgements do not exist in a past tense, or historical context: colonialism is current and ongoing, and we need to centre reconciliation in our actions and in our work. We encourage our team, partners, and clients to learn about the lands in which they live and to work towards reconciliation.
