Job Description

Envisionit is an award-winning digital marketing agency in Chicago, and we're looking for a Senior Designer who gets just as excited about the big idea as the pixel-level details. Maybe you're the person sketching a campaign concept in the morning and perfecting a landing page by afternoon. You care about the people on the other side of the screen. You're curious about what AI can do for your craft, but you don't let it do the thinking for you. And the constant change in digital feels more like a playground than a headache.

Here, you'll take ideas from the first spark all the way to the client presentation. You'll do it alongside a tight-knit group of really talented people who like working together and like hanging out, too. We are headquartered in Chicago and have a beautiful office overlooking Millennium Park and Lake Michigan in a hybrid work environment model (2 days in office/week).

What you'll do:

  • Concept big campaigns: Lead and collaborate on campaign ideas that come to life across paid social, display, landing pages, and email.
  • Design websites from the user up: Turn user needs, journeys, and behaviors into intuitive layouts, page templates, and interactions that feel effortless and drive action.
  • Build systems that scale: Create wireframes, prototypes, design systems, and component libraries that follow best practices for usability, accessibility, responsive design, and conversion.
  • Evolve our clients' brands: Break clients out of the sea of sameness by bringing their brands to life across digital touchpoints with work people remember.
  • Turn strategy into visuals: Translate strategy, research, and data into strong executions, partnering with copywriters on hierarchy and messaging.
  • Work smarter with AI: Use AI tools to explore ideas faster, prototype, and streamline production, while keeping human insight and craft at the center.
  • Collaborate across disciplines: Partner with creative directors, motion designers, copywriters, SEO, production, strategy, analytics, and development to deliver on client goals.
  • Present and recommend: Share your work with clients, walk them through the strategy and UX thinking behind it, and bring recommendations to the table.

What we're looking for:

  • 5+ years of design experience and a portfolio showing website and integrated campaign work
  • Deep website design expertise grounded in UX fundamentals: information architecture, user flows, wireframing, prototyping, responsive design, and WCAG accessibility
  • The ability to build cohesive visual identity systems (logo, color, type, iconography, imagery, guidelines) that scale across campaigns and sites
  • Hands-on experience using AI to speed up concepting, iteration, prototyping, or production, plus the judgment to know where human craft matters most
  • Fluency in Figma and Adobe Creative Cloud, and an eagerness to explore new tools
  • Confidence presenting to internal teams and clients with clear strategic reasoning
  • A true collaborator who's curious, organized, and stays calm when deadlines stack up

Portfolio with relevant design samples is required at time of submission, including password if applicable.

Perks, Salary & Benefits:

The salary range for this position is $85,000 - 95,000 USD. This is a good-faith estimate of the base pay scale for this position and any potential offers will ultimately be determined based on experience, education, skill set, and performance in the interview process.

Our benefits include:

  • A hybrid office model, with the option to WFH 2+ days/week
  • A minimum of 20 days off yearly + 12 company holidays + summer hours
  • Medical, Dental, Vision, Life & Disability Insurance
  • Employer-matched 401k
  • Transit benefits, corporate discount programs, free fitness center membership
  • Career pathing, dedicated budget towards opportunities for professional growth
  • A culture focused on collaboration, curiosity & support, with regular events, volunteerism, and an employee-led recognition program
