Job Description

Would you like to belong to one of the brightest design teams in North America? A tight-knit group of some of the best designers, videographers, and content-creators on earth. They’re scary-smart. They love what they do. And they’re using their creative genius to make the world a better place. This isn’t just a job — if you've got the chops, it’s a launchpad for a lifetime of success.

This job will give you ALL the feels:

At AlgaeCal, we’re driven by a single idea. To end the fear of bone loss. In the United States, an estimated 54 million people have crumbling bones. And they’re scared. Scared of fractures. Scared of breaks. And, most of all, scared of losing their independence.

The good news? AlgaeCal has the world’s only clinically-backed natural solution to this problem. We give hope to thousands of frightened people. If that excites you, you’ll find no better place to continue your career than at AlgaeCal.

You’ll love it here:

• You’ll be working with a great team . The creatives at AlgaeCal have been there, done that, and got the t-shirt. They’ve written slogans for Nike. They’ve designed creatives for Paula Abdul. They’ve written some of the most clicked headlines in human history. And the best part? They're friendly, funny, and easy to work with.
• You’ll use your powers for good. This isn’t one of those jobs that crush your soul with mindless tasks. On the contrary! You’ll be creating a wide range of engaging content that spreads a powerful message – bone loss is beatable.
• You won’t be micromanaged. We’ll give you a simple set of KPIs with crystal clear expectations.
• It’s not a sweatshop (mostly because the AC works). You’ll be relieved to know this isn’t one of those Madison Avenue gigs that expects you to work ridiculously long hours and frowns upon family time. We’re not like that! We enjoy our life, and we want you to enjoy yours too.

This job might be for you if you’ve got…

• A portfolio that knocks our socks off. We’re looking for your proven ability to create high quality design solutions for web assets, emails, packaging, and other digital and print marketing materials
• 1-3 years of experience in a design role. You’ll be able to provide us with examples of your work with graphic layouts, storyboarding, and prototyping.
• An encyclopedic knowledge of all things Adobe Creative Suite.
• Design ideas that sparkle brighter than Scarlett Johansson’s sequin dress. Show us how your design skills have elevated brands. There’s no ifs, ands, or buts about it - you’ll need solid experience as a top-notch Graphic Designer to succeed in this role.
• A brain the size of a small planet! In this role, you’ll need to think imaginatively and act strategically to deliver assets that engage, inspire, and delight our audience.
• A mastery of all-things graphic design. Sorry, but if you have to Google ‘Figma’; or you think a ‘funnel’ is a cake, this isn’t the job for you.
• A horrible allergy to sloppy typography.

If you’re reading this and thinking, “Wow, that sounds exactly like me!” We would love to hear from you. If it doesn’t, no worries! We’re only seeking candidates who will immediately light up this role.

What Will You Earn?

Let’s agree on salary and paid vacation once we know what you offer, but our goal is to pay above market rate for your unique skills.

You’ll also enjoy the following benefits:

• AlgaeCal Healthcare Plan (Premiums Covered 100%!), which you're eligible to sign up for after three months of employment.
• Flexible Stat Holidays with the option to bank days for later use.
• Weekly team lunches, bottomless snacks, and a steady stream of FUN events.

And above all, you’ll join a team that you’ll never want to leave. Culture is everything to us. Yes, we work extremely hard to change as many people’s lives as possible. But we know how to have fun and reward ourselves too.
