The Opportunity

You’ll shape how WHC shows up online, and how quickly our marketing ideas become high-performing campaigns.

Reporting to the Marketing \& Communications Manager, you’ll bring together two capabilities that rarely sit in one role: senior-level digital design and AI-enabled creative systems. You’ll design the landing pages, campaign assets, paid-ad creative, and visual experiences people see first, while building repeatable workflows that help turn a strong concept into a complete, on-brand campaign faster.

Design remains the craft and your judgment decides what ships. AI, automation, templates, and systems are the multiplier. This is a hands-on role for someone who can move from brief to concept to production, work directly in WordPress, and improve the work continuously using performance data, testing, and feedback.

What You'll Do

• Design high-performing visuals for landing pages, campaigns, paid advertising, social media, sales collateral, and promotional materials.
• Create layouts, graphics, and digital assets that are clear, usable, accessible, and built to convert.
• Own and evolve WHC’s visual identity across digital marketing channels while maintaining brand consistency.
• Apply senior-level creative judgment to decide which concepts, variations, and executions are ready to ship.
• Use creative AI tools, including image and video generation, design copilots, and language models, to develop and refine work.
• Turn strong concepts into complete sets of on-brand variations and campaign assets efficiently.
• Build reusable workflows, prompts, templates, components, and automations that multiply the team’s output.
• Evaluate and introduce emerging AI tools and techniques where they materially improve speed, quality, or experimentation.
• Design and build conversion-focused landing pages directly in WordPress using Gutenberg, Elementor, or similar tools.
• Take ownership from concept through production-ready implementation, minimizing unnecessary handoffs.
• Create reusable templates and components that make future campaign execution faster and more consistent.
• Iterate based on performance, user feedback, heatmaps, A/B tests, and campaign results.
• Use HTML and CSS, with basic JavaScript where helpful, to customize layouts and bring designs to life.
• Ensure implementations are responsive, fast, accessible, and aligned with web and SEO fundamentals.
• Make routine content and design updates without relying on a full development cycle.
• Partner with Marketing, Content, Product, and Development teams to launch quickly and improve continuously.
• Proactively identify and implement improvements that strengthen creative quality, campaign performance, brand consistency, or execution speed.

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience in web design, digital design, graphic design, or a closely related role.
• A strong portfolio showcasing web design, landing pages, digital campaigns, brand systems, and conversion-focused creative work; please include it with your application.
• Advanced proficiency with Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, or comparable professional design tools.
• Hands-on experience designing, building, and publishing pages in WordPress.
• Demonstrated ability to use AI tools, automation, templates, or repeatable workflows to improve creative output and execution speed.
• Working knowledge of HTML and CSS; basic JavaScript knowledge is an asset.
• Strong understanding of responsive design, UX fundamentals, accessibility, web performance, and SEO basics.
• A performance mindset: you care about what converts, not only what looks good.
• Autonomy, sound judgment, curiosity, and a bias toward shipping, testing, and improving.
• Strong communication skills in English and French.

Nice to Have

• Experience in web hosting, SaaS, domains, ecommerce, or another technology environment.
• Experience with Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, heatmaps, or A/B testing tools.
• Motion design or video-editing experience.
• Experience shipping creative at high volume in a fast-moving growth, startup, ecommerce, or campaign-driven environment.

Why Join WHC?

• A collaborative team culture where your work has a visible impact on growth and the customer experience.
• Competitive compensation and benefits with a flexible hybrid work model.
• Access to training, mentorship, and career-development opportunities.
• Frequent gatherings, lively 5 à 7s, a vibrant social club, and memorable holiday parties.
• A bright, renovated office in Little Italy with a fully stocked kitchen and a game room featuring ping-pong, foosball, Nintendo, Nerf toys, and a library.
• Certified a Great Place to Work® for five years running, because we believe work should be fun, fulfilling, and rewarding.
