  • Creative Collaboration: Partner with internal creative teams and external agencies to translate design concepts into functional, high-converting email experiences.

  • Strategic Alignment: Learn and align execution with broader company and LOB strategies, acting as a proactive subject matter expert to influence campaign decisions.

  • Project Management: Simultaneously manage multiple fast-paced projects, taking ownership of technical accuracy, troubleshooting, and meeting tight deadlines.

  • Cross-Functional Communication: Effectively present ideas and collaborate with business partners, creative teams, and technical engineers to optimize channel strategy.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • Experience: 2–5 years of dedicated experience in an email marketing, development, or design role.

  • Technical Proficiency: Expert knowledge of hand-coded HTML and CSS, with strong hands-on experience using Figma and Mac-based Dreamweaver.

  • Testing & Optimization: Deep understanding of email rendering quirks across mobile devices, webmail, and desktop clients using tools like Litmus Builder and Movable Ink.

  • Design Sensibility: Solid foundation in email-specific UI/UX, interaction design, and visual hierarchy.

  • Core Competencies: Ability to work both independently and collaboratively, self-manage concurrent deadlines, and maintain accountability for the technical precision of your work.
