About Wunderkind:

Wunderkind is a performance marketing solution that uses AI and data to help brands acquire and retain customers through one-to-one, personalized messages across websites, email, text, and ads, guaranteeing a lift in revenue. Founded in 2010, Our goal is to scale a brand’s ability to create and grow customer relationships through websites, email, text, and ads. We believe individuals should have the freedom to choose the kind of internet they want. An internet that fosters genuine relationships with brands. An internet that treats humans like real people instead of “web traffic.” We also believe in empowering brands to treat their customers as individuals, satisfying their unique needs with tailored experiences and thoughtful communication. By expertly personalizing, automating, and scaling beautiful one-to-one experiences, Wunderkind helps brands acquire new customers at scale and keep them loyal for life.

About the Role: 

We’re looking for a Creative Project Manager & Designer to join our team on a 12-month maternity cover contract. This role is a blend of project management and hands-on design work—you’ll keep creative projects moving smoothly while also producing assets yourself.

You’ll partner closely with our marketing and design teams, ensuring priorities are clear, timelines are realistic, and deliverables meet our brand standards. At the same time, you’ll roll up your sleeves in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite to help design and adapt assets.

Responsibilities: 

Project Management

  • Manage the intake, prioritization, and delivery of creative requests using Asana.
  • Review briefs to ensure they are clear, complete, and strategically aligned before work begins.
  • Create timelines, assign tasks, and monitor progress to keep projects on track.
  • Communicate with stakeholders to manage expectations and provide regular updates.
  • Balance resources and workloads across the design team.

Design & Creative Support

  • Design and adapt assets across digital, content, events, and internal channels.
  • Use Figma and Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign) for day-to-day creative production.
  • Ensure all outputs are high-quality, on-brand, and aligned with business objectives.
  • Step in to support designers by producing work directly when capacity is stretched.
  • Maintain consistency across all creative touchpoints.

Qualifications:

  • Proven project management experience, ideally within a marketing or creative team.
  • Strong technical skills in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite.
  • Excellent communication and organizational skills; you bring teams together and move work forward with confidence.
  • Strong working knowledge of creative workflows (design, copy, photo, print production, etc.).
  • Comfort managing up, anticipating needs, and keeping stakeholders on track.
  • Proficiency in project management tools (Asana strongly preferred).
  • Ability to review and critique creative briefs and outputs with confidence
  • A proactive, collaborative mindset—you’re comfortable switching between managing and designing.

This is a great opportunity for someone who loves structure but also thrives in creative production. If you’re equally comfortable managing projects and designing assets, we’d love to meet you.

The base salary range for this role is $80,000 to $95,000. Actual compensation packages are based on several factors that are unique to each specific candidate; including but not limited to skill set, depth of experience, applicable certifications, and geographic work location. This may vary depending on living location and market rate.
