## Job description

About [Nooks.ai](http://Nooks.ai): Nooks is an applied AI lab building the Agent Workspace for GTM. We design AI agents that operate across the full sales action set, from account strategy to prospect research and outreach. Building 0→1 has never been easier, but selling at the speed of the market remains the last frontier for AI. Our mission is to 10x every seller by automating the busywork so they can focus on what humans do best: closing deals.

Today, over 1,500 customers run on Nooks, including Notion, HubSpot, Cursor, and Rippling. We’ve raised $70M+ from top VCs like Kleiner Perkins, which made its first sales-tech investment in over a decade with us. Since then, we’ve tripled ARR each year for 3 years running and grown a high-caliber team turning the art of sales into a scalable science.

About the Role: We're looking for a Brand Design Lead to elevate the creative quality of everything we put into the world.

You'll own the visual expression of the Nooks brand across every marketing touchpoint, partnering closely with Product Marketing, Growth Marketing, Communications & Content, and Field & Executive Marketing to bring ideas to life through thoughtful, beautifully crafted design.

This is a hands-on senior individual contributor role. You'll design many of our highest-impact creative assets yourself while building a scalable creative studio through agencies, freelancers, AI, and trusted creative partners. You'll establish the creative systems, standards, and operating model that enable a small team to deliver work that feels world-class.

We're looking for someone with exceptional taste, strong creative instincts, and relentless attention to detail who believes great design is a force multiplier for every marketing investment. What You'll Do:

- Shape the visual expression of the Nooks brand
- Evolve and strengthen the Nooks visual identity across every customer touchpoint
- Establish creative standards, design systems, and templates that create consistency while allowing the brand to evolve
- Ensure every piece of creative reinforces the quality, personality, and ambition of the Nooks brand
- Bring our biggest ideas to life
- Design creative for our most important launches, campaigns, original research, executive thought leadership, customer stories, and marketing initiatives
- Partner with Growth Marketing to develop compelling, high-performing creative for paid campaigns, social advertising, and demand generation programs that capture attention and drive action
- Translate marketing strategy into visually compelling stories that resonate across every channel and stage of the buyer journey
- Help raise the creative bar across every marketing function
- Design exceptional digital experiences
- Lead visual design for the Nooks website and major digital experiences
- Partner with Growth Marketing to continuously improve website performance through thoughtful design and user experience
- Create digital experiences that are both beautiful and effective
- Create unforgettable in-person experiences
- Design the creative identity for executive programs, customer experiences, conferences, field marketing programs, and experiential activations
- Develop booths, signage, presentations, printed materials, environmental graphics, and supporting creative assets that elevate the Nooks brand
- Ensure every in-person experience feels polished, premium, and unmistakably Nooks
- Build a scalable creative studio
- Build a trusted network of agencies, freelancers, illustrators, motion designers, photographers, and other creative partners
- Art direct external partners to ensure consistently exceptional work
- Leverage AI to accelerate creative workflows while maintaining a high standard of craft
- Develop creative processes that help the marketing organization move quickly without sacrificing quality

What You Bring:

- 7+ years of experience in Brand Design, Creative, or Visual Design at a high-growth B2B SaaS company or creative agency
- Exceptional taste and creative judgment: you know the difference between work that simply looks good and work that creates lasting brand impact
- Outstanding portfolio demonstrating exceptional craft across campaigns, advertising, brand systems, web, editorial, presentations, and experiential marketing
- Experience designing across both digital and physical environments
- Strong understanding of typography, layout, visual systems, storytelling, and brand identity
- Experience art directing agencies, freelancers, photographers, illustrators, or other creative partners
- Ability to balance craft with speed in a fast-moving environment
- Curiosity about AI and excitement for using it to improve creative workflows without compromising quality
- Strong collaboration skills with the ability to work across every function within Marketing
