Using smart technology, we take financial services that are often confusing, opaque and expensive and make them transparent and low-cost for everyone. We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with over 3+ million users who trust us with more than $100 billion in assets.
Our teams ship often and make an impact with groundbreaking ideas. We're looking for talented people who keep it simple and value collaboration and humility as we continue to create inclusive and high-performing teams where people can be inspired to do their best work.
About the Brand Design Team
As our Brand Design Director, you will define the visual identity and vision for Wealthsimple and lead a talented team of designers, animators, and producers to develop brand-defining work that lets the world know we set the standard for design and visuals, but never lack humanity
As the Design Director, Brand at Wealthsimple, you will be responsible for leading a team of diverse designers across multiple disciplines, including 3D, motion, and brand design. You will work closely with various teams, including Integrated & Marketing Operations, Art Direction, Editorial, and Copywriting, to ensure cohesive, high-quality design outputs that reflect Wealthsimple's unique brand and resonate with our audience.
This is a leadership role, but we are looking for someone who is capable of contributing at an individual designer level, with a strong portfolio that demonstrates exceptional design skills and strategic thinking. While you will lead and mentor a small, talented team, your primary impact will stem from your unparalleled design taste and hands-on contributions. We're looking for a seasoned designer who can transition between strategic leadership and design execution.
You will work cross-functionally with teams to ensure alignment across all touchpoints of the Wealthsimple experience.
