Location: Remote (6+ hours daily overlap with Eastern Time required)

Employment type: Contract to hire

About Edgar Allan

‍

Edgar Allan is an award-winning Webflow Enterprise Partner agency working at the intersection of brand and performance. We help mid-market and enterprise businesses move from brand clarity to conversion. In the AI era, a strong brand is how you get found, understood, and chosen.

‍

We're 65+ people working across the globe, with leadership in Atlanta, Georgia. Strategy, experience design, and technology work as one team. We have a front-row seat to the biggest shift in how brands compete in a decade, and we're building the practice, developing the frameworks, and doing the work in real time alongside our clients.

‍

The Role

‍

You'll join the Experience Design (XD) department, overseeing our design leads and partnering with Technology and Brand Strategy & Performance to make sure every project consistently delivers on both design excellence and conversion. You'll serve as engagement lead with clients across a range of web projects, and work with the sales team to lead internal marketing initiatives.

‍

You're comfortable in your own skin pitching to prospective clients, and you bring experience across a wide range of categories.

‍

What you'll do

‍

Set the Creative Vision
Synthesize discovery into high-level strategic tent poles that the rest of the project can build from, from first concept through launch.

‍

Direct the Work
‍You've got a design eye and the chops to back it up, but you're comfortable delegating and directing more than doing, and raising the skills of our designers and art directors along the way.

‍

Lead Client Engagements

Own client relationships and the quality of the work from kickoff through launch and beyond, leading workshops, reviews, and presentations with clarity and conviction.
Join new-business pitches, shaping the creative approach and helping win the work.

‍

AI-Native Frameworks
Knowing where human judgment, taste, and brand stewardship have to lead, you'll assess our current AI workflows and bring fresh insight and innovation to the process and the design team.

‍

Must-Haves

‍

• 10+ years designing brand-led websites and marketing landing pages, including 3+ years as a Creative Director or Associate Creative Director (or equivalent) in a team environment.
• A killer portfolio that shows your unique, strong point of view on fresh, bold design and storytelling.
• Expert-level Figma skills, including design systems, variables, and tokens.
• Working knowledge of how the web is built (HTML/CSS, responsive layout, CMS structures).
• Working knowledge of AI across your design workflow (design, image generation, animation and more), with real examples to show. We’re open to new tools, and Claude is our day-to-day.
• Extensive client-facing experience.
• Fluent, polished English, both written and spoken, with the ability to present confidently to senior client audiences.
• Availability for at least 6 hours of daily overlap with Eastern Time (ET) for client meetings, pitches, and team collaboration, plus comfort leading a distributed team asynchronously.

‍

What It's Like Here

‍

• Remote-first and people-first.
• We value curiosity, kindness, and clarity.
• You'll work alongside senior brand strategists, designers, and developers who care deeply about craft.

‍

Why Edgar Allan

‍

You'll have real influence on how we design in an AI-first era, direct access to clients and leadership, and a delivery model built for speed and iteration rather than long, linear projects.

‍

We're building the next web together. We hope you'll join us.

‍
