Evolve Vacation Rental is a hospitality company with a mission to make renting a vacation home easy for both property owners and guests. Thanks to an unapologetic passion for hospitality, we now support over 14,000 properties in over 700 markets across North America. We enjoy earning each guest and owner's business - all while having some fun along the way.

Why this role:   

As part of our marketing team, our Associate Creative Director (Manager, Creative Services) will lead the creative development and execution of marketing assets that support our ambitious goals for attracting, converting and retaining guests and homeowners. We’ve established a great foundation for branded design and copywriting and you’ll have a personal and visible role in defining our next phase of brand standards, inspiring our creative services team, and expanding the breadth and depth of our marketing reach. 

What you’ll do: 

  • Lead our internal creative team of designers and copywriters, managing and mentoring teammates to improve their skills, productivity, quality, and impact
  • Apply best practices in omnichannel design, finding new directions for established brand standards while demonstrating fluency in design best practices for any medium
  • Understand best practices in copywriting, giving equal weight to brand voice and clarity of messaging based on audience and company goals
  • Lead and execute (in other words, not just delegate) creative projects that are on-brief and category-leading (including but not limited to website & blog expansion, landing pages, emails, digital and print ads, publications, internal communications, etc.)
  • Manage your team’s professional development, oversee hiring, and assess team needs and opportunities with empathy and maturity
  • Collaborate with other departments and leaders on improvements to internal and external brand applications, communications, and internal creative process
  • Collaborate closely with the marketing team and the organization at large under the supervision of the Director of Brand and Communications
  • Work closely with our digital and product teams to improve the performance of our existing web experiences while planning and executing ongoing website enhancements 
  • Update landing pages, emails, and other digital templates with a working knowledge of front end languages (HTML, CSS)
  • Participate in conceptual brainstorming to solve business problems, generate new ideas, and improve creative quality
  • Provide design support and/or source freelance design help for the marketing team as needed 

What makes you a great fit: 

You should be a natural leader and collaborator, conceptual thinker and tireless tinkerer, focused on making the people, process, and output of our creative team second to none in our category. You should be as comfortable brainstorming, mentoring, and contributing daily work as you are blazing new trails for our visual and verbal brand. 

  • 7+ years of professional experience in omnichannel graphic design   
  • 2+ years experience managing and mentoring multidisciplinary creative teams
  • Mastery of design and execution best practices
  • Detail-oriented creator and deadline-oriented manager
  • Flexible and fast learner with a drive for continuous improvement 
  • Ability to multitask, collaborate, and prioritize in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment with rapid pace of change

Preferred but not required

  • Degree in Graphic or Digital Design or a related field with emphasis on digital execution
  • Travel/Hospitality industry experience 
  • UX/UI experience 

Location: 

While we are all currently working from home until at least July, our goal is to eventually return to our beautiful Denver office and collaborate in person.
