Excited to change the face of Enterprise retailers and brands for Groupon?

Groupon’s mission is to become the daily habit in local commerce and fulfill our purpose of building strong communities through thriving small businesses by connecting people to a vibrant, global marketplace for local services, experiences and goods. In the process, we’re positively impacting the lives of millions of customers and merchants globally. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. If you want to take more ownership of your career, then you're ready to be part of Groupon.

Excited to shape the visual style of content marketing for Groupon Coupons? To work on high-visibility PR and marketing campaigns and help steer the brand’s aesthetic identity?  This is exactly what design for Groupon Coupons does. We cultivate deep empathy and engagement for our customers, and translate this understanding into inventive, effective and delightful visual stories that cross channels and devices (email, web, mobile, social and tablet). And, as part of our growing team, you’ll play a pivotal role in building the brand.

Experience working with international design departments and integrating design guidelines across departments, platforms, and teams will be key in this role.

We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact. We're curious, fun, a little intense, and kind of obsessed with helping local businesses thrive. Does that sound like a compelling place to work?

Responsibilities:

• Graphic Design for all digital content marketing on Groupon Coupons, where attention to detail and love for craftsmanship is celebrated. You avoid derivative solutions, you are not happy being me-too, you push the envelope. You think systems (not one-offs). Your work is modular, scalable. You wield both the art and science of design into exceptional content marketing that drives actionable results.

• Conceptualize the visual components of PR campaigns alongside Inbound Content Marketing Executive and team of writers.

• Develop and maintain visual standards across our content marketing platform.
