This is an Email Designer role for Fat Earth Media, a creative performance marketing agency focused on brands of purpose, within the Red Antler Group umbrella.

Are you ready to have real purpose at work, driving actual impact for brands that matter? Are you tired of political work environments where people do just enough to get the job done? Us too. Welcome to Fat Earth Media. We believe that we have the ability to affect global change, and that a positive attitude paired with an all-in mentality is the only way to work. We’re a fast-growing team of experts who truly care about what we do, and are on a constant quest to improve inside and out.

We are seeking a world-class Email Designer to join our team. This role is for someone who understands that email design is more than making something look good, it’s about creating visually compelling, conversion-focused creative that drives action.

The ideal candidate combines strong visual instincts with strategic thinking, understanding how hierarchy, messaging, and design systems work together to create high-performing email experiences.

The Email Designer will execute email and SMS creative across a wide range of brands, from emerging startups to established category leaders. They should be fluent in digital brand expression while also being adaptable, fast-moving, and deeply collaborative. We’re looking for someone who can bring fresh ideas to the table, elevate creative beyond templates and trends, and work in lockstep with strategists, copywriters, and channel leads to continuously improve performance. This role requires a sharp eye for detail, strong communication skills, and a passion for thoughtful, effective design.

  • Work closely with copywriters to integrate text and visuals seamlessly in email campaigns.

  • Total Cash Compensation: $60,000 - $80,000 per year
  • Healthcare
  • 401k
