Job Description

Work from anywhere while creating high-impact designs that fuel real client growth. As Halstead Media’s Senior Squarespace Website Designer & Graphic Designer, you’ll shape the visual identity of brands across a dynamic, fast-moving industry—bringing emotion, originality, and strategy together through standout website and graphic design. What makes this opportunity unique is the balance of deep creative ownership with perks that support your life and career: remote flexibility, equipment reimbursement, monthly perks (snack and tea/coffee subscriptions), 100% employer-paid medical (with dental/vision included), paid training and professional development, 15 PTO days to start plus holidays, and 401(k) with match.

What You’ll Do

This role is hands-on, collaborative, and rooted in clarity. You’ll shape the visual expression of client brands—sometimes carrying a project from strategy and UX planning through delivery, other times sharing phases with fellow designers—always keeping the client’s message at the center. Your work will help companies communicate clearly, stand out in their markets, and guide their customers toward confident decisions.

Creative Execution & Strategy

• Contribute across the design process: strategic planning, UX flow, page layout, and final creative.

• Work with Project Managers, Copy, and SEO Managers to understand the client’s goals, audience, and messaging—and convert that clarity into intuitive website experiences.

• Shape visuals, layouts, curated imagery, and graphic elements that support the client’s brand story and resonate with their ideal customer.

• Design websites in Squarespace using strong graphic design principles and platform best practices.

• Create visual assets using Adobe Suite, Canva, and Figma as part of the design and collaboration process.

• Explore innovative solutions using platform capabilities, custom code, and emerging design trends.

Project Ownership & Delivery

• Develop detailed page designs, navigation paths, and user-friendly structures that reduce confusion and increase engagement.

• Create original graphics, backgrounds, and visual elements that feel cohesive, intentional, and on-brand.

• Update and refine websites and website updates according to scope, feedback, and evolving creative direction.

• Deliver polished creative on time, with the level of precision expected from a senior craftsperson.

• Communicate with internal teams through Slack and Zoom to maintain clarity and momentum.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner closely with internal Project Managers (this is not a client-facing role).

• Collaborate with Paid Media Managers to ensure landing pages and visuals support campaign goals.

• Work with the Copy Team to align messaging and visuals into a cohesive StoryBrand-informed narrative.

• Support Social Media and Content teams with short-form, brand-aligned video edits and visual assets.

• Interpret feedback with professionalism—offering thoughtful creative reasoning while staying grounded in client goals.

• Share creative insights that elevate the team’s overall approach across web, ads, and brand assets.

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You:

• Naturally think in terms of clarity, audience needs, and brand storytelling.

• Care deeply about details—spacing, typography, hierarchy, usability—and understand how they shape user experience.

• Enjoy working across multiple brands and creative challenges.

• Are energized by meaningful work where your designs influence real business outcomes.

• Receive feedback well and collaborate fluidly with cross-functional teams.

• Are curious, growth-oriented, and motivated to continually refine your craft.
  

• Enjoy a a fast-paced dynamic work style. 

What Success Looks Like

• Websites that communicate clearly, look exceptional, and guide users effortlessly.

• Designs that feel fresh, purposeful, and aligned with the client’s message.

• Strong collaboration across SEO, Paid Media, Copy, and Social teams.

• Consistent, high-quality creative delivered on time.

• Work that strengthens client trust and contributes to long-term partnerships.

• A portfolio filled with intentional, strategic, emotionally engaging designs.

• On-time, and on-budget. 

Required Experience

• Extensive Squarespace website design experience (required).

• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Suite, Canva, and Figma.

• Working knowledge of HTML, CSS, basic JavaScript, and implementing custom code within Squarespace.

• Strong understanding of foundational design principles: spacing, grids, typography, hierarchy, and white space.

• Ability to research and apply relevant design trends.

• Nice to Have: Basic short-form video editing for social content (cutting, transitions, overlays)
