Webflow is a visual web development platform that empowers designers and developers to create unique experiences for the web, without code. We started out offering intuitive design tools and now we’re empowering teams to build complex data-driven websites with complex logic. Designers will soon have the tools to build full-fledged web applications, not just websites.

We recently raised $140M in Series B funding to empower more creatives to build for the web. Some of investors include Accel, Capital G, Silversmith Partners, and Rainfall Ventures. 

We’re looking for a brand strategist and design leader that cares deeply about operational efficiency. You will focus on up-leveling our brand to reflect this expansion into web applications, to thoughtfully grow and develop the brand design team, and to improve cross-functional operations with Marketing. This role will work closely with the design and marketing leadership teams to develop brand positioning, brand voice, and brand design frameworks/systems. 

The team will look to you to help set the bar for quality and innovation. You're a strong collaborator and relationship builder and can easily influence decisions at the leadership level. You build trust with your team by leading through influence, mentorship, and enablement. You're very comfortable in a fast-changing environment and in a new industry that’s full of ambiguous and interesting challenges.
