Job Description

Designer (Temp-to-Perm)

We have created a world where art and science are best friends. Known is a modern marketing company engineered for the unprecedented opportunities and challenges facing marketers today. We are over 300 people strong, pairing PhD data scientists with award-winning creatives, strategists, engineers and expert research teams to produce some of the most innovative and cutting-edge creative work in culture. We believe that when creative truly collaborates with science, strategy, and technology, amazing things can happen.

Our clients span the leading brands in finance, technology, media, CPG, real estate, and many other categories. These partnerships have earned us multiple awards and recognition: Emmys, Clios, Effies, Cannes Lions Awards, ProMax Agency of the Year, Digiday's Most Innovative Media Agency and most recently the AdAge A-List.

When we gush about our badass creative team we don't start with the Lions, Clio, or Emmy awards; or our long legacy of working with celebrity talent; or even being the force behind some of the most recognizable campaigns in the game. We start with data science and analytics, because what we value most is the real impact we make for our clients and their audiences. That's how we know our creatives are the best. Our end-to-end creative and production services have the ability to concept, create, shoot, edit and optimize across traditional advertising, digital, social, and experiential all in-house. That's how we produce the breadth of assets modern marketing campaigns require more efficiently, without sacrificing quality.

We couldn't create this award-winning work without seeking out and hiring the best talent. What does it mean to be a Knowner? We are curious innovators, knowledge-hunters who are constantly challenging ourselves to do better and be better for our clients, for our team and for our world at large. Our offices around the U.S. are open and while most of our people work in a hybrid setting, we are a distributed workforce with a number of Knowners working remotely.

But enough about us, let's talk about you.
