The Position:

FastSpring’s marketing team has a very fun mission: to inform the market and world about all the value that FastSpring can provide as a commerce solution for SaaS. As part of that mission, we are looking for a talented individual to bring their design eye and creative vision to our marketing and sales materials. We want our website, webinars, ebooks, sales decks and all marketing materials to be beautiful and easy to understand. That’s where you come in!

The ideal candidate for this job will come into it ready to contribute and help create great campaigns and materials right away, but with an eye toward expanding their responsibilities and becoming a design leader. At first the Graphic Designer will work within FastSpring’s existing brand aesthetic, but soon they will be extending, improving, and iterating on our visual identity and bringing their own flair!

This person will begin their job focused on prospect-facing materials such as our marketing site at fastspring.com, outbound email campaigns, social media images, blog images, ebook and whitepaper designs, webinar assets, and other items in that vein. They might also have the chance to help with illustration or design for technical documentation, sales materials, executive decks, and company-wide presentations. Creativity and clever communication is highly valued! Depending on the project, the solution may vary: animations, infographics, charts, graphs, visualizations, icons, you name it. The most important part is taking complex or intimidating topics, and making them approachable and appealing through great design.

The title of this position is “Graphic Designer”, but we’re big believers that if you have a different title that more accurately describes your contributions, there should be flexibility. Bring your ideas around that and let’s discuss.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
