We are hiring on behalf of our client – an American media company with an office in Warsaw. They run large-scale newsletter and web operations across finance, health, and business verticals. The design team ships high-volume landing pages and web properties that directly impact revenue. Speed and quality are the two things measured above everything else.
The role
This is a leadership role at the intersection of design, marketing, and execution. You will own the design pipeline end to end: leading projects from brief to launch, managing and developing a team of designers including leads who report into you, and acting as the central traffic manager for all design work across the operation.
You are not just coordinating. You are setting the creative direction, reviewing work in progress, pushing the standard higher, and making sure nothing loses momentum. You bring your own point of view on what makes a page convert — and you apply it every day.
What you will own
Design projects end to end: brief, creative direction, review, launch
Traffic management for all design requests across the operation
Team development: regular reviews, feedback, skill plans, hiring
Conversion thinking: you know what makes a page perform, not just look good
Design systems and workflows: briefs, review cycles, handoffs, version control
Must-have
4+ years in design project management, creative operations, or a similar leadership role at a fast-paced agency or in-house team
Strong understanding of web design and design fundamentals — you give useful feedback and tell good work from average
Strong understanding of marketing and conversion — landing pages, not just aesthetics
Proven experience leading and developing a design team, not just coordinating one
Ability to traffic-manage high-volume design work across multiple projects simultaneously
AI-first operator — you already use AI across ideation, briefing, research, image generation, and project management. This is your default, not an experiment
