Brand Designer

Type: Contract, W2

Location: Remote (Mountain Time Preferred)

Schedule: 40 hours per week

We are seeking an experienced Brand Designer to lead the evolution of a complex, multi-brand ecosystem into a unified, scalable brand system.

What You Will Do

You will play a key role in shaping and modernizing an established organization's brand by:

• Evaluating current brand architecture and visual identity systems


• Defining a clear master brand and sub-brand framework


• Creating a cohesive, scalable design system across multiple business lines


• Refining and elevating existing visual language to feel modern and timeless


• Developing comprehensive brand guidelines and governance standards


• Ensuring consistency across digital, print, events, environmental design, and marketing assets


• Providing recommendations for long-term brand system scalability

What You Will Own

• Brand architecture and hierarchy recommendations


• Master brand system and sub-brand structure


• Updated visual identity system (typography, color, iconography, imagery)


• Brand application examples across channels


• End-to-end brand guidelines documentation


• Design system framework for future growth

What We Are Looking For

You should bring:

• Experience working with multi-brand or portfolio organizations


• A track record of brand consolidation and unification projects


• Strong expertise in design systems and brand governance


• Experience building enterprise-level brand guidelines


• Ability to navigate complex stakeholder environments


• Experience supporting nonprofit, association, education, or event-driven organizations is a plus

Portfolio Requirements

Please include examples that demonstrate:

• Brand architecture and system thinking


• Master brand and sub-brand development


• Brand guideline creation


• Before-and-after transformations of brand unification efforts


• Clean, modern, and sophisticated design work

Brand Direction

The brand should reflect a tone that is:

• Modern, sophisticated, and confident


• Innovative and professional


• Clean and timeless

It should avoid feeling:

• Playful or overly trend-driven


• Cartoonish or overly futuristic


• Generic or overly "corporate"


• Literal or overly themed
